Accessibility Comments
When you open the app, and after you log in with your Learning Ally credentials, you will be taken to the home screen. Here, you'll find all your books in the book shelf, if you have added any to it. The books are displayed in a column with two rows. You may change the view if you wish at the top, where you will find a menu button which will give you the option to log out, add more books to your book shelf and much more. At the very bottom of your list of books on the right is also an Add Books, which will also take you to Learning Ally's website where you can add more books to your bookshelf. This is the first release of the new app from Learning Ally. Support for the Older Learning
Ally will be discontinued after December of this year.
