I love the selection of audiobooks they have on Hoopla and the fact that unlike Overdrive, the books are always available. No waitlists.
But the android bluetooth issue is a tough one to get around. I generally just listen while driving, so I cast from the phone to a little motorola speaker I have on my visor (I have an old car with just a radio and a cd player).
And the audio from this app is just no good. It sounds a little off and it stutters. I'm not picky and it isn't quite "unlistenable" but dang Hoopla would be such a great service if it worked properly.
I do not have any trouble with other apps. Scribd, Overdrive, Audible, music apps, etc all work fine. But Hoopla gives me problems. Good to know I am not alone, though it does not sound realistic to expect things to get better with a quick update given all the other gripes on the thread.
