Ratings and reviews

I really WANT to like the app, but I have tried to scan the ISBN for my first 12 books, and it could not find 9 of them, had to search by name, and still could not find a few of them. Also, only found one image, had to take pictures of the rest. I have a few thousand books, and thought this would be useful to help catalog them all, but won't be useful if it can't find them when searching.

This is now a total "Bait and Switch" library. They get you to start a library for free and the a couple of years later want to charge for anything over 100 books, which is ridiculously minimal. They're gone! UPDATE: Handy Library claims they've always had the 100 book policy which simply is not true. I have over 700 books in mine now and was never charged for having over 100 until NOW when I tried to add another just the other day.

I'm very close to hitting my 100 book limit, but I love this app! Being able to track which books I have loaned out (plus helping me remember the ones I have long forgotten I have hiding on the shelf) is amazing! I took away one star because when I move books from my TBR shelf to labeled trope shelf, sometimes it's not listed in the drop-down.
