I tried a dozen or so numbers - Invalid barcode/library card number. It also logs your ip address. Is this technically fraud?

Looks great and never knew about this. I just tried a random 9 digit number and it worked... There's loads of stuff to read there. I don't get it tho, what's the catch?

Excellent it actually works :smiley:
Only issue I have with it, is that the app does not work on Amazon's Fire tablet :disappointed:

Can you do this on the PressReader app on iPhone and Android or can you only do this through the PressDisplay website?

If you want to read free magazines on an iPad I'd recommend checking if your local library suppors Zinio magazines as it works really well on the iPad

Bummer, oh well, you can still access the site on an iPad so that'll do, thanks for the tip off! Wish there was a list of what local libraries offered Zinio!

unfortunately, this doesn't work for me. After entering my card number it only gives me "Invalid barcode/library card number" :neutral_face:
