No pics. I'm laying in my bed reading the tagged book, enjoying its short snippets of humor. Ex. "The curate was as pale and thin as a communion wafer."

I read this because it was listed as humerous which I don't think it really was. But it was a fun read.

I just got a new android phone and my Litsy app was the only thing that didn't transfer over. I googled for a reason and read some posts from 2 yrs ago that the app was no longer available. Then I read from one year ago that there was a work-around which also did not
work for me. Is anyone else familiar with this issue? For now I am posting from the website.

Ruthiella I lost the link to the fix. But @julesG knows the work-around. 2mo
Birdsong28 https://litsy.en.uptodown.com/android here is the link I recently used as I have recently changed phones 2mo
julesG @Birdsong28 That's one of the links, yes. 2mo
See All 10 Comments
julesG Download the APK file and open it. Here's the link: https://litsy.en.uptodown.com/android Open the APK file. Your phone might say it's from an unreliable source, but you can tell your phone it isn't. This should install the Litsy App on Android. 2mo
IriDas Yikes. Hope these recs work for you 1mo
Tamra @julesG you are always the lifesaver! 🦸‍♀️ 😇 (edited) 1mo
Blueberry Thank you @JulesG @IriDas @Ruthiella @Birdsong28 @Tamra. It took 2 tries and asking @NataliePatalie which download button to tap but I got it!!! I wonder why LibraryThing doesn't want to update it.? 1mo
Birdsong28 @Blueberry It's probably more of a Google thing as I know that you can't buy kindle books from the kindle app or Amazon app on your phone as I know that Google charges for the privilege so you have to go through the website so it's probably something along those lines in that LibraryThing might have been charged to keep Litsy on the app store or any another updates 📚📖 1mo
julesG @Birdsong28 I heard it's because Amazon has shares in LibraryThing. You can get the app from Amazon's app store, but not Google. 1mo
julesG No idea why there hasn't been an update of the app since 2017. 1mo
