Review summary

Users appreciate the concept of AR Reading List for tracking books and creating reading lists, but criticize it for frequent scanning failures, an incomplete or inconsistent book database, and technical issues such as poor responsiveness and image focus problems. Many users report that popular AR books are not found, quiz numbers differ from the official AR site, and the app often does not function as expected, limiting its usefulness.

Pros

The app introduces a useful concept by helping users track and list books related to Accelerated Reader (AR).
Provides a platform to create and manage a reading list, which some users found handy.
Decent for organizing books after manual entry, especially for small book stacks.

Cons

Frequent scanning issues where many AR books do not get recognized or scanned properly.
Mismatch between quiz or AR level numbers in the app and the official AR website, causing confusion.
Functional problems such as the app becoming blurry or not refocusing after scanning few books.
Incomplete or outdated book database leading to missing popular books and multiple entries for the same book with different data.
Poor app responsiveness, including buttons that do not respond when pressed and lack of advanced search features.

2024-10-30	Sa*****	This app is horrible. I scanned books for my 3rd grader and nothing is coming up. I do not recommend at all. Better off looking online for points.

2024-01-13	Ki*****	I really enjoyed the concept of this app, but it wouldn't scan the books I knew were in the AR system and had to type manually. The AR quiz number does not match what's on the AR site. Also, two copies for some books come up and each one had a different quiz number.

2023-10-20	Ki*****	It's ok, but not great. After scanning one or two books, it goes blurry and won't refocus. Also, I have found discrepancies in AR level between their list and the website uses by our school. But it's fine if I'm going through a stack of books, and the ones that don't show up on this app are the ones I type into the website.
