BookMyne App Reviews

Saves me money!

Im a busy mom with a crazy schedule. Ive been saved from overdue fees by this app more times than I can count! I can renew my checked out items through the app and it buys me time to get my things turned in at my convenience.

Love It

I love having my library account at my fingertips. I can easily reserve, renew and check on due dates for my items.

So far, so good!

The app has worked well for me and has been easy to use!

List of previous books read

The app works really good for searching and ordering books, keeping track of what I have on order and if what I am reading is overdue. Where it really falls short is in letting me see what I have read. None of the sharing options work.

Amazing

Enjoying the convenience of browsing the library catalog through the app & ability to place holds on books. Just need for notifications to set up so the app shows a number to indicate the number of notifications you have.

AMAZING!!!

Its so nice to have an app like this. Ive never had a problem with it at all and I highly recommend this to everyone who enjoys reading! Love it!!

BookMyne

Works great on IPad 4. Also works faster than using the library app!

Great app, could use improvements

I absolutely love this app! It gets used regularly to keep up with my library account with ease. My only complaint with the app is that when youre canceling (or not trying to) the app does not ask if your sure youd like to cancel. There have been a few times that Ive wanted to delete one book on hold and mistakenly ALL of them get deleted because I pressed the incorrect button. Having a "second chance" button I believe would eliminate this problem!!! Thanks!!

Great app. :)

I love being able to keep up with my library acct. Renewing things is easy. I do wish there were a wishlist for titles that i dont have time to read right now. :)

Great app mostly

I love it apart from the fact that Im not able to reserve items on BookMyne. Dont know if it me or the app.

Problems connecting

This app used to be fantastic until recently when it lost my login info and reset itself. Now when I search for my library and hit the + it times out after trying to "connect to Internet." I also uninstalled and reinstalled, but am facing the same issue. Something is broken and unfortunately makes the app useless.

Have trouble renewing multiple items at a time, due date not accurate

Love that I can easily place holds on items from library and can easily see how many items I borrowed from anywhere, but I always have trouble renewing multiple items at a time and have to renew them one by one.

Love it, hate it

This was the best and I used it almost daily, but now it is so unreliable, connection failed is the message I get more often than not. Please fix so I can restore my love.

Great Basics but Hoping for Enhancements Next Release

Im a librarian whose system utilizes SirsiDynix for its catalog system and BookMyne has been a great mobile option for me to manage what books I have out and those on hold. That being said, there are some things that, if added, could take things to the next level. It would be nice if since my account is synced between the full desktop version and the mobile version if it would also sync with my saved lists. I built them so that I would have easy access to remember what to get next but cant access them on the mobile version. It would also be great if the Recommendations function could have the option of linking to ones own Goodreads account instead of just the curated lists provided. The final pieces regard the Holds section, it would be great to be able to see where in line you are for a hold on a particular book and also to be able to see any status updates like the "In Transit" that is used on the desktop version. All in all though this app is great for your functional basics and Im hoping that an update in the future will include some enhanced options for its users.

Perfect

Saves me from having to go dig out my library card every time I want to renew books on line. Gives warning flags when things are due. One comment, they should explain that when you cant select a book to renew it, it means you are out of renewals for that book, not that the app is malfunctioning.

Local library access

I love being able to see if my local library has certain books and being able to place a hold on them. The search feature can be a little clunky sometimes but I am satisfied overall.

Easy to use

This app is easy to use and is a quick way for me to track what I have out, what I have on hold and whats due. My only wish is that I could add books to a list for future reference without putting them hold.

Used to work

Graphics improved, but at the cost of functionality. Every time this app updates I have to put my library info in again. Stop writing over the files that store my info.

hold off on updating

While the previous version had some quirks, the update has some major bugs. A big one for me is that it "lost" my bookshelf of saved books. Followed by an inability to create a new one. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

You can now see holds in transit

I love that you can now see if your hold is on its way. The UI will take some getting used to but I think this is an improvement over the old design.
