Pretty Good Start

Very easy to add your books. It would be nice to be able to make your own categories. I am using it to keep track of the children's books we purchase for my daughter's early childhood education classroom when she graduates. It would be nice to be able to export data to a spreadsheet or have loaned out category. She could keep track digitally when students take books home. But it's nice to have all titles with me when I go to yard sales.
Excellent!

Combined with the website, this is a perfect tool for cataloging books and other media.
Excellent Start

Love the ability to scan books into my LT account as well as easily being able to add covers. This is mainly what I use the app for. Editing is a little difficult and I would love to be able to change the source (amazon, British library, etc) I am searching from the app. So far I only seem to be able to do that from the website. But, this is one of my most heavily used apps. Such a great tool. Thanks and hope to see further development in future :)
Great for a library of any size

If most of your books have barcodes, this app will save hours of data entry. If they don't it is still useful as a reference.
Easy to use; no book limit

I've been an LT user for over a decade. This app is a quick convenient way to check my library when I'm away from my desk. Adding and searching the catalog is easy; what more could you want? There's no limit to number of books, despite what another reviewer claimed--I have 2,400 in LT and my parents have over 10,000.
Great way to catalog

Fast way to catalog all of your books. Many other great tools on the website. There is no book limit like another review states.
What a great app!

In 15 minutes I scanned in 70 books! I agree it would be great to create your own categories, but it is still a 5 star app! I can't believe how fast it is. Finally, I will have a catalogue.
Ok, so now what

I got my meager book collection entered hoping to more easily share them with my friends. I may as well be on a deserted island as compatible this is with the rest of the world. Now my books are listed. So I can see what I have(?!?) I already knew what I had. I may as well be on a deserted island.
Really like it!!

Love that I can keep track of all the books I own, especially because I don’t have the space to keep them all displayed!! The only thing I wish you could do was rename or add a category and also delete some if you don’t want them. Otherwise it’s great and so easy to use. Love all I have to do is scan the barcode and there it is, and also the light feature is great as well!! I just added 20 books in less than 5 minutes!!!!
App and website need a tag line to explain feature/benefit

The website and app kind of feel lackluster. Needs to tell you what it does, and I would include a sample library of someone else’s library (Library of Thomas Jefferson) and let folks browse other people’s public libraries.
