I like this program a lot, but I would like it better if there were listing pages for a series instead of individual books. So, if I search for "The Expanse," then the results have a page for that series instead of only listing each book separately. It would also be cool to have book listings all unify around a single page-- like how Goodreads has only one page for each book listing but shows whatever edition's cover art you search up.
Reviews for Bookshelf-Your virtual library
This app has everything I want, with a beautiful, intuitive interface. If you are a visual person, you will especially love how books are listed with customizable covers in a rapidly-loading scroll with no lag. The filtering and sorting features are great, and recommendations are organized into categories with subcategories. I was able to import all my books in under two minutes. There's no limit to how many books you can add, and they're super easy to scan in, using the app. Highly recommend.
Great app with free features that don't have a short term limited trial, so you can get a real feel for it. Wish it also had a web based verson, even if just for pro so for those who want to log in their audio and ebook collection also, we don't have to type it on the phone. Scanner works great. Wish it offered ways to could duplicate version, like if we have ebook and audio versions of a print copy, with out making a not for it.
I almost cried. It is that easy to scan/bulk scan. I spent hours adding to Librarika for it to lock me out. I then tried Library Thing- not bad... But this is SO easy. I just clicked each book I had entered on Library Thing and it found the ISBN within seconds. it *maybe* took 10 minutes to add all 70+ books. Press and hold a book to add a tag- the tag doesn't exist? create and save. it is flawless integration! Can't wait to start lending ❤️
I'm obsessed with this app. I can do everything I want & more: I can track what I'm reading, track the pages & dates of what I'm reading, create tags & bookshelves, read book summaries & reviews, & even catalog my entire library. I moved from GoodReads to this app & I couldn't be happier. It's beautiful, works well & is easy to use. It also has a community. There's a paid version with more perks, but I'm completely satisfied & content with the free version.
Amazing app, works SO well! The barcode scanner actually works even for my obscure books or different language books and it picks things up sooo fast. The app is intuitive and has a clean UI. I love the layout and ability to add different shelves/categories, tags, and wishlist items. It is perfect, so happy with it! Best I've found so far! Fun way to see your books and what types you have!
I love this app and have used it for about a year and a half. It makes it easy for me to organize all my books and I do recommend it to all my friends. However, I've slowly seen ads be implemented which was fine when it was sprinkled throughout. Now every time I save anything in a book I'm getting 10-20 second video ads. I understand ads are required to keep the app as good as it is but the ads are becoming overwhelming. I feel like I can't do anything in the app without receiving an ad anymore
Easy to use and not all junked up with extra features. I love adding books to the shelves, and it's been a lifesaver to check if I already have a copy of something while I'm browsing used bookstores for example. I like that shelves can be shared with a link so others can see what you have in your library. 100% worth it!
I absolutely love this app. It helps so much with keeping track of both the books I've collected and books I've already read and passed on. I use the search feature to see if I already have something and both the scan features have made my collection really easy to keep up-to-date. I also like that there are several choices in how you can sort and arrange titles. Update: I have been using this for years now and recommend it to every reader I meet. I can't express how much I appreciate it.
This is a really great app for categorizing your books personally, without a social component. However, lately, there have been annoying and intrusive ads that pop up in the most inconvenient ways. It used to be just a static image that would show between adding books to your shelves and you could just "x" out of it. But now videos play and they always have an "x" embedded in the ad meant to trick you. I don't want to have to start over but if these ads continue I may have to look elsewhere.
