BookBuddy Reviews

Excellent

Pink Skye Mum on

United Kingdom

I’m really enjoying the book buddy app to keep a note of my many books. The one thing I can’t see which would be very very useful to have would to be able to record whether the book is a hardback, paperback or Kindle version so when I’m searching for the book to read again or loan to a friend I have an idea of where to look for it. Otherwise it’s great!

Love it!

Turtleybookishbex on

United Kingdom

Perfect for keeping track of books I’ve got.

Great app

mtdancer1977 on

United Kingdom

I have entered over 7000 ebooks with few issues. This issues (mainly user error) we’re dealt with quickly and efficiently by support I spent weeks trying to decide which app. To purchase and I definitely made the correct decision

Had It Two Minutes, Looks Good So Far But Won’t Stop Hassling For A Review

norfolknewbie on

United Kingdom

This is probably automated by Apple but it’s annoying. How can one do a serious review after five minutes use?

Amazing

will.pocknell on

United Kingdom

Amazing app useful and helps catalog books really easily I do recommend though there is one bug, when you scan multiple books it can sometimes show a blank page and I don’t know why this is happening

Great little app

NorthgateTommy on

United Kingdom

I tried several similar apps before choosing BookBuddy and have not been disappointed in three years of use. Just the job for keeping track of books, books you might want and books you’ve lent to friends. Highly recommended.

Great app

beegoodtome on

United Kingdom

I can never remember titles of books

So easy to use it’s a dream

Converted and impressed on

United Kingdom

I’m currently scanning a huge personal library of books.it’s so large I’ve forgotten which books I have, some are duplicates! I’m doing this one-handed and it’s easy. I’ve searched for books in the scanned items and I can find them easily and quickly. Great app!!!

Excellent, well worth the money

TheBigManlyGuy on

United Kingdom

I’ve been using BookBuddy for a couple of years now, and it’s really good at what it does. I use it to catalogue which shelf each book is on, because I have so many. It’s also useful when I’m in a bookshop, to see if I already own a book. A great app, definitely worth getting.

Brilliant App

DorisAppeal on

United Kingdom

Indispensable, easy to use by scanning book barcodes for indexing and with it I know where every one of my books is located, plus it’s saved me a lot of money because I’m not buying duplicate books because I know what I have on my phone with me.
