About this app
The LibraryThing app allows LibraryThing members to catalog and browse their collections. LibraryThing is focused on books, but you can add most media, including books, DVDs and CDs. LibraryThing relies on data from Amazon, and over 65 million library records.
Add books by searching for them or scanning their ISBN barcode with the camera.
Add high-resolution cover photos of your books with the cover editor and browse your books by cover type to find copies that need better covers.

Great idea, but the app crashes. Like, a lot. Like, unusably so. Like, shockingly so. Like, embarassingly so. I've had it installed for literally about an hour and was able to scan a number of books. It's crashed probably half-a-dozen times during that period. My phone (Samsung) even alerted me: "LibraryThing keeps crashing." Not good, my dudes. Not good at all.

I love the LibraryThing project. This app works reasonably well to scan barcodes to easily enter books into a collection. As others have stated, it's glitchy in that it sometimes enters the wrong book or enter duplicates. I also can't get it to add a cover image taken from my phone. It offers this feature but will not allow me to 'okay' the final image. It gets stuck there.

Just downloaded the app. All it is doing is spinning when I'm at the your catalog page, and when trying to use the barcode it just repeatedly says authentication error and something about a token. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall and search for help forums. There has been no help in reading any of these. This will be the quickest install and uninstall I think I've ever had. Too bad. Seems like it would be a cool thing to have for my library
