Review summary

Users like the app for tracking collections and price/variant data, and some report solid scanning. However, recurring issues include poor recognition requiring manual entry, reliability problems, login friction, data integrity problems (duplicates/missing items), and marketplace/auction frustrations.
Pros
  • Good for keeping track of your comic collection (inventory management).
  • Useful price guide and pricing information for comics.
  • Variant cover/edition data helps with identification and exploration.
  • Scanning can work well for many items (noted as effective in several reviews).
  • Multi-feature app that combines tracking, pricing, and variant information for collectors.
Cons
  • Inconsistent recognition/scanning: many comics are not identified automatically and require manual entry, with issues especially for variants and new releases.
  • Performance and reliability problems: app can be slow, freeze, or become unresponsive, with crashes and UI lag mentioned.
  • Sign-in and account setup friction: some users must create an account to use the app, and Google sign-in flows can block usage.
  • Data quality issues: duplicate entries, inaccurate counts/total value, and missing/up-to-date data for new comics.
  • Marketplace/auction instability: laggy auctions, conflicting sales reports, and questionable purchasing/selling experiences within the app's marketplace.

App used to be great. It gets significantly worse with each new update. Hasn't updated price values for the past month. apretty much useless at this point. Really impressive. Looked up 160 comics, some super random, and it found all of them. Even attempts to give a grade based on the photo. Complaints are that it over grades and over values by about 20%. Still, really nice, keep up the good work.

slow... very slow when you have 1000+ comics ands take forever to upload your collection and then sometimes says server error. That doesn't help me when I'm out trying to find books for my collection.

I go to my collection that has several hundred comics in it and it loads the first page with all 48 but can't go to the next page! only fix ive found is uninstall and reinstall. Garbage app hardly loads right. the scanning is garbage too.. it might do one... two if your lucky... then just loads and loads until you force stop the app and then you get to do one or two more. next time I uninstall will most likely be the last.. not worth the hassle. Great premise poor (very) execution

the AI update has made it sluggish and not good to use anymore. it started out fine when I got it 6 months ago .....now its gotten incredibly slow to catalog my comics and often misses one I just scanned. whatever "update" you did, undo it please. I want to like it more.

Used to be a great app, but lately it doesn't recognize 90% of comics scanned, and if it does recognize, say i scanned Absolute Superman #15, it'll show up as Superman #15 from the 40's. The controls are way to close to phone controls to the point they are half hidden. Hopefully an update will fix these issues, and I can love the app again!

The app's features are amazing if only they worked consistently. Several of the books scanned do not pull up and require the information to be put in manually. If you try to scan a 2nd book then the app crashes. The app ends up being time consuming and frustrating to work with overall.

Used to be great and responsive. Now super sluggish when adding comics and ui is always in the way of moving around the app.
