So so

Nice idea, but has so many flaws it is not worth the $3.00. I am giving it three stars because I actually like that app. I just hope that the creators fix all the flaws and work to make it a better app so that it will be worth $3.00. Needs a way to add genres! Needs to be more accurate with descriptions (most of them have nothing to do with film)! Needs a way to remove trailers and add new ones (most of them have nothing to do with my films)! Needs a way to select titles from a list when movies with similar or the same titles are entered! Needs a way to add to the title images. Ex. I own the Errol Flynn version of Rudyard Kipling's Kim. When I scanned the barcode a completely different movie with a similar title appeared. I changed the info. However, when attempted to change the photo from that of the other movie to an image of mine, the only images that appeared in the image finder were pictures of Kim Kardashian and family. I should be able to use the camera on photo to take a picture of my movie and add it to the database or find the picture I want on the Internet and add it. Also, for $2.99 you should be able view your movies by genre, actor, director, etc. I should be able have the option of selecting genre "comedy", for instance, and a list of all the movies I own within that genre appear in list. It should be the same actors and directors (this would mean adding a "cast and crew" section in the movie info). Also, there should be the option of rating the films by giving them a number of stars. The rating should then show up in the movie list in the same way the genre does. I hope the creators of this app actually read the revues. The app could really benefit from all the suggestions that I and others have made.
Good but not great

I really like this app. I have a ton of movies and love the fact that you can scan them into your phone, send an email backup and sync it with another device. All of these are great. The downside is that when you add more movies later on and then sync the devices again, you now have duplicates, triplicates, and so on for every movie in your device. I recently bought 3 movies. After i put them in my phone I synced my phone with my ipad. Now every movie is in my ipad twice except for the three new movies. Fix this and I'll give you 5 stars.
Used to love it

This used to be a solid app. I have been an iPhone user for 3+ yrs and loved this app however I log in today and all my movies are deleted ???
App has several bugs

App will just shut down on its own. Sometimes will not allow me to select covet art and at times it will not read the barcode without restarting the app.
Fails

Fails to launch 95% of the time. Used to be good but lately is not worth the effort. Update does not fix anything.
Update problems

I just found this app and love it but the 9/18 update messed everything up. I am unable to scan or type in anything since the update. I hope this problem can be fixed or the app will be useless. When working it's a 5 but not as is, more like a 1
Times out

Just bought this and nothing happens. I scan something and the UPC comes up but it just says its scanning then times out. What the hell?

It is a fine app for keeping records of all of your movies and games. I personally can not get the program to scan a BarCode and have to either input the BarCode in manually or the Title in manually. I think that if the scanner part worked it would save much time organizing my collection. Seeing the movie cove at a glance is nice, being able to edit the title, description, and other lines is nice too. I gave it the rating I did because the product does not do what was promised, so I just put it in the don't ever buy from the parent company again catagorie. EVER! Make it work and I might change my mind, if not... I started out where I was going to give a 3 star rating, but after typing for a couple of minutes I find that I can't stand paying for something that doesn't work. I give it a 1 star just because it doesn't work as advertised. ...Ron
