4 ★ Generally a,great selection of books. Always quick to download them. Slightly annoying that it seems to stall and add the number of pages when I'm reading and just paused for a mo, I use the app on my phone and sometimes very hard to see whats available other the the most popular, new, etc etc which often are the same! But overall fantastic service. Thank you

4 ★ Update from 6/2021. Doesn't freeze like it used to. Works well and I'm enjoying being able to access library books, magazines, newspapers and audio books virtually. It still sometimes loses the page I'm at for no apparent reason, even when I bookmark it. So I have to scroll through and find the last page I read. I also like to read from my phone and enlarge the text, but it also sometimes loses the settings. Overall though it's a great service.

5 ★ I have found this app very user friendly. I am able to search easily for books or authors that I like, choose and download, ready to read at any time (subject to availability). I can alter the size of the font to suit my sight or change the luminosity according to my reading location. My phone is always at hand and with this app I have a library full of books at my fingertips.

4 ★ I use BorrowBox for audibooks downloads. There's a wide range of best sellers, but there could be more good quality fiction and nonfiction. Functionality is good, it's easy to find your way around, and there's a second by second progress bar. You can bookmark interesting bits. Sleep function is useful. You borrow books for 3 weeks then they are returned or renewed like a normal library. Bottom line: it's free, and if it had a better quality, wider range I'd happily give it 5 stars.

5 ★ I love Borrowbox, using it daily for both e-books & audiobooks. Even better, it's completely free! The only downside is your library may not always offer the books you want; a series may have the first 1 or 2 books, then the latest, but not all books in between-very annoying! At times having to reserve a book/wait to read it doesn't bother me as there is so much choice; if the book isn't available in the next few days I add it to my Reading List & see if any are green next time I need a new book

5 ★ Borrowbox has introduced me to reading ... without having to read! When you're always on the go, sitting down with a book is not an option. Listening to audioboooks has been really good for me in getting to know the classics and the modern authors. I shall continue to use Borrowbox ... I see or hear, no reason to stop! Three years on and I'm still using it. Still just as good! One request though. Can we have ALL the audio books in a set and not just part sets please? Thanks Can be frustrating!

4 ★ Really nice app it's good for when you want to listen to an audiobook but don't want to pay understandably though instead of paying you have to wait to get your book just like a library it's a bit annoying to wait but it's still a good app. Now ther is a Glitch bit I know how to Fix it, sometimes when you get a book it just cuts of to fix this keep pressing the plus 30 seconds button untill the line has gone all the way not the green one I hope this helps nice app

3 ★ App is fine to use. Not wowed by it. My main issue is the size of the catalogue (more library rather than app dependent) and the categorisation of books. You might as well not bother trying to search by category. I searched by horror and had a load of kids' books with witches and wizards. I also concur with the comment that the navigation bar for ebooks isn't for a chapter but for the whole book.

2 ★ Why mess with what was a good app. The last two updates have had ridiculous changes regarding adding and deleting of bookmarks; now you cannot even have a list of bookmarks showing - .you can have more than one bookmark but you have to scroll through all the pages to find them. Crazy! Perhaps the changes are being made to justify someone's existence..

5 ★ This really has been a godsend for me. I use it to listen to audio books when I am out walking the dog and it makes such a difference, especially when the weather is rubbish and you need a distraction. Brilliant app, easy to use with a large selection of books, and you can download a few at a time if you want a bit of variety. I strongly recommend it. I download the books so not using my data when out and about.

2 ★ My most used app, but. For several years! It lets me select audiobooks that I've already had, then tells me of 'listening progress' which is often the final track. Its suggestions seem to be their latest acquisitions or productions and bear no relationship to the material I've previously selected. I'd most like to have suggested the next book by a previously listened to author, then I'd like suggestions for authors of books liked by others with a similar history to mine. NO MORE ROOM for comment

4 ★ This app has a beautiful interface and is very pleasant to use. It would be The Perfect Library App if not for the fact that you can't use two library accounts in parallel. To log into a second account you have to reset the app, which means that all of your downloaded books are deleted. Please change that.

5 ★ This app is so good. Tons of ebooks & audiobooks to borrow. I'm loving the audiobooks especially at the moment, I always turn my data off at night and play an audiobook to help me sleep or on long journeys. The layout of the app is easy to navigate too and never have a problem with it.

5 ★ We love reading from the library, and borrowbox is a great invention. The app could do with some tweeks though. It's often difficult to get into. You need to switch wi-fi on and off first. Even uninstall the app and start again. Also Many many books are not available.😟

1 ★ I commented that bolinda did not show chapter information. I was asked to contact bolinda(see below), who after a few emails back and forth have advised this is correct, bolinda do not include chapter information. It would be very helpful not to have to email bolinda and request chapter title lists. This is my least favourite app due to this fact and the fact that they wasted my time.
