Monster Jam Collection

Best app I have found to keep track of our hundreds of monster jam trucks! Love this app and it’s super easy to use

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind words! That's quite a Monster Jam collection you've got! We're really happy to hear Shelf is making it easier to keep track of everything. We appreciate your support.

Amazing

The developers are so responsive and after more time using it I really started to feel like it was great for connecting with other collectors. Keep up the good work!!!

Response from developer

Thank you for your honest feedback! We completely understand your point. Shelf is still growing, and building an active community is one of our biggest priorities. You can help us get there by spreading the word and inviting fellow collectors to join! The more collectors we bring together, the better the social experience becomes for everyone. We really appreciate your support and hope you’ll be part of Shelf’s growth!

Amazing app but please fix bugs🙏

I was looking for an app to keep track of my childhood toys collections and i accidentally found this app. It’s so aesthetically pleasing and easy to use, in other words perfect ❤️ But while making my first collection i’ve encountered some issues that really ruin my experience and i really wish for them to be fixed. So: 1) When editing your collection if you add any attributes and later you want to change them (delete/edit names/add new ones) they are not showing in collection editor no more so that means you either have to add them again (and if you do so the previous ones will be removed) or just accept it…i had to redo my toys descriptions from scratch because i wanted to add new attributes and all of the previous ones were removed 💔 2) i have no idea why this keeps happening to me but when i make a full description of my toy with attributes - after some time these attributes become blank again and disappear from toys descriptions. It happens from time to time and even if i add them again they are still disappearing after some time. They are co convenient but it’s impossible for me to use this feature and i have to add all of the toy attributes into description because this is the only thing that stays. + A suggestion - 1) add tag search by your collection only, i don’t really need the global one but i wish i could search toys with the same tags and attributes in my collections. 2) I wish i could select all of my items and transfer them between collections at once, like organising pins on pinterest. Though if you fix all of the bugs that i’ve mentioned i literally would stick to your app forever and support it🙏🙏 Thank your for your job i love you 🫶

Response from developer

Thank you so much for such a detailed review and for highlighting these issues. We really appreciate it. We’re sorry that the problems with attributes affected your experience, especially after you’d already spent time organizing and describing your collection. We’ll investigate these issues and work on fixing them. We’ve also noted your suggestions about searching by tags and attributes within your own collections, as well as bulk moving items between collections. We’ll definitely consider them as we continue improving Shelf. If you notice anything else, or if you can share any additional details about when the attributes disappear, please feel free to message us anytime through the in-app chat or by email. It would really help us track down the issue. Thank you again for using Shelf, for your support, and for taking the time to help us make it better!

BEST COLLECTING APP

UPDATE 08/2026
Please keep up the great work! The developers are extremely responsive and kind. The app is convenient and fun to use, and most importantly, the functionality of cataloging your items works amazingly well. The automatic deletion of the background of images makes the images stand out and organizes them neatly into different sections you can create. I’m looking forward to future updates with features I wish to see. Definitely the best collecting app I’ve used and I’ve used many, with a few more features this will be literally the PERFECT collecting application.

I really like this app, but…

I use it to keep track of my 1000+ sticker collection. It recently crashed on my phone. I’d love to have the option for my collection to be downloaded as a PDF list (even if it’s not photos included) so I still have the list as a back up if this happens. It’s an easy app to use and I use it almost daily. That’s my only suggestion.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the feedback and for trusting Shelf with a 1,000+ sticker collection! We’re really glad to hear you use the app almost every day. Exporting a collection as a PDF or another backup-friendly format is a great suggestion, and we’ve added it to our feature requests. We also have a monitoring system in place that helps us track crashes and other technical incidents, so we’re aware of issues when they occur and continuously work on improving stability. That said, if you ever encounter anything unexpected or unusual, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us right away. Thanks!
