Reviews of BookBuddy

  • BookBuddy is a Bookseller’s Buddy

    I work in an independent bookshop, and keeping track of our current stock can sometimes be a bit messy. We're a mom and pop type of place, so we kind of just figure stuff out as we go along. However, this app has been the first tool that has allowed me to successfully keep track of all the books with just a click of a button.

    The organization features are stellar, honestly. The only nitpicky thing I would like to see as a feature would be the ability to sort authors by last name, as we personally organize that way. I had to manually edit the names of each author so that when I sort by name, it reflects what I see on the shelves in front of me.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for your feedback! Please note that you can sort authors by their last name by going to Settings > General > Sort Author, and selecting 'Last, First'.
  • Exceeds expectations

    Hello- I would like to thank the developer for their work upon this cleverly designed app, and to recommend it for its utility and value.

    The app is easy to navigate. It features numerous library view and sort filters. Book catalog information is easy to share with friends to ensure accurate recommendations. Adding books, modern and old, is a delight. I use the camera barcode scan for most items, but there is an integrated online search feature helps identify and properly catalog older items (a feature that has yet to fail me). There are numerous ways to customize cover photos and detail catalog information. It also allows me to track my progress with individual volumes. I'm sure I missed something, but these are my standouts. Getting a little war and peacey here, so I'll wrap it up. I'm just impressed with something so well executed.

    This will help manage my little kernel of a home library. It is a remarkable value for the utility, Thank you.
  • We love books!

    Happily paid the charge to put in as many books as needed I just spent a lot of time putting in one shelf worth and we have 148 already! It even shows our duplicates which I didn’t notice all of them right away I can add a format which is amazing as I have audible books as well! I am bummed that quite a bit on the first shelf had to be searched for I wasn’t able to use all of our barcodes I guess the ones that we had to search were older editions of Stephen king and dean knootz books but not a deal breaker I am constantly trying to guess which ones we have and now I no longer have to do that when I’m out searching at thrift shops I can add notes as well like hardback or missing cover or damage as well giving me the opportunity to replace ones that are damaged absolutely love it! We’re in the process of moving so I’m going to inventory all of the books that haven’t been packed yet and once we move I’ll inventory my daughters as they are already packed! I am so excited to have this app I’ll be using it for years!!!!
