Yama: Manga Collector

It would be nice if there was an option for users to scan and add in titles manually, because when I tried scanning a few of my series, nothing happened and it simply said that it was an invalid isbn before crashing. (Most notably kindaichi case files and phoenix) Searching for “Dorohedoro” also brings up nothing, but when you scan it, it adds just fine? Lots of small issues like that seem to pop up within minutes of starting the app…. In theory, this could be great, but as it stands…not so much.

It seems like this app worked in the past but was left abandoned and no longer functions. Issues include: - Can’t add books by searching the title, almost nothing shows up. It couldn’t even find Naruto. - In the rare chance something shows up it’ll only show a few random volumes (found Mushishi but only vol 1, 3, and 6 were on the app.) - Tried to see if scanning the barcodes on books worked, it didn’t. - thinks English volumes of some series are in other languages, gave me an error 20+ times, and locked up the app when I tried scanning anything. - dev seems somewhat active on Twitter however does not post about the app development and appears to ignore any questions that revolve around the app or features I think the worst part is that you have to sign up for the app/website before you can use the app. However, there is no way to delete your account so now my information is in the void waiting for this abandoned site to be compromised. (Deleting an account might do nothing to prevent info leaking in the event of a compromise but it’s at least a little peace of mind) Really wish this worked, very clean interface, some cool ideas are there for sure. Hopefully it gets some development in the future.

Overall it’s a great app, but it doesn't have older mangas or doesn't even have some. Some of my friends hardly know how the app works and just don't use it anymore.

Very good collection and sorting system for manga! Only problem is that when adding manga without using barcode scanner you have to type in the exact volume name.

I love this app! It makes it so freakin easy to tell what I have and don’t have and it’s seamless to add new books after my latest manga haul. Absolutely recommend if you collect as much manga as I do. (It is mainly English titles right now but the Dev has said it will be updated to add other languages later) Keep up the good work Raizu!

Loving the app so far and can’t wait for more updates to it! Nice job

First off let this app has a lot of potential. It has a really clean interface and the app is easy to use. Unfortunately the app crashes a lot, doesn’t can older manga (mostly Tokyo Pop), and for some reason some of my volumes of a same series will be added as it’s own series (sailor moon vol 2 goes down as sailor moon 2 and registers as it’s own series). A lot of these mistakes can be fixed if I was just allowed to make my own edits but I can’t. It could also be a lot easier to add manga to your collection. You can search for volumes and go one by one but it’s kind of annoying. It is a free app and I’m sure this is a passion project by the developer so I’m not trying to be to harsh. If this app continues to improve and update this could be easily the best manga app and a must have. I wouldn’t mind paying either if it continues to approve.

Had no problem finding most of the manga I had on the interface. Anything I couldn’t find scanned in. Now I don’t have to worry about which manga I’m still trying to piece together at the store. Thank you.

I have been looking for a good manga library / inventory app. I wanted something that would know what the volumes where and be able to stack all the books in a series. I really enjoy this app. It’s very clean looking. The scanning tool works well I only had a couple books it could not find. This app will save me much heartache of double buying at a book store (which I have done more then once) I look forward to app updates as the dev has time. Thank you for making this app!

Worked great to scan all of my mangas in, in a rather efficient way, but after finally getting them all out in, now my library is just a constant error message.
