Book Catalogue is NOT a book reader.
Features include:
* Sorting by author (last name), title, series, etc.
* user-defined sort and list styles
* Search Amazon, Google Books, goodreads and LibraryThing for data
* Searching
* Thumbnails (download, gallery or camera)
* Loaning books
* goodreads synchronization
* Export and Backup
* Bookshelves (books can be on multiple shelves)
Want a wishlist? Just create a bookshelf called 'Wishlist' and start adding books.

Tried to add 3 books. The app failed by two of them.
It's great, but the scanner doesn't work.
I had this app and catalogued me entire library at one point, put all my stuff in storage...came back later only to find the app apparently didn't save any of it after an update. So, the hundreds of books I have in boxes? Who knows what they are.
This has been my favorite app for cataloging my personal library for years, until last year. All of my thumbnails were lost, and I have over 500 books, so going to take a long time to get back. Okay, I can deal with that. However, my biggest issue is that now all the book information no longer enters automatically. I have to choose the book format, series, and book #. I am now having to start looking for a new app and stop recommending this one. Very sad and disappointed.
been using this for years. It's simple to use and robust.
I have tried, but not succeeded, to copy my stored data, from my Samsung S6 phone, to my computer (Linux).
