Comments on LibraryThing for Android

★★★★☆ kenneth fernandes · Jun 14, 2026

The app is good l, but keeps on shutting down when we try to delete a book from the catalog. Please fix the issue ....

★★★★★ Terri F · Jan 29, 2026

I'm able to scan most of my childhood books, and I love the mass tagging when I use the website. Sometimes it doesn't save my book covers on the app but overall great app.

★★★★☆ Randy Chrisman · May 26, 2026

I'm just getting started but so far I really like all that it provides. Pretty easy to maneuver around, but until you get used to it, it may take some patience. I'm just trying to find the barcode scanner to use my phones' camera to scan the books, but even with what and where to find it, I have no clue. They tell me to look for the "catalog page", well, I gave not seen anything that says catalog. I've found "add books" or "import books" but thete is no barcode an either of those pages.

Scanned my first book. It showed two books, one that wasn't mine. Tried to delete the wrong book and it crashed. Evert time I try to delete, it crashes.

★★☆☆☆ James Colaiseno · Sep 5, 2026

Library Thing itself is great, but the app is full of bugs. Scanning books almost always results in either a duplicate scan of the book, or getting a single of scanned book plus the addition of a completely unrelated book. Trying to delete a book causes the program to crash every time, and trying to edit and save crashes sometimes.

★☆☆☆☆ Holly Turco · Aug 31, 2026

I want to love this app, but I scanned a book, and it added 3 to my library. I tried scanning another and it added another 4. So now my collection says 7, but it's really 2 books I have, and 5 that I am unable to delete without the app crashing.
