iCollect Comic Books App Reviews

App keeps crashing after using for too long, problem needs to be fixed otherwise is a decent app to keep a inventory of the comics you have

Database too small, scanner faulty and will not identify trade paperbacks or hard covers. App randomly freezes and crashes, and now wont even go past the start-up screen. Would be useful to keep inventory of my collection if I could even get it to stay open. What a waste.

They have fixed a lot of the worst bugs so I wont mention previous problems, just thank you for implementing improvements. What Id like to see: Still would like to see a larger database by getting info from some major publishers like vertigo, image, boom, etc. Would like to not have to type in the same writer/artist info for every issue, maybe a way for names to carry over within a series. Would like to be able to add more than 1 issue at a time Would like to have titles be collapsible and maybe series/story arc within titles

The app is proving to be valuable and flexible. I like that you can take a picture of the comic yourself. But on the flip side, the user provided data is a huge pain. So much of the populated data is inaccurate and full of typos. The populated data should come from the developers. Having to fill out all of the names for the writer, inker, colorist fields individually is time consuming and the process breaks down. All of these issues tell me that the developers designed these collector apps around the assumption that the users would input accurate data. But I dont think they considered the ramifications. This app could be greatly improved upon.

This app is truly terrible. Garbage interface and garbage index of comics. Comics are all mislabeled under wrong volume and issue. Dont buy this

If they would do a free trial of this app it would give people an Idea if how this app feels. Its everything I needed to organize my comic collection. If you are just starting out your collection then this app would be perfect for you. And if you have a few hundred already then this might not be for you. Only because their is so much data input. Although if we get more people is in this then the database info for the comics will fill up on their own since the users are the ones that updates the comic info from their adding of their comics. I see lot of potential For this app. All in all I did not want to spend 15 bucks for an app. So lets sum it all up. PRO -kinda cheap. -easy to use - Gets the job done CON - too much data input. Regardless after you scan the barcode

Cool app for organizing collections. Lets you upload your own pictures. You can include your price and condition. Shows your comics as pictures or as files. I like it. Its perfect for me and my needs.

The app doesnt do anything intuitive that makes it better or easier that writing your haves and wants on paper. You can catalogue your comics if you only have modern age comics and a lot of time

So far, so good. It seems to be a solid app with a lot of options. Im just now digging into it, but cant see anything to gripe about. My only complaint is that you cant "bulk scan". Thats such a mild gripe for a solid app. Definitely worth the money. EDIT: After scanning a few books, this app delivered constant errors. It has potential, but dont waste your time and money.

Only scans the main barcode ignores which issue and edition

Does not recognize variants, does not pull that actuall comic from the database you still have to scroll down a shelf of a title to find your number/cover no 1/200 batman variants really a waste for me was hoping to scan my collection in so that I had a portable log of what I have

The first few comics I searched yielded no results in their database and wanted me to enter in all the info. They were simple Avengers old issues with no bar codes. Bogus. Dont waste your money unless you want to do all of their work for them!

Easy to use. Quick and complete. Cloud backup is immediate. Really enjoying it so far.
