Comments on Book Library for Android

★★★★★ Love this app. Do not know what I would do without it. Keeps all my books and book "wants" organized. Simple to use.

★★★★★ Love it! I finally found an app that lets me customize how to categorize my books and finds them when I need them. Love that you can keep track who has borrowed a book. I couldn't ask for more!

★★★★★ This is the only library app I've found that lets me sort and view book titles based on their number in a series. Valuable for that feature alone. If it would just let me choose the number of authors I want to view, it would be ideal. The current default of 4 authors takes up a lot of unnecessary screen real estate. Not many books have more than one author, unless they are textbooks. Import of data is not always 100% perfect, but is usually easily adjusted. A very functional app.

★★☆☆☆ It won't scan my books. Keeps saying this books is already in the library, but it's not

★★☆☆☆ This app worked really well until you find that you can't back up because it doesn't allow you to. Even when you attempt to use the recommended fix, it still won't back up

★★☆☆☆ Pitiful did not find any if the first 4 books. Waste of time don't download

★★☆☆☆ Good for scanning but finding ISBN details of a list of scanned items takes over 5 mins per book unusable slow
