I purchased this app thinking it would assist me with organizing my books in my classroom by reading levels. After scanning several books very few were listed. Extremely disappointing. Would love to have my money refunded. Would never recommend this app.

This app is a good start. It has most of my books in its system. It is a decent way to keep track of what books I have. It would be really helpful to be able to edit a book when adding it to my “library”, either by being able to manually change the information, or to be able to add a note to that book once it’s been added to a library or classroom. I’ve found that some of my books have levels printed on the book when I buy them, but sometimes the app doesn’t have the correct level or simply doesn’t have a level listed at all. And some of the books are missing other info. If users could edit, these things could be easily fixed. It would also be extremely helpful to be able to manually add books that can’t be found by scan or search. Right now this is not an option. The search function within the “library” needs some work. In the search feature, you can search by title and author. A helpful search criteria or filter would be the level of the book. If I want to pull a level J book from my library, it takes far too much time to click on each book until I find one. It would be so helpful if I could easily find all of the books from each level with one quick search. I think these improvements would drastically improve the usability of the app. If these improvements were made, I would recommend this app to all of my teacher friends. However, right now it’s too mediocre to recommend. I will keep using the app, since I paid for it, and will hope it gets better.

I have been charting my books and organizing by grade levels and I saw an Advertisement for a different app. This one was rated higher and had more reviews but cost more. I went with this one. So far I have multiple books with no info. I’m spending time sending in missing information emails. It rated brown bear higher reading than books like “How do Dinosaurs say Goodnight”. I’ll scan more to see if it stays this way. It doesn’t sort properly because it’s missing so many books or levels of the books. Not worth the $ as it is. The reply I got was any suggestions or how to improve to send an email to support. I have done that with every book missing information. I spent time looking up information and sending it in email and they haven’t added it in. Still missing information. Still not worth the money.
