However, many express frustration with the absence of account support, making data transfer between devices problematic, and unreliable backup/restore functions. Missing features like batch scanning, genre classification, and ISBN storage limit usability. The app's sorting requires manual adjustments, and attempts to link cloud backups often lead to crashes.

One of usless app. Doesn't work at all

Tshering Dorji, 2022-08-04

Takes too many clicks to add a book. Needs a batch scan mode. Doesn't store much information about books - for example, no ISBN. Not enough features for me to mend this app.
