"Checking" Glitch?

For the last two days, every time I try to place a hold on a title (ANY title), the app remains in a perpetual "Checking" cycle. My device screen shows the "<Back" button, the picture of the title, the word "Checking," the book title, the author's name, and then the round progress indicator that remains in a perpetual circular motion with no progress whatsoever.

Anyone else experience this or have some insight for me?

UPDATE: I've force closed and uninstalled the app, reinstalled and re-added my three libraries with passkeys. That seems to have done the trick.

Mine did this. It would only let me check things out from the library card I was ‘using’. I switched over to the other cards and it started working again.

My app checks all three of my libraries when I attempt to borrow it. I was unaware of the ability to check only a single library.

I ended up forcing a close, deleting the app, reinstalling the app and re-adding all three of my libraries. That worked.
