### 4/5 — Need more refinement

*2020-04-26, version 2.5.1*

It takes a while to scan the code and previous code requires to be deleted.  It is cumbersome to delete previous item code.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2019-07-13, version 2.5.1*

I just got this and tried scanning about 12 of my books. Only four of them are in whatever database the app is using, so I would obliged to manually enter the information for the rest. The user interface does not refresh the middle part so it took me a bit to understand that after you scan, you should click the load button to see if the information can be loaded. Also the default setting is “borrowed “ and you would have to manually update each book to “purchased”.

### 5/5 — My Library Review

*2018-06-04, version 2.5.0*

What I like most about this app is the ability to scan books. I also like all the information and picture of the book after scan is complete. This is exactly what I wanted.
