Poor search engine

I’ll search for “Funko The Mandalorian” and I have to scroll past a bunch of versions of “the child” then various mandalorian characters then dozens of keychains of the Mandalorian but after scrolling and scrolling have still not found the funko I’m looking for. They put a store barcode over the box barcode so I can’t scan it and search isn’t effective so I’ll be stopping adding my collection with this app at this point. I was able to search for and add my entire collection much easier on the funko app.

Great app

Love the app when it’s working. Lately the app takes way to long to load!! Every time I click on something it takes forever to load. Same goes for the website. I’m trying to get my collection in order to sell and I was depending on the app to help me.

What’s the point of this app??

Why have an app when everything you click on just takes you to the website. I might as well use the website it’s less glitchy than this app.

I was very dissatisfied. If I could do everything in the app instead of being redirected to the website this would easily be a five star review.

The app just seems pointless and just adds an extra step to using the website.

We appreciate your review... its simply a matter of resources... It would be very difficult to have the necessary resources to devote full-time developers to an iOS application, and Android application and a web application. It is much more efficient to design a mobile friendly web application with additional features when using a mobile device (IE, scanning, etc). What about the interface do you find troubling?

Well..

I love this app. I’ve used it for a long time now. Only thing is I HATE the ads. I’d probably pay for an ads free version.

Shannon, thanks for the feedback! I'm not quite sure exactly what you mean. Could you email me at support@hobbydb.com and we can discuss? Ask for Zack

Longtime User

I have been using this/app since it was PPG or Pop Price Guide. I love the app but the user interface is unnecessarily hard to get the hang of. I use this app to keep track of all of my diecast cars, Funko pops, vintage video games and other collectible hobby items. The problem is most of the time only the most expensive items are entered into the database. You’ll always find Chase versions but a lot of times you won’t find the regular. Scanning the barcode is easy, but with items like Hot Wheels, you will still have to scan through a lot of cars to find your item. Don’t give me wrong, I love the app but I just wish it was easier to understand. Example would be, what’s the difference between my showcase and my collection? Buying and selling, is easy as long as you get the right seller. Give it a try, chances are you like it! Thanks

Broken

Every time I try to scan a barcode it sends me to the app store

Doesn’t Work

Tried logging in. Didn’t work and go a 404 error. Tried using scanner for various Funko products and didn’t pull anything up. Tried typing in the search bar and searching that way, nothing pulled up. Would love to rate it highly as this is the best way currently to track a Funko collection, but it didn’t work for any function I tried. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi! So sorry for the delay in responding. Are you still having an issue using the app? That sounds like a network issue... the app requires a constant internet connection to work as it pulls data from our website. Please reach out to us at support@hobbydb.com if you are still having issues. Zack

Have no clue what’s going on with the app.

Was using the app the other day and was scanning my Funko Pops. Had to stop and went back only 90 minutes later, and app seemed to stop working. Couldn’t scan anything. Says I was signed in but had hard time getting to my collection. Would try to scan and opens up another window and then scanning worked but couldn’t add anything to collection. Even when trying to use website (on phone) it would bring me to the app to scan and it still wouldn’t work.

Hi! Are you still having issues? It really is best to contact us at support@hobbydb.com... we can't respond to you directly to help you solve the issue with the reviews online... Thanks, Zack

Great app, bad functionality

I love using this app to track my Funko collection, but the layout is a pain. Clicking on different selections will open up a separate window and then i have to go back into the app to use a different function or reach another page. No other app that i use has this sort of clunky feel. Still rate this high and recommend this to anyone to use. All of the right elements are there, just seems like an overall cleanup/reorganization would make this app fantastic.

Still doesn’t work

Sorry. Still doesn’t work. Wish there was a reliable app to help help up with collection. There isn’t and have tried them all. When you download this app, it’s fine. Going into the app works. Establishing a new account as a new customer? Good luck with that “I am not a robot” button. Mine won’t allow me to check mark the box. Same touch screen on my phone that allows me to enter all my new customer info will not highlight the space so that I can sign up. I’m as human as possible but not with this app. Seriously, I’ve tried several different things and still no luck. I really had hoped to find something to help with my collection. It came highly recommended by a friend who’s never had a second of trouble. *sigh*
