About this app

The LibraryThing app allows LibraryThing members to catalog and browse their collections. LibraryThing is focused on books, but you can add most media, including books, DVDs and CDs. LibraryThing relies on data from Amazon, and over 65 million library records.

Add books by searching for them or scanning their ISBN barcode with the camera.

Add high-resolution cover photos of your books with the cover editor and browse your books by cover type to find copies that need better covers.

Ratings and reviews

I agree with the others who have talked about the app crashing. It scans decently well, and I added lots of books in a short time. But it just spins if I try to look at the books in my catalog, or if I try to search them. Which is it problem because I want to use this so I don't keep accidentally buying duplicates. But if I can't view the catalog of books I have, that makes it kind of worthless. Hoping this is a short term issue and will be fixed.

This app sorely needs to be updated. It's nice to have a LibraryThing app but this one hardly works. Crashes, inability to connect to the server, unable to create or edit tags, features lacking from the website, and overall poor design. I'd love to love this app but it's just not happening. At least, for the most part, it works.

Just doesn't work. Crashes frequently, entries in collections seem to duplicate endlessly, adding books to collections doesn't even work at times, and it's frankly annoying and sometimes confusing to navigate. It'd be amazing if it worked as it seems it's meant to, but it's hard to imagine it getting even close to there.
