I clear mine when the phone/iPod/iPad begins not performing well, like when links don’t seem to want to open, etc. I probably clear it more than Apple says is needed, but I also have older devices, iPhone 5s and iPod Touch 6th Generation.
I also sometimes clear the RAM by holding down the power button until it shows Power Off, then I release the power button and hold down the home button until VoiceOver says something. Since Chris was not able to follow links, I thought clearing the app switcher might help. But, that is just one person’s opinion.

Well, two questions. Apple is now saying app switcher should not be cleared unless the phone is frozen. Should I always clear the app switcher when I go to Bard? How often do you or anyone else believe the switcher should be cleared? Apple says as little as possible for battery life. I never closed it but only 1 or 2 times a week just as I turn my phone off. Anyway, curious what others do.

So, in the first two examples, I get all the results at once instead of having to select a next page, etc. But, the normal method is to double tap on the add to wish list link after the description of the book. I’ve used the series page for books before. I just took a look at the Jack Reacher Novels and once in that list, there is the add to wish list after each title description. That is what you want, then you can download them from your wish list. The other tip, and I’m sure you have already done this, but be sure the app switcher is empty as you are asking the device to handle a large amount of data at once.

I just set up my iPhone 8 last night, so the BARD app has just been downloaded to the phone. I did notice an update in the app store this morning, so I updated it in hopes it might take care of the problem, but the problem is still there. Here are a few examples that I have experienced over the past 24 hours. First Example: Went to the Get Books tab, Double tapped Browse BARD at the bottom. Use headings in the rotor to get to Previously Downloaded Books near the bottom. When I double tap the link the new page does not load. I just continue to sit on the main page. As I said, I even scrolled down and searched the screen for the actual link and double tapped it that way. Second example: After going to the Get Books tab and double tapping Browse BARD. I went to the Search box and typed The hard way, looking for a Jack Reacher Novel. There were tons of results. The book I was looking for was not on the first page of results, so I tried double tapping the next link to go to the next page of results, but nothing I did would take me to the next page. I tried double tapping the next link both at the top and bottom, and using the combo box to choose page 2 and double tap the go button, but nothing worked. Third example: I did another search from the main page and found a Jack Reacher book. This time when I double tapped the link for the book, it took me to the details page for that book. Now I swiped down to the name of the book series and double tapped trying to get the list of books in the series, but nothing happened. So I tried double tapping the back button to go back to the list of books, but I was stuck on the details page of that book. The only way I could do anything was to close the BARD app, take it out of the app switcher, then restart it from scratch. It looks to me like a voice over focus issue. For some reason, links will just not activate for me, and as you can imagine, that makes browsing BARD in the app very difficult to almost impossible to do. If you are not having these problems, then that is hope for me to just find out why I am. I did try doing some google searches to see if I had any problems in Safari, but everything worked fine in Safari. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Are you talking about the browse by last name, etc.? I think those may take a long time to activate, but simpsearching for a title or author, seems to work well for me. Give me an example of what you are doing and I'll give it a try.
