Reviews
Lots of questions but I like so far
MommyWithLittles
Where do we see the published library? I don't see any web address or link to site. I checked out the website associated with the app developer but the contact info is for those wanting to WRITE apps for them. I didn't see info or contact for this app. I would buy full version and rate 5 stars when I get this figured out (and they fix the crashes). I do NOT want to list 500 books and have the info be lost and/or non exportable.
Problems on Touch 4
Joekcmo
I have Red Laser and it works quickly and well. This program takes at least a minute to focus in on the barcode. In that time you could have typed in the barcode. It may work better on the iPhone 4 which has a better camera. After it found the barcode it identified the album quickly. I give it 3 stars since it may work better for you, but it's useless on the touch.
Great

I recently downloaded this app and it has worked flawlessly for me. I currently only use it for books. Serves its purpose great! Can't wait to use it for my movie collection.
Great app, finally :)

Love it. I wish it had a more modern look with nicer colors. I bought the full version. It worth the 1$! Actually even more if you improve it and make it a little nicer looking :) Cheers
Simple interface, but features TOO simple...
Carol Clouse
After getting the lite version of this app, I thought I was going to really enjoy it's simple interface, until I started using it. There are many other book database apps out there that I have tried/trying, so competition is high making it easy to compare this to others. Here is what it does NOT do: -Can't export (back up files) to anything else but it's own server, which requires an account. -Sorting is VERY limited- only by author and book title. -No Goodreads reviews -No downloadable cover art or book synopsis -No library availability -No batch ISBN barcode scanning, plus current scan results are not very accurate. -Can't add new collections -Instructions/help are vague and incomplete. If you have a large home library/collection, you may want to steer clear of this app as it takes too long to enter multiple books, searches and sorting are very limited, and there is almost no customization of functionality...
Ability to add Cover images manually
JLopie
Just downloaded the lite version. Wish I can add my own cover images from a photo of the cover when adding stuff manually (when the barcode scanner can't find am item... or magazine or foreign books)
Enter everything manually

Not a single thing I tried to enter was found. This app is not worth the trial, sure not going to purchase the full version.
Nice organizer, have ideas for more

I like what I see so far, though the bar code scanner is under performing. Keyword search is working well. What the App does, it does very well, however, I would love to see a couple of additional fields for what I need it to do, as a home schooler. Two customizable fields-- one for subject area (math, history, etc) and one for person assigned (ideally, more than one person could be assigned to each book, with the date read). Those two fields are essential. Add in a field for storage location (less important) and you will have home schoolers flocking to this app, and 4-5 stars, even with a flaky scanner.
Not worth the time to even try it

This app seems like it would be awesome. It seems relatively user-friendly, the background and buttons are good. However, I cannot add a single media onto the app, making it useless.
The new update has serious issues!
Libereco
I generally find the app practical and considered purchasing it. However, the new update has 2 big issues: 1. When finding a cover for an item, ALL items in the library get the cover!!!! 2. The scanning no longer works. Everything needs to be entered manually. Thank you for looking into this. Best of luck.
