Wax for iPhone

I had about 500 records on the Wax app on my iPhone. I installed it on my iPad and turned on iCloud sync, and my entire collection disappeared!!! How do I get it back? Bot sure this has been corrected before going back and trying this again. Luckily, I have since learned that my iPad still is the collection, so I have kept it offline so that it does not update.

Also the developer is very handsome.

So far it kinda works, it left a lot of titles off when I uploaded my collection from Discogs and seems to confuse artists such as howling wolf became howling wolf’s band. Doesn’t seem to be anyway to print out the collection so it looks like I’ll need to re list the whole collection rather then have a list to check entries off. Also no support seems to be available but I could of missed a link.

Easy interface

I have a large record collection and I want to organize them to track what I own. I read all the reviews and was excited......but soon discovered a disorganized convoluted system nearly impossible to navigate. I spent twenty minutes looking for US releases of Springsteen.........couldn’t find them. Same with Billy Joel, Zeppelin is a hodge podge. Feels like a site dedicated to people who like to show off their imports, not organize their collection so they don’t buy “Live at Leads” on accident again....might be useful to divide releases by country within artist, or maybe I just never found out how to do this. Anyway.....

If you are using discogs as your primary catalog, this app is no good. Each time you import, it brings in all albums again. So it doubles, triples, etc. the look and feel is great, but definitely need improvement.

Constantly spins busy while scanning bar codes the first few times. Have to close out of app and try two or three times. Can't find bar codes a lot of the time. No way to fast scroll through collection...should have a letter tab at top to quickly go there.

The app looks really good, love the interface and usability. My only gripe is the search function. There is no way, that I’ve found, to filter down the search. Try to sort through to find your pressing of a Beatles or Zeppelin album! Need some sort of function to be able to filter the results down! Otherwise great app. I love the Crates idea and the random album feature!

I had been looking for a way to keep track of my collection, by name and with pictures, but had previously come up blank. Wax does all of this, including filling in all of the info if you search for your disc; and you can search by album title, catalog number, and more. Seriously love this app ❤️

I’ve only been using the app for a few minutes but one thing I noticed after importing my collection from discogs is that Wax automatically applies the 7” tag to vinyl that’s listed under 45rpm, when these are actually 12” records. I’d like to see a separate designation for rpm and record size if possible! Otherwise everything seems great so far!
