It’s pretty cool and super easy to use. Love the way the shelves and libraries look and how easy it is to organize. I do have a few suggestions and 1 bug fix. Sorry if this gets long. Wasn’t sure where else to note these. Problem with selecting book covers. I select the right one but then a few minutes later it changes back to wrong cover. I finally got it fixed by adding a screen shot pic as my cover. It doesn’t happen on all books though. I found that all the library backgrounds all have to be the same. Would be awesome to be able to select different backgrounds for different libraries. When adding a book to multiple libraries, it’d be nice if the copied over with all the same selections. I found that I have to go in a re-rate them and select if read or is a TBR and what format the book is (hardcover or paperback etc)When adding a book manually, is there a way to add a synopsis? It’d be nice to have a notes area below the “stars” rating for each book just in case I want to remember something Finally, it’d be helpful to have button choices where you can select if you “own” the book, have “pre-ordered” (because I forget) the book or if it’s a wishlist book.
Love it

Everything is actually free and you don’t have to pay crazy amounts to decorate your own shelf. You can easily customize your book shelf’s, your books cover, book spine and the background. You have the ability to scan your books you have to add to shelf and if wanted you can use your own picture of the book and spine to customize. You can add the books to series to easily sort through. If you don’t have a book for said series you can add the missing book to “hunt” aka the books you still need to buy. You also have the choice to have several different libraries as well, which I love. I get too have my physical library and my kindle library separated. Of course as most book apps you get to track what you read and the dates you read them as well as the rating you would give. I would like to say it would be nice they give you an option to add personal notes to the book you’ve read. I’ve also noticed a couple of time now while adding books and pictures my screen will zoom in and no way of correcting the issue other than exiting the app and restarting. Sorry this was a bit long but this app is definitely worth!!!
• NEW — Real Book Spines: your shelves can now show real, photographed spines and pretty sprayed edges contributed by the MOBS community, matched to the books you own.
• NEW — Dark Fantasy and Dark Romance genres.
• NEW — A show/hide button on password fields.
• You can now add an ISBN to a book you saved earlier (handy for pulling in a matching spine).
• Smarter duplicate detection when adding books without a barcode.
• Thanks for reading with MOBS
