Ratings and reviews

I installed this app as a last minute hope since most of these apps suck but I am pleasantly surprised. So far, I have over 300 items and I haven't hit a pay wall. It has music, movies, books, and bored games(in beta rn). Only downside is that you need to have a plan for collections, it doesn't seem to have an edit or delete button once the collection itself is made, it's permanent (at least with the app, I haven't tried the web version). But overall, it is very useful and easy to manage.

I got this app for two reasons: ability to catalog books via barcode scanner and exporting the catalog. So far, I have a scanned catalog of about 200-250 titles and 1/3 of those got the 'item not found' error making the app unusable for me. Manual entry is tedious and not very user friendly. I will give it another 500 titles or so before I give up on the app but if you have a library of older editions you might just be out of luck with this one.

I love this app! I really enjoy being able to categorize all of my books. The scanning is quick and easy. The only change I would ask for is this: when you sort by author/creator, I'd like it to be alphabetical instead of just grouping the author's books together in a random order. I do also like that there is a dark mode/light mode option :)
