Mike | 5 comments Is any one else having an issue comparing book lists with others? When I specify read it says none in common even though there clearly are.

Nick (whyzen) | 1295 comments I'm not familiar with the book list comparison enough to know for sure but I wonder if it is comparing the editions of the books too. Could be you read the ebook version while they listened to the audio version. Someone else could speak with more authority on this feature though but this could be a possible reason.

Noomninam Anyone else seeing partial malfunction in the Goodreads app? My Now Reading, Read, and Want To Read are all zeroed out, though elsewhere the total is still visible.

David H. (bochordonline) I recommend searching and/or posting your site/app problems in the Goodreads Feedback Group--that's where all the bug reports and updates go.

Louie (rmutt1914) | 885 comments They are aware of the issue-

Some of our members have reported that some or all of their shelves are showing zero books. This is a temporary issue, and none of your data has been lost.

Trike | 11197 comments Yeah, it’s been going on for a while now. I’ve been seeing that message for at least 2 months. It hit me for the first time this week, which doesn’t instill much confidence that they’re fixing things.

Louie (rmutt1914) | 885 comments First time I saw it, just a few hours ago.


message 8: by Silvana (new)

Silvana (silvaubrey) | 1803 comments The only good thing about it is that my TBR is 1.
It feels like my burden has been lifted.

Imbunche | 12 comments My tbr is at -1 right now, which makes me feel weirdly acomplished. I'm having problems since yesterday - all my shelves are empty except one. It's really starting to annoy me.

Stephen Richter (stephenofskytrain) | 1638 comments Mine has come back to haunt me.

Mine too. What a blissful few days.


message 12: by Michele (new)

Michele | 1154 comments It says 0, but if you open a folder everything is still there. Apparently some weird glitch they're working on.


message 13: by terpkristin (new)

terpkristin | 4407 comments I'm having some super fun (as in, puts fun in dysfunctional) on GR lately on my phone web browser. It seems to be forcing the mobile version lately instead of letting me use the far superior full version. I can no longer seem to find the setting to undo this. I seem to remember some previous discussion that this was coming and people would be unhappy but my search fu on goodreads isn't what it is elsewhere. Is this just a new "feature" that will make me use Goodreads less? Or am I just not finding the setting in my semi-exhausted regular state?

On my iPad, on Goodreads there is an option at the very bottom of every page to change to Mobile version or desktop version. Depending on which one you are on at the time.

terpkristin | 4407 comments Aha! I see that (now). Thanks. PEBCAK
