CountyCat Mobile Catalog for Android
As others have commented I hate that I can't search by subject or key words if I remember only part of a title. I hate that I can't use the regular search catalog and am redirected to this useless app.
Doesn't work like the library system's.
Could not sign in
Great to have the card catalogue in my pocket
I can't get on the county cat website anymore because every time I go there, it redirects me here. It's creepy, it's like it's forcing me to use this app that's so much more limited than the website. For others with this problem-- I haven't been able to completely bypass it, but if I click the second "mpl county cat" search result, which says mpl login, I can get into a slightly different version of the site. But whenever I tap home, I end up back here. Does anyone have a better solution?
You can refine the search as well as you can online
Now i can renew my library books at my fingertips . Fantastic
The app allows you to bypass the librarians or trip to libraries and do it yourself. Requesting DVDs or books and which library to pick them up from is one task utilized. Renewing is another plus. The search feature is pretty good. More may be possible but this is 5 stars to me.
You don't have to leave the comfort of your home.
This app is terrible.
The mobile app is harder t use than the website version. It also bugs me that the mobile app availability reminder keeps showing up. I am not interested!!
Its convenient to use to check out books I already know tbat I want, but if I want to search for a historical fiction or whatever its very inconvenient. When I try to use the desktop version it automatically redirects me to the app which is annoying too.
I would prefer to choose the desktop version but I was.automatically redirected over and over to an app I don't want.
It is so easy to check out books wherever i am and find when my books are due
I only wish there was an advanced search capability.
Sweet! I wish I could search individual locations though. And I can't get the scanner to work. But very convenient.
Very easy to use!
Just having the library with me all the time.
I can do everything. At. Home than pick up what's ready ..just great!
So great and helpful
Now i can renew my library books at my fingertips . Fantastic
Simply love it!
CountyCat works every time
I use this app daily. Fast as you type searches (still amazes me / I don't know how it indexes all that) . Plus checking your own library card for due dates, holds, etc. Just awesome. Wish I could manage my saved book lists and search single library locations' catalogs instead of the entire network but no biggie.
This app is great! Well done Milwaukee County Library System. It's fast, it's efficient. I've done searches, reserved things and even paid a fine with this app. If I could go higher than five stars, I would. (now.... if the county can do something this well, why does the federal government have so much trouble keeping its sites running? lol.)
I've tried a few different library apps, in addition to the mobile site. The experience is terrible. Finally, an app that gets it right! Flows smoothly, great layout and functional collection search. Good job!
Very easy to use and very fast. Only one thing missing. I can't edit, view or add to my music list like in the main site. I can request which fine but it would nice to be able to add to my request list.
Fast as you type searches (still amazes me / I don't know how it indexes all that) . As example shows, MA TWA will find Mark Twain. Plus checking your own library card for due dates, holds, etc. Just awesome. Wish I could manage my saved book lists and search single library locations' catalogs instead of the entire network but no biggie.
This is a very useful app. Very easy to find what you're looking for at the library.
It is so easy for me to check my account. Lets me do everything the site does.
I can do everything. At. Home than pick up what's ready ..just great!
My favorite app
Sign-in but no sign-up. How do i get an account? It wouldn't accept my card number.
App works great for me
This is a great time saving tool!
Trying to access auto repair data base absolutely sucks. This being the only way to access it mobile is really really BAD! PLEASE FIX IT....
A nice clean app.
Every time I try to go to my account the page goes black and stays there. Fix this then I will download again.
I just had used my browser to check my library info and stuff but this is way easier
by Q####:
Can't search by genre, general subject, etc... Easier to use full sight unless you know exactly what you want. Wants to automatically redirect me to this useless app even if I try to get to the much more useful desktop version.
