I can put books on my wishlist but when I push the download it just goes to a white screen. I can still read the books on my bookshelf but I can not download any more books. I have tried unstalling and reinstalling the Baird app, but that does not help.

The app updated - and now I can't access my siwhlist, previous downloads, etc - in fact, I can't get to any of the normal methods I had for downloading more books on my phone. I would reset the app, but I'm afraid all that will do is destroy the library I have on my phone.

Hi. My bard app keeps crashing and making me resign in. I go and turn back on the setting Initialization and resigning in but it keeps doing it. It used to do it everyother month or so but now it's doing it every day between 1 and 4 times. Is there a way to fix this problem? Thank you

Hi I recently did a search on Bard and now I'm stuck in that search. I've tried refreshing the page I've tried to go back and then repress the button to search Bard but when I press the button to search Bard all it does is send me back to my last search it will not let me enter anything new. I've tried restarting my phone I've tried restarting the app I'm not sure what's going on what do I do? If you if you don't clearly understand my question please feel free to call me to help remedy my problem 502-779-1774. Again when I pressed the search Bard button it takes me to an old search it won't even let me enter a new search.

So I’m using my old email, and my old password that I had for years to log into my app. I’m currently not using the email anymore, and this is the only app that I use it for. It used to let me login, but now it’s not letting me


Common dislikes about BARD app

- Annoying alert every time app is opened

- Must log in every time to use search feature

- Cannot save log in information

- Cannot use iPad to search for books and place on wish list

- Must download books to phone for listening
