Bookpedia for Android

I've been using this tool for years. I have many recent problems with the Android and Android Apps. 1) Android App crashed during cut and past of bibliography 2) Android App does not sync noting that both apps on running on the same network. Please fixt these bugs.

This app constantly freezes and I find myself force quit all the times. I tried Searching a general well known book "The Harvard Dictionary of Music 4th edition by Don Randal". None of its search databases has this item. I had to export from Delicious to Bookpedia. If this generic item cannot be cataloiged I wonder all the otehrs...but I'll stop using it.

In my quest to find a replacement for my homebrew FMP library catalog database, I have been largely disappointed by the pre-built offerings. Delicious Library has a far more polished interface than Bookpedia, but cannot handle custom fields, of which I have many, and Delicious does not easily support the Library of Congress Classification call numbers, which I rely on. I was cautious trying Bookpedia, because the interface is fairly early 2000's, but it's really what's under the hood that counts, and Ballotpedia proved surprisingly robust. I was easily able to import my tab delimited file, and with some creative use of custom fields, I captured all the information I am tracking for my 1,000 personal library. But what made my day was not only does it appear as if Bookpedia seem to sort by call number (a monumental task, as call numbers are as anti-technology as one can get for something intended to orgnaize data) *but* I actually had Bookpedia provide missing call numbers, saving me the lugubrious task of manually acquiring call numbers, or cobbling together fake call numbers. The only downsides are that Bookpedia tends to crash when I try to change the default grid view, leaving me have to redo the effort and that I can't really customize the record detail view as far as layout (for instance, I would like "stack" and "shelf" to be first and together, and not placed in the middle or broken up). Hence 4 stars and not 5. In general, it is quite possible that Bookpedia will do exactly what I need - keep track of my books and allow me to quickly find a book by tracking its location in my bookcases (I have 4 in my office, and three in my bedroom). But just for the call number management alone, this app stands out from the crowd and it's price is well worth the investment.

I have started using this for my library and have only enter a little over 200 books but it is working well. I am only giving 4 start because of the initial search kept changing the ISBN I scanned and showing paperback and audio books. Once I removed Dog House and Casa del libra from the sites used, information was much better and I haven’t had to use Amazon as much.

I really love this app!!! It is easy to use, colorful and really well done. II researched a TON before I got this app. I was able to download information on even my obscure books from the 80’s. It is a great tool for me to keep all of my books organized rather than just using a standard word document.
