1 ★ Do not update! I've been using this app for years and have never had an issue. I decided to update it and now it cam barely find any book, and not weird, obscure books either, but classics like Kafka. Totally useless now.
4 ★ Like this app very much Not to say, I loved it until the send to goodreads feature stopped working. (it just stops in the middle, retries forever and stops for good)
1 ★ I just downloaded the app, and when attempting to scan books via the ISBN, it defaults to nonscanning apps. I'll have to uninstall. This is not helpful.
5 ★ I've had this app for years. It's a great way to keep track of your books. I use it to keep track of autographs & first editions. For those having trouble loading books... Go to admin functions, click on Library Thing, and follow instructions to register Library Thing on app. This is free & will fix the download problem.
5 ★ Absolutely love this app it works with the scanner on your phone and put everything into the author and then vice series it's just wonderful for a book warm so I'm not buying duplicate of any books anymore
1 ★ Catalog feature was decent and I enjoyed having all my books a fingertip away...until the app deleted my entire library. All of the hours I spent organizing wasted. Download and use at your own risk. Edit: I'm not sure how to message you to offer more info. I don't see any contact information. Happy to give you more info, but uninstalled awhile ago because the app deleted my entire library catalog.
4 ★ The best home catalog creation app I have found after exploring many. However. After recent android update the app isbn scanner is not working hand gives me a "knox enrollment service" error for the camera
4 ★ Love it for my growing library but needs fixed. The scanning feature for the ISBN number has stopped working (screen has no scanner box at all any more). I like how the app puts everything in Author order then series order so I can keep track of what books I have and which series I have yet to complete. I already reccomend the app to all my friends.
1 ★ I like the look of the App, and I'd love to give it a try BUT... tells me it can't connect to my camera even after downloading 2 of the recommended readers andrestarting ... won't be tryingthe other seemingly 'compromised' reader ... fairly basic function I'd say and it's not as if I have a whacky wayout phone... just a recent mainstream Samsung VERY disappointed as renders the App virtually useless... unless you only have 5 books that is 😔
4 ★ This is my favorite library app, the only thing I want is to be able to sign in so it saves everything I do. The save option that it has doesn't really work if you get a new phone. Since the new update, everything is broken. Cover art doesn't show up, can't find books, etc.
3 ★ Good app functionality-wise, but quite bad for the eyes due to very high contrast of white font on the very dark background.
5 ★ I love this app. Been using it for about a year and it's exactly what I need - a simple way to organise and record my reading. I also appreciate how easy it is to regularly export my data, so I don't have to worry about losing it if the app stops working in future.
1 ★ Failed at first hurdle. Said that the camera failed to start. However, it has no permissions for the camera so I'm not surprised- it never asked for them and I couldnt figure out to give them it. Looks like others had this issue on galaxy 10 as well. No support then ??
3 ★ It'd be a great app if you could view the search results instead of having to type it again from scratch hoping that the new details turn something up
4 ★ Sadly I have uninstalled this app as my phone broke, and installing it on my new phone did not allow me install the data too, A bit useless when all data needsto be re- entered. loved everything else. It just needs to have a optional cloud backup.
