Ratings and reviews

I love that I can inventory all my books in one location and sync them to the cloud! Easy to use and add all my books quickly, especially if they have an ISBN. Some of my really old books take longer to add since they don't have an ISBN to type in but it still doesn't take long to add them to the book database. Hopefully, when I am adding them it may help other people to find those books in the future. Of course the ones I'm adding are really really old and probably aren't many of them left.

It's not perfect, but it's as close as it gets for what this app does. There is really no good alternative, and it is very robust and moderately user friendly. My one big critisism is I wish it was easier to scan books out of my inventory in a timely fashion or if that feature exists I wish I could find it.

It's a very basic app and does what you need it to in terms of scanning and organizing large amounts fast. I'm taking away 2 stars because of somehow unknowingly being on a trial, when I had already set it for the monthly subscription. Guess who had a surprise charge for the yearly subscription? Not impressed. Doubting im even going to use this app for a year and now I've paid more than it's worth.. so double check when you start using this app
