Latest version crashes every use

Looks to be related to the feature to add "The" at the end of the title? I have almost 1000 movies entered and would really like to continue to use this but not as it currently works. Same issue that is seems to crash while scrolling past where "The " would be in the alphabet - hope this is helpful.

Easy and Free

This is a great app. According to my list I am approaching 500 titles. It is a real help when at a garage sale or during a store sale to keep me from buying duplicates. The database lookup misses once in a while but it is much improved. I took a star off because it cryptically gives the option to restore from phunapps.de but no option to backup to it.

Waste of money….

I purchased this app a long time when it was 1st released, during that time the app was a lovely and worked efficiently. I used this app to keep inventory on all my Video games & blu ray movies. However over the past few updates, it continues to get worse. Now when I scan a new item the app doesn’t even recognize it, even when entered manually it still won’t work! Do not purchase this app in it’s current state! ——————————————————————————— Update: App is still buggy and horrible on iOS9. I recently got a new iPhone and I wanted to transfer/backup my list. However the only way to do this now is to use their website, you upload your XML file and you get a code to use on your new device to download your list. I have over 500 games and movies, I used this feature and all my movies returned, but my folder didn’t! I have a folder for each game system and now everything is under movies. App constantly crashes out. DON’T NOT PURCHASE AT ALL! I will be looking for an alternate for my inventory.

Good app gone bad

Purchased the app couple of years ago and it worked great, however as iOS developed the app did not and now gets as many scan wrong as it does correct. Very disappointing, I agree with other reviewer. Dont buy it is now a waste of money.

No images anymore

This app has always been a bit cumbersome to use. Now with the recent updates you can no longer add images for your movies. No option to take a picture either. I will say the developers do take the time to answer questions quickly.

WAS a great app. No more.

You completely screwed it up. Images dont load, and you cant take a photo if you dont get past the endless spinning circle. Im going to have to find an alternative this is no longer a great app. Far from it.

Almost

Update: camera works much better in bright light. Trying to get the scanner to work takes twice as much time as just typing in the barcode. On my iPhone 6s, the image is always focused on infinity. It would be nice if it defaulted to one foot instead. Hitting the info button in scanner mode opens a blank page.
