Customer Reviews

A few simple fixes, and it would be WONDERFUL!!
by LaUrEn FaN!!
I LOVE the idea of this app, but agree with the other reviews. First, so many of the barcodes I scan are not in the system, so I have to manually enter all of the information. The other problem is that some of the barcodes scan improperly, so the book has the wrong title in the system.
Secondly, it would be wonderful to be able to alphabetize the books for ease of use. It would also be great to be able to categorize books, as others have said.
Many books purchased from book clubs do not have barcodes, so a manual entry feature for the ISBN # is completely necessary (the ISBN print feature is not helpful without a printer to send the barcode to!!).
I really hope these features are added or fixed so that I can use this effectively in my classroom!!!!
Great Idea
by Arianwyn
I am very excited to try out Book Retriever this school year. Two suggestions:
1. The ability to sort students into classes would help middle and high school teachers.
2. It seems that a unique email is required for each student. This is difficult, especially with younger students. It would be nice to be able to enter an ID number or something else as the requirement.

Thanks for the start on a great app and I look forward to seeing it grow!
Amazing app with a lot of potential!
by Keallison
Thank you do much for creating such a great app, this is going to change my classroom library forever! For those looking to purchase this for the first time, know that it has just started and is not perfect yet , however I am confident it will be (they are constantly adding and fixing things). As someone already mentioned, it would be nice to not have to enter emails for students, as my 2nd graders do not have email. Also, it would be great to be able to enter multiple copies of the same book.
