Scanner Barcode scanner doesn't work with my tab. It seems to have difficulty focusing. My other barcode scanner read it easily

Brilliant Great app. I just scanned in an 800 book collection in under a day. Found a small bug with csv export having duplicated items but found workaround is to sort by title before exporting.

Great app! Love this app, the only thing that could make it better would to be able to sync between devices!

Love it. Can I request for other buttons though? Can we have READING and WISH buttons? Otherwise, it is perfect. Thanks.

Outstanding Easiest way yet to manage my library. Would be great if it allowed filtering by attribute (author, publisher, etc.) The ISBN barcode scanning will shave days off my project of listing my 1000's of books.

Great App! Very useful app. I use it for my school library registry. And I emailed the publisher, I hope he recognizes, I can translate this app into Turkish for no charge at all :)

All text no zing No real graphics displayed. Stripped down interface w/star ratings in my way.
