Complicated

This app is so complicated and there is so much tabs and I thought there is audio books. Worthless do not download

Birthdate

First thing when opening the app, it asks for my birthdate. Calendar pops up and it seems I am going to have to scroll through to 1956. I didn’t do the scroll. Wow. Please fix.

I hate you

It’s terrible I can’t read my own collection so it sucks

hate this

i hate the adds so much

Not like advertised

It’s not so much to keep logs of your collections, it can keep logs of literally anything and share it with their affiliates. Plus, you have a feed to see other people’s posts. I just wanted to track my own collections in private.

Best App Ever Made

I’ve been using this app for a couple months and it has taken the place of several apps for me. It is the best app ever made!! You can make a collection for anything. No more forgetting, no more having to use several apps for tracking and documenting, easily find inspiration from others, entries are quick, and everything is beautifully displayed!!
10/10 ❤️

ADS

WAY TO MANY ADDS🙄🙄

worth downloading

if you love your notes app but wish it could be even more detailed and organized, then thingsbook is for you. my friend knows that i’m obsessed with my notes app and i love writing anime reviews so she recommended thingsbook to me. it’s a 10/10 especially as they keep updating it. i’ve emailed them a few times about updates i wanted for the app and they’ve gotten back to me and implemented some of my suggestions. overall, it’s a solid app that i really enjoy using. i wish you could format the texts (e.g. right side, centered, left side) and i want more fonts. besides that, it’s great.

Things I love about the app things I want you guys to improve about the app

I like the app so much I’ve been telling everyone that I have this app and it’s really good for someone like me like I really sometimes I just need somewhere to store all my things I watch everything is just like in one place But there’s not any option of like putting your profile to private like I want my profile to be private. I know there’s an option to put your things in private, but I don’t think it really works like I don’t know how to say this, but I want my profile personally my profile to be private. I want you guys to just have privacy give people privacy on their thing. Some people just wanna share but when you keep it yourself like a little note something like that just for yourselves and I appreciate if you guys did that too.

Needs work

Video games not supported in catalog is a bummer for me. I mainly use this app for movies, video games, and books. Without a video game catalog it limits me on what I can see in my collection

Thingsbook

I like it but I think it should be named something else maybe brainstorm some new ideas

Good Foundation, Could be better

I love this app so much, I use it primarily to store my
Physical Collection of movies and books but one thing I wish was available was to have the ability to collaborate with friends with collections and albums we share irl.

This is a great app but it can be better. Keep up the great work!

No Video Games in media

The draw of the app is to have a digital collection for shelf and display items, but there’s no option to add video games or board games under media.

Big No For Me

it keeps logging me out every time i go into the app i have to keep signing in, you know how annoying that is or getting glitches where i get kicked out of the app! there are better options left this app all together not worth the hassle

A Work in Progress

I’m happy to be patient, since it seems they’re working on implementing features and options at a steady and brisk pace, but for now, I can’t put it higher than 4 stars. However, there are two things that would easily put it over the top for me:

1. Make it so you can pull IMDB data for Seasons 8 and beyond! I genuinely don’t understand why it stops at 7 on ThingsBook. It would be such a simple thing to make the feature feel complete!
2. If possible, try integrating with Metacriric, so we can pull nice images for our favorite games! Right now, games are just a slapped on feature, which is a shame—the dedicated spines look a lot cleaner.

Great job on the app!

Update🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I love this app completely, an update you should make is that you should be able to hide collections, posts or anything you don’t want to show in that second when you share it. And when you share it again it’s like new but you can only see the date from when you shared it, hide it, and shared it again.

another app with a "feed"

pros:

in the organize page, love the way the books appear, and scrolling through them is satisfying

love how i can group not just books, but any media. some types even get their own cover shape, such as movies look like dvd cases instead of books. i can also organize placs


cons:

has a social media like feed i cant disable. kinda wish it wasnt so front and center

seems to be missing some books, and while i can add them in manually, they get no picture. wish i could upload my own

wish i could make subcategories, or otherwise group book series, i can only add individual books.

Hope it gets big

I really love this app I hope it gets big so more people use it

It’s good

It’s very good for collections but it took me a while because there was no instructions but otherwise it’s good.

A million ads

The more ads I see for this app the more I don’t want it. I downloaded it and STILL got ads for it. I’m so over this thing.
