BookBuddy Pro: 書庫管理程式

very handy interface and great updateds!

I like the app, but will now only use on one device at a time after having severe problems with syncing with iCloud. There is an error nearly every time I try to sync, plus I have had new data overwritten with older data. It seemed to work at first, but problems began after a couple weeks of use.

First of all, I love this app because once you buy it, it just works without requiring a subscription to access basic functionality. It’s very easy to use, the design is intuitive, you can customize things extensively, and it’s easy to export your collection to PDF or CSV formats. The only complaint I can think of is the database it references when you can an ISBN isn’t always accurate. I occasionally need to correct some data like the publisher or genre. No big deal. And if it’s not in the database, it’s easy to add your own entries. Highly recommended.

This is by far the best library organizing app I have ever seen in my entire life. not only is it helping me to organize my book in an easy manner is also very fun to see the books being loaded into my library so easily. The best part about this app for me is to see the cover of all my books displayed in the library app. now I can select which book I want to read and make an organized reading list. Thank you so much for creating this app for booklovers.

BookBuddy is a perfect app for your mobile device. It is easy to use, offers a wide variety of ways to sort your Library, record your personal reviews, and best of all, it downloads a summary of every book from online. Thus, you can quickly read a summary of the last book you’ve read in a series before starting the latest release. It even includes a separate wish list where you can keep track of the books you want to read. The companion MovieBuddy app is equally effective at building a library of all the movies you own in whatever format they exist in (VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, Digital, etc).

Absolutely worth the money. I love having my home library at my fingertips.

I am loving it so far. I haven’t purchased any duplicates since getting all of my current books loaded. I would love an option to sync my Kindle, Apple Books, Audible, etc instead of needing a csv to import.

With so many book lovers, you would think there would be several great library inventory apps. Sadly there are very few. After using and loving the Music Buddy pro app I decided to give Book Buddy a chance. I am happy to say that Book Buddy does have all the key features I’m looking for in it’s handling of books in my library and the ability to share the sand dataset between my wife and I so either of us can make updates or scan more books into the app. It does a tremendous job on most recently printed books. This was a must for us. We both have ADHD so we’ve frequently buy the same book twice because we hadn’t added the book to our previous manual entry app. This app makes it easy to add at time of purchase and syncs right up on the spouses phone. We say buying dupes, is paying our ASHD tax. With book buddy we no longer have that stress in our lives. There are still improvements that can be made. A book unlike music or videos is likely to have had multiple printings by different companies in different formats with different covers. It’s nigh impossible to know identify every possible variant. Books also go back way past the invention of barcodes or even ISBN registration. No app has an automated solution for that but Book Buddy makes it easy for me to capture the data and add my own pictures of my cover when the database located version of a book was slightly different.

I highly recommend teachers get this app! I use this app to organize my read-a-loud books, not the ones the students touch. However, you can use the app to check books out to your students (or colleagues!) The app is SUPER easy. Yes, I paid for the upgraded version after testing out the free version. I love adding tags. It helps me recall what my intention was when I purchased the book. I also have created tags associated with my TPT purchases and the TPT seller’s name. This way, if I want read a specific book to the class, I know if it also goes with an SEL, social studies, reading comprehension, or art lesson.

I love this App but it needs an ereader/Kindle option
