Barely functional for searches

Why do they keep dropping worse versions of this app with each iteration? Seriously, the best was 2 apps ago during the pandemic. With the latest version released 1/2025 you can’t filter your search at all. Many titles are available as book, ebook, dvd, Blu-ray, or soundtrack. Not to mention multiple different items with the same title. Hence, the point of a filter. It’s completely useless and generates thousands of hits that are irrelevant to the keyword provided even when you select filter by title, dvd, or anything else. Might as well search using a desktop. The only slight improvement from previous versions, which adds no value to me is now the app indicates what titles I have borrowed or on hold via Libby. Not a good trade off in my view. The app was so good before, why was it revised and ruined?

Old app better

This new app just isn’t functional. Slow to open, constantly throws errors, does not retain account information requiring multiple account setups. I can go on, but I think you get the picture. Time to fix or roll back to the old app.
