Great app

This app makes it easy to comb through books and grab the reference for them fast. A must have for any college student. The only problem I have with it is that the camera feature for scanning the bar code doesn't always work. Other than that though, I absolute recommend this app.
Time saver!!!!

Very very helpful app. I never write reviews but this one is special because I find this useful. But it needs some work because there are inconvenient parts, which is why I gave two stars. Some journals specify terms for the publication date published (ie. Spring 2014). So I hope the developers would make it possible to manually enter words under 'date published' entry rather than only having 'DD/MM/YYYY'. Also, I wish there were separate entries for 'volume' and 'number' so I don't have to style it myself. For example, I have to put '45, no. 1' under 'Volume and Number' entry. It would be more convenient if volume and number had its own entry so I can just put '45' and '1' and get '45, no. 1' I believe this kind of apps thrives or dies based on how user friendly it is and convenient it is. The barcode scanning is superb. The ISBN input finds the book very very quickly. However, none book entries--in my case journal articles only so far--needs more attention, especially since graduate work requires reading a lot of journal articles.
Glitches

This app freezes constantly while typing out the information. Definitely needs some bug fixes! Would be super handy if it worked right!
User friendly, surprisingly satisfying.

This has saved me so many times for research papers! It has many options for the type of research papers. My university likes them a certain way so it's just a matter of adjusting the references every so often. It's helped in groups because we could share. It kept everything organised and you can export it a number of ways! My most used app when writing a research paper!
