What’s New
Version 5.9.9
cloudLibrary is going through some exciting changes. It reminds me of when I first got a universal remote control...I thought, “This changes everything!”
Ratings and Reviews
Amazing and reliable
Legit one of the best apps for audio books ever! You can get almost every book from all authors and they also have such a wide variety of books and specific genres too. There are times we’re very single book is on hold for some reason but it goes away in a few days. 10/10 app would highly recommend been a favourite for years!
Great app, big problem.
I’ve rated this app as 4 stars. It is a great app, especially as I’m linked to he Melbourne City library with a huge range of books available. Most of the app is great. However I give it only 2-3 each time I return to my book. It usually logs me into a blank page and I cannot see where I am up to with out closing the book and reopening it. Frustrating. I also have an issue with page turns at times. It too easily skips much of a chapter and starts a new one. I’ve had the frustration of seeming plot errors, only to find I’ve missed many pages in a chapter. My other issue is that I cannot find a way to contact the company responsible, either in the app or online. So the above is my feedback - I’d prefer to give it privately. Looking forward to updating my revie to a solid 5 stars when these issues are fixed.
Best library ereader, but ...
V4.5.18 (August 2019?] seems to be vastly improved. I've just realised it's been a while since I hated it, so I've increased my rating from 3 to 4 stars. It's now my favourite ereader, but it's still clunky at times. I had many gripes when I first started using this app, but only minor ones now.
There is NO DIRECT SUPPORT option within this app. Help requests are directed to your local library, which is near pointless if you want to report a bug. This might be why it's so buggy. If you want to report bugs, try the contact page of the bibliotheca website.
Page syncing across devices is still hit and miss. It's fairly reliable if you close the book on one device and then wait a few seconds before closing the app before opening it on another device. It's worth leaving a bookmark before closing it too.
It's the only library ebook app I know of that directly supports copying of text, and you can also highlight text and add notes. Tapping and holding to select text, oddly, often doesn’t work on particular words, especially italic text, and often parts of some words are unselectable. The workaround is to select another word, then drag the selection limits, using the odd but precise crosshairs thing that pops up if you start dragging quickly enough
