Failed after several years of use.

I have used Booxter for many years, and have spent countless hours building a database for my digital music, my movies, and my TV shows. I had thousands of entries, and has worked ok generally with few crashes. Then I bought a new iMac with the M1 chip, and Booxter started to crash intermittently, until last week when it wouldn’t boot at all, it crashes every time. I notice that there hasn’t been any updates since 2020, a whole bunch of OS’s ago. I tried everything I could think of. I rebooted the computer several times, deleted the Booster and reloaded it from the App Store, but nothing works. I’m supposed to be up to date, but I doubt the software itself is current to the present OS’s. All my data is safe, but I no longer can access it. THIS PROGRAM BADLY NEEDS AN UPDATE! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!
Good app concept; poor/unreliable support

I love Booxter in principle. It does what I had hoped. Trouble is, some files won't open. Customer support not helpful or, worse, not at all responsive. (I haven't tried recently, but I did repeatedly some time ago. It seemed that they walked out of the store forever while keeping the lights on so that people would think there is actually somebody there.) I would love to access those files -- after all,, they are an important record! (Or they were supposed to be.)
Not worth the money
Helen Clement
I had great hopes for this app. And I have tried repeatedly to use it successfully. But its design just isn't good enough, it doesn't work well enough, and it has no support at all. I mean, not even a FAQ, and almost no instructions. I was really looking forward to being able to get call numbers and subject headings for my books, and I loved the idea of being able to sort and print out lists. I have thousands of books and it is very, very time-consuming to try to catalog them by hand. However, many of my books are old enough to lack ISBNs, and quite a few are even older and lack LC numbers. Booxter can't help me with these! As for printing, it really doesn't work; if you use more than a few fields (and why wouldn't you, when Booxter offers so many?) they don't fit on the paper! I have spent a year trying to get Booxter to be worth *any* effort, let alone money, but at this point I am giving up. The effort of cataloging my books by hand will actually be more rewarding.
Can't Enter Comics

I purchased this product tonight to catelog my comics.I cannot add comics for some reason. It seems like the interface between the online data base for comics and the program is not working. I cannot find anywhere to seek technical support.I tried to use a Books data base and it works great. Unfortunately, I want to use it for comics.
- Many bug fixes
