BookBuddy Reviews

Love it!

TON BLAST on

Sweden

Love this app! It rely helps keep track of all the books and so I have read! Like it’s still a bit messy but it’s so much easier now then before, seriously

My favourite book managing app

Gulzt on

Sweden

No distractions, and full flexibility on how to manage, organise, and detail your collection. I love this app. My favourite feature: see how many books I’ve finished in each year. Unlike some other apps that allow for a booklist, the point is not to sell/promote new books to you; but really just focuses on managing your own bookshelves. It’s quick and easy to add new books to your wish list, and to scan barcodes for new purchases. I can’t think of a single feature it’s lacking. Simple perfection 🥳

Ok…ish

Fjesen on

Sweden

Adding the books is like playing Russian roulette. Scan 10 books and it will find 4 of them and if it is a series of 5 books it will find book 2 and 4 or maybe 1, 2 and 5. Not good enough!!

Kunde inte scanna böcker

LinusGenuine on

Sweden

Provade scanna fem av mina böcker, men inga hittades. Känns som en "måste" funktion.

The best book organizing and inventory app out there

Farfignuten on

United States

Can’t recommend this app highly enough if you have a lot of books! So helpful to scan their bar codes and inventory them, and you can track which ones you’ve loaned out, etc. Download it!

Great for manga collectors! And cheaper than most!

bt21-jungkook.army on

United States

I love this app and how much cheaper it is compared to other book collection apps, one time payment of $5 for unlimited amounts of books u can scan in, ive seen apps cost $30 or monthly payments, so this was the best deal! U can easily sort the books you own and everything! I collect manga’s and they all scanned!!! Which is a huge plus cause some apps cap at vol. 5 for a series, but here u can add the whole series! Down side would be i wish i could calculate the total cost of my collection, like have an estimate value of all the books i own.

a snap and extensible …

stab exlibris on

United States

pretty great and we rebuilt our school catalogue with it …

Sort by author sorts by first name

EvieG7 on

United States

This app is pretty good, but it is a WILD choice to make “Sort by Author” use the author’s first name instead of the last name.

Great app

Planet Gman on

United States

As a spreadsheet, list-writing individual, I love this app. I really like how I can search by title, author, series, or a whole host of other ways. The 3 things I have on my wishlist for this app are that 1. I wish I could import my kindle library directly into it instead of having to type each book in manually and fill in all the details and 2. I wish I could print the list out, at least title and author, or export to excel so that instead of going through each book I could use a search to determine if I remembered to add a book. Right now, I have over 7000+ books on my kindle and I buy more. I don’t always remember to add them. 3. I wish there was a way to move between my books without always having to start at the beginning. It would be nice if there were a back button so that I could return to where I had been if I need to leave it to double check something else.

Almost perfect!!!

Tasuku Tsukimori on

United States

Would have been a solid five stars if the books in a series would display in numerical order. For some reason, volume 10 in a series goes under volume 1, and so on until volume 20 goes under volume 2. If that gets fixed, then I will amend my review. But other than that, I LOVE this app. I’ve been looking for a way to track my book/manga collection without having to use a spreadsheet and this pretty much knocked it out of the park. 🥰
