Axis 360 App Reviews

I love this app! My nearest library has all of the copies of the book I wanted checked out. I didnt want to drive an hour out of my way to check it out from another library, but luckily they had it as an ebook on this app. Also, its nice I dont have to lug around a big book. :D Definitely recommend.

I downloaded this app for myself but, found out that the entire family could enjoy listening as well as reading books. Great choices from the library selection.

I love this app. Much better than what I used before. So happy to be able to enjoy the library.

Generally the app works well, but there are three things that could turn it from good to great: 1) When leaving a book for more than a couple of minutes, Id like to come right back to where I left off, instead of having to navigate back to the book each time. 2) Id like the app to detect when Im in landscape mode when it launches instead of always defaulting to portrait mode. 3) It would be nice to have a nighttime reading mode.

Have been using this app for about a year now on iPhone and iPad. Excellent source for online library content.

The app is pretty helpful for the most part, but I waited over a month for a book(although the wait time was 21 days) and on the 32 day is was still on hold, so I checked in on the 37, and it was gone! The app didnt send a notification or email or anything telling me about the book. Then, when I went on to request it again, the wait time was 63 days!

Good enough app, though slow. Be sure to bookmark your place before you pause -- dont just pause, or it takes you back hours. I use it daily.

Works great in my experience and very smooth UI!

This is the best library app Ive ever used! It remembers me so I dont have to remember my number. It has a great search function. I have my books in a tab labeled "My Stuff" and I can access my downloads without wifi!

While this app can be buggy from time to time, its worth the aggravation for all the free ebooks and audio books you can check out of your library. Good selection of fiction books. Good quality. I rarely go a day without using this app.

This app has given me the very best way to read books through my public library. So much easier to use than the first app they tried out. Browsing, checking out, putting a book on hold or returning a book is beyond easy! Love that I no longer have to drive to the library--and if I want a book to read at midnight, I can find a good read in just minutes & download it to my iPad in a snap!

This version of Axis360 is a major step forward. Having gone from using 3 separate apps to a single app saves a lot of time and removes the redundant logins and passwords that were required for the different ebook formats. The app seems to be well built and is fairly intuitive.

Been using it about a week with no serious operational issues - yet. However, it has one very serious quirk. Each time you open the app, it goes through the Internet connection process to your library and slows down the whole operation. Most of the time, you just want to continue reading your book. You MUST wait to connect to the library, set up the page of the latest books at the library and THEN you can go to your book so you can continue reading. It would significantly improve itself if it opened to your books first and connected to the library only when you specially request that connection!!

This app is one of the worst reading apps that I have seen. It crashes constantly, and takes forever to load. I would have deleted this app months ago, if not for the fact that the library uses it for ebooks. I really wonder why the library doesnt just use kindle like they used to, as it is a similar app, but much better in almost every possible way.

Im trying to read an ebook and Im having a terrible experience. Why does the app put me back at the main menu instead of putting me back in my book when I have switched apps. This app should keep me in my book instead of making me start over. Fix it!

This app is so badly put together. It doesnt maintain state, so every time you switch out of it, it resets and have to start up again, including a *slow* trip to the Internet to do who knows what. In addition, when you renew a book after the loan has expired, you keep getting a message about the book not being authorized on your device, until you remove the local copy and download it again -- and lose your bookmarks in the process. Total garbage, my library system should be ashamed to spend money on this and force me to use it.

It keeps showing I have 5 books on hold. I have cancelled all books on hold. Will not update. Very frustrating. Why cant we search by text or Audio. Whoever wrote this program should not have been paid. If they donated it, it would be better to pay someone. Please fix. I love the choice of books if I could only put them on hold

As others have said, this app could be significantly improved. If I leave the app for more than a couple minutes, I have to reload the main library page then my library and finally I can open my book. One partial workaround is to turn off cell access so that when Im away from wifi I can skip the main library load page. Please update this app to allow me to go directly back to my book!

Havent been able to activate the app for days (error message 3525). Deleted, reloaded - no help. Restarted ipad, still error 3525. No opportunity to contact someone to notify of the problem. Proof of what you get with the low bidder.

OMG! It wont let me rate zero stars....They must either hire the wrong developers, pay them too little, or book/audio checkout apps are incredibly hard to code because this piece of work will elevate your stress level more than aggressive driving. Downloaded an audio book for a long drive. When I was ready to listen to it the app would not let me play it and kept kicking out and shutting off. I eventually lost the hold on the book trying to get the app to reset. If you pause a book for more than a few minutes, it defaults you back to the home screen to go through many clicks to get back. Forgot to save the bookmark when pausing? Sorry, youll have to click your way back and try to get back to your spot Try Overdrive instead- its no prize either, but at least it does audio better.
