CLZ USERS ABOUT CLZ BOOKS:

"A fantastically nice book library app that I am incredibly happy with, you really get an overview of the things that need to be sorted out, for a good overview, easy to use and everything works seamlessly. Strongly recommend."
Emmanate (Norway)

"The best I have found. I have over 1200 books and have used a number of book cataloging apps over the years. CLZ Books does the job of keeping track of my library and gets syncing right. Most importantly (speaking as a software developer) they keep improving the app. It’s tough to make a business of niche software products. These folks have apparently figured out how to make a go of it and they keep improving. Kudos to them!"
LEK2 (USA)

"This is THE ONE. I have a lot of books, and I have been looking for a very long time for a great library cataloging app. A friend of mine showed me this one and… Yes. This is it. So easy to use, so easy to add books and create collections, add covers, anything you want to do. I love it I love it I love it.
Also Customer Service is absolutely terrific."
OolooKitty

"I first gave 5 stars to this in 2018. In 2024, it still delights. If I could give more I still would now. Such a useful book database app which is constantly being improved.
I have had occasion to contact them a couple of times and they have always been courteous, friendly and immediately helpful. I can thoroughly recommend."
Mark Maffey

Ratings and reviews

Excellent library cataloging app. I have zero complaints with it so far. The cloud backup feature is nice, and I also appreciate the ability to export the full library if I need to. Edit: one other thing to note: I actually appreciate that this app is supported by a very reasonable subscription fee. The last thing I want is an app that is free and never updated and eventually dies, or a bunch of ads. If you do eventually tire of paying a small fee, you can easily export your library.

I use this app for my genealogy books. It works great and I always have on-hand what I have purchase. It's hard with genealogy books since lots of outdated books are reprinted with different covers and I have been known, before the app, to purchase another copy of something I already had. And, it's even better with the values attached. I have a book that is worth way more than I paid for it a few years back!! I highly recommend this app.

Edit Still loving this app but wanted to add some more love. The dev team are constantly coming up with great features to add such as reading tracking. They really pay attention to their customers. Absolutely love this app. Allows me to keep track of my books, which ones I have read, how I rated them, which location in the house I can find it. The team have made some great improvements such as reading the ISBN number when there is no barcode. Well worth the yearly subscription.
