Gail Borden Public Library 4+

Please bring the old app back! Or at least make this app make more sense! I think it’s cool to advertise the “Library of Things” because I’m sure not many people knew it even existed. Unfortunately, that’s the only nice thing I have to say about this app. It’s incredibly difficult to navigate and so frustrating. Gail Borden serves an enormous amount of people and the people deserve an app that makes them want to use library resources and this app ain’t it

This application is unfortunately a step in the wrong direction. There’s a loading screen when the app opens for some reason, and overall it’s just inefficient and slow. The library card functionality also forces you into landscape mode which just doesn’t make any logical sense from a user friendliness perspective. Overall, it seems like decisions were made without any thought as to if they were useful or warranted.

The previous app was WAY better to navigate than this one. I was trying to pull up my library card to take out some books and wasn’t able to because the app asked to search for a library even though it’s the main app for Gail Borden. Please fix this app right away because it’s horrible.
