11/6/23- since last update when you pause a book it doesn't stay at same place you paused it, it jumps back sometimes CHAPTERS! it's a pain trying to remember where you left off every time! Love it! I use it for audiobooks and there's so many choices! Easy to use. I wish there were an option to see which books you've already read though. But once you finish sh it book, it automatically recommends the next one in the series, which is super convenient."

The glitches were fixed that I had trouble with, so it is much easier to borrow a book now. Thank you I don't want to sound like a whiner but sometimes now the book skips to the beginning of the book or ahead and loses my place. Not sure why or if I'm doing something to cause it but it's is kind of annoying,wish it had a feature that would return to a previous location. Other than that I am loving the great selection of audio and ebooks and giving you a heads up on what book comes next."

Edit: fixed, thanks so much! Back to its old awesome self. Thanks for listening, Hoopla! Now if my library will just let me borrow more stuff on it...3 a month is pretty limited. Glitchy since last update! It keeps running in my phone's main swipe down menu at all times and never closes. Every single time I look, it's still there. It's obnoxious, and there's no way to actually turn it fully off. I've tried tons of settings. Please fix this issue now!!"
