Freezes. Also error message when chapter ends. Work around please?

It frequently freezes up. And will replay the same chapter instead of going on to the next. The Libby app is so incredibly much better but when you check out from your library you have to use the app that the library is using...which is a terrible situation...especially when students need the book for a school assignment. I can't stand it. It's so irritating. I can never get through a single chapter without a glitch of some kind. I do not have this problem with Libby or Hoopla or Overdrive
