Home Library Lite

Had issues with exporting the cvs file. Didn't recognize some of the barcodes trying to inventory.

Used to be soo good but now none of my movies can be found to add.. frustrating

Decent app, but would really like the ability to import from Excel/CSV/Text. Also, contacted developer and no response so not pleased with the lack of support.

21.09.2015: The maximum of trying out 15 things is o.k... Íf you want to test out only one thing; but if you want to wanna test out books ánd movies ánd music. I contacted the application maker weeks ago now; bit still received no response till this point. - 09.02.2016: still no answer, does alto not respond to this feedback: > it looks like developer abandoned his apps. - 21.05.2016 I see that last update has been in 2013, I feel not safe buying the app. And still no respond whatsoever.

I would buy, but with the paid app reviews, plus the free version already showing signs of problems, i think I'll hold out for a better app. Going through my list, the covers sometimes show up, and sometimes show one of my other books on it. And wrong isbn when scanning old books with 20 digits. I'm using on my phone Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.

For what this Lite edition is, for keeping a maximum of 15 books, CDs, etc., this is fine. But, for a test of the full edition, perhaps not. For someone with a large collection of hundreds or thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, etc., having an easy method of input is crucial, otherwise the application is a non-starter. This is the case with this app. For such a collection size, the only feasible method of input is to scan barcodes and let the app search for the item, li,ke. However, the app will ONLY accept barcodes by using ZXing's "Barcode Scanner" app. Notwithstanding that particular app's shortcomings, there is no way to accept manual input of the barcode (except for ISBNs) to enable typing in the number or using an actual barcode scanner.

Hard to navigate, almost impossible to update information after scan. Need option to select correct movie or book when multiple results are found.

Used this on android phone and it's great on there, then got Samsung Galaxy tab and found there are no settings options displayed, so can't register and sync to get my library shared not both devices.

"Sorry I don't have permission to read your contacts" - fix it or remove the search. Missing due date. Good additions would be Loaned no. yellow. loaned after due date red. Also sending SMS/Call by long pres on Borrower would be nice. And same story goes for Borrowed things - makes life much easier. The it will be worth of the money.

It has a limit. And I would like it to be a higher limit. I have over 200 books. I need an app that doesn't stop after I enter 11 books.

Idea is good, but still some bugs to workout. Galaxy note & phone.

Tried another one and entered 50 movies on the lite version till I was forced to stop or purchase the paid app which was $6. Searched around, found this one where I could enter games systems and games as well as electronics and this was much easier. Despite the reviews for the paid version for this app it was worth it. I can input purchase prices and keep a record of everything. Completely worth it! It's a great deal and if God forbid something happens you have a record of things for insurance.

I was going to buy the app outright, but the developer said to try the free version first to make sure that it works. It does work pretty good; the only thing I'm finding wrong is that it sometimes scans in the barcode with a different number than the ISBN listed underneath. Had to search for the right book. Easy fix. Going to get the paid version now. Have 2 bookcases full to inventory, and this app will keep me from buying duplicates!

Has all the appearance of a cool useful app. I barcode scanned 5 DVDs, 4 went in fine, however my Joss Whedon's Much Ado About Nothing pulled up the Kenneth Branagh version. I searched and added the correct dvd with the correct image and info, opened later and the image was still correct but the info had reverted to the Kenneth version. That's a bit too buggy for me. (4.0.8 version)

This App says I scanned limit of 15 books BUT I only scanned 13 books & only have 13 books in my Library. This App also doesn't scan older books so you have to enter manually. Not sure if Paid version will be better???

Thanks for great app! The paid version is excellent for ios & android!

This review is for the full version, for some reason I can't leave a review there. I didn' ever buy apps, until now. This is just so fantastic. You scan the barcode CDs, DVDs, books, item, whatever! And bing, it counts them up, with books it can put the value of it, or you can enter the cost and it'll add up and show you the total of each section. It found almost ever item I scanned, now I'll never buy the same thing twice! I had some installation issues, not the apps' fault, and the developer was fantastic

I am so excited about this app. Downloaded it tonight, immediately decided to buy the full version, registered a user name so I can sync to the internet, scanned my first 30 books in record time. So glad you created this app and I love that it handles all kinds of media inventory. Well done.

Very nice app. Works great.

Love it!

The pricing is AWFUL. I would have bought the full version if my NCAA Football 09 Xbox 360 game didn't say the price was $24.99. I PURCHASED THE GAME AT A GAMESTOP FOR 2.99.

Looks pretty useful

My Biased Review

The lite version is basically a trial but hoping the 2.99 version works good

I'm going to try the paid version now

I love the idea with this app but the limit of upploading books is 16. You can't load anymore. I have a ton of books, so this app is not going to work for me.

Very nice app. Works great.

It's nice but adds only 15 books or media items in the free version. Disappointed. Was excitedly scanning books. :(

Works good. Easy way to keep track of your media people borrow from you or you borrow from them.

There is a free one and then there is one that you have to pay for. The bar codes that you scan in are not even right....why would I pay for an app that doesn't work most of the time?

I really don't know what the reviewer below is talking about. Good job on a clean looking app that seems to work well. I've tried scanning different books and different cds that I own, the app is the best at identifying them from barcode scans so far (albeit Book Catalogue may be better). IMPROVEMENTS: Thumbnail pics are not clear / HD enough. Really kills the great look of your app. Also, identifying the books and cds can still be much improved. I will buy the app, but will you improve it?

Great little app.Also gives you a personal website to back up your data,brilliant support from developer!!

Still using the "Lite" version, since the developer claims its fully functional but up to 15 titles. Pros for this app: 1. For me, visuals is everything, I wanted to find an app that appealed to me visually with a nice UI and display my books in "Library" style, not just a plain looking list. How difficult could that be? I tried and downloaded at least 4-5 apps before this one, and none had an option of how you'd like to display your books. How hard is it to "copy" a library preview of apps like all the classic E-Readers out there, (like a wooden library)? This goes for this app too, and I suspect they will improve the looks of the library preview mode soon. However, I'm grateful they have it. 2. The different options of importing a new book. You get the usual, (scanning, manual entries,etc), and, this app, gives you the option to also get a picture of the cover, or look for it on the internet if the correct one is not found. 3. The fact that on the central UI page, it shows to you the value of your books, (or other items I presume too, I only use it for books). Cons for this app: Please read my next review - out of spac

I would gladly pay for this application because I do love it, BUT it force closes 80% of the time. So, even though the cost is $2.03 it would waste my money if I can't use it. Sad.
