Palace is a free, easy-to-use e-reader app that lets you find, check out, and read or listen to books from your local library. It’s been said that libraries are “palaces for the people” and the Palace app gives you instant access to your local “palace” any time, right from the palm of your hand. All you need to sign up is your library card! And even if your library isn’t using Palace yet, you can still read more than 10,000 books--from children’s books to classics to foreign language books--for free from our Palace Bookshelf. The Palace app is built and maintained by Lyrasis, a not-for-profit organization working in partnership with Digital Public Library of America with funding from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. For more, visit https://thepalaceproject.org.}

Audiobook rewinding/forwarding often causes the chapter to start from the beginning. Sometimes progress in the chapter is lost between app uses. Pretty much unusable for audiobooks
Just some guy you know?

Search has no options for refining your search, like filtering for only audiobooks or searching author name.

Can’t send titles to kindle. Some titles are full justified and cannot be adjusted. I regret asking my library to buy a book through the California library. Wish they went back to Libby/overdrive for ebooks.

Really like it when it works, but periodically glitches and forces me to delete app and reinstall. Annoying when I can no longer get the audio book I was listening to.

I have been loving this app for a few months. But in the past few weeks, it locks up a lot, freezing on a blank screen. Then I have to delete it and start again. Frustrating when I’ve only got a short amount of time to soak up my audiobook!

When listening, I’m assuming because I’m listening at 1.5x speed, it often silences at the end of a chapter and never moves on to the next chapter. It also does not hold place well and bookmarks are very inconsistent in function. I also wish it would show me a percentage finished when listening to an audio book.

The app is okay. I wish it properly aligned with the chapters. For instance the label may read chapter 7 but in the book you’re really on chapter 4. I also wish it would allow you to have more options for reading speed. I wish I could have speeds between 1.5 and 2.0 and faster than 2.0.

I love the concept of this app and have taken out several books but now the app isn’t loading at all. Just blank pages and no buttons work. It also loses track of where you last stopped reading. I guess I will have to uninstall and reinstall to hopefully get my catalog back. I had to do this a month ago and it is a bit of a pain as you have to relink to your library and risk losing your place in line on your reservation list.

The app logged you out for no reason. It starts books over from the beginning for no reason. Today, it doesn’t open. Tech-support is very in accessible. Not a good option.
