Almost perfect
I LOVE how I can easily edit everything to suit me. The borrowed and loaned stuff is great too. BUT it crashes 9/10 times after adding something to it. It does however save what you put in before it crashed, so minor annoyance at worst. If this could be fixed it would be a five star app for sure.
Okay but needs an update
This app is a great companion to the desktop app however there are several things that it lacks.
- adding games will only search the one database instead of giving you options from other websites.
- syncing is a nice feature, but having to do it manually every time seems old school
- adding some different view options would be a great help as well.
Good, with caveats
I like Bruji’s products, especially on the desktop. They are to be lauded for continuing to support this older iOS app (just as they do their evolving suite for desktop). What I miss in Pocketpedia is plain ease of use. Ergonomically, it would be a massive improvement if we could flick through, say, movies without having to resort to only controlling the app via the tiny thumbnails. In short, let us move from entry to entry by using the entry details (on the right side of the screen) or, more id
Sync issues
I’ve tried about a half-dozen apps for cataloging my movies and music, and this is by far the most comprehensive and flexible. Unfortunately, I’m now having sync problems. Pocketpedia syncs just fine with the desktop CDPedia app, but it no longer syncs with the DVDPedia app. It’s really a shame, because otherwise it’s just about perfect.
Solid companion app for a nice set of OSX apps
Pocketpedia itself is solid - does what it needs to do, what you’d expect. It’s strength lies in the fact that it is a single companion apps for multiple inventory applications. I use Bookpedia, Gamepedia, CDpedia and DVDpedia. Pocketpedia syncs with all of them and provides access to all within a single application. Just what I was looking for. I walked away from the Collectorz (CLZ) series of applications when they went to a subscription model. Bruji provided me with a solid replacement
At Last!
I can now stop creating a pdf of my DVDpedia library and use this great app. It sync's with your installed application on your computer quickly and easily. This makes staying up-to-date very easy.
Yeah!
Thank you, thank you , thank you… Have been waiting, you know how long. Downloaded, installed and Synced without any problem. I gave it 5 starts because it works perfectly. I'll use it for a few days and report back if necessary...
Finally!
So excited I can finally sync everything! And over wifi!! So far, seems to be well worth the wait :) thanks for making a great product.
Yes !
Finally I can stop handling spreadsheets/pdfs to review my book collection on the go (over 6000 books in bookpedia) - app syncs perfectly to iPhone and iPad - Thanks Bruji !
Not a free upgrade.
This app does not seem to offer any additional functionality over Pedia2. So if you still have a copy of the old app, for $2.50 you will only get sync bug fixes as the new app is not a free "upgrade" for existing users.
Better
This is getting there but I want to be able to scan my movies though my phone to add to my library. I would love to be able to scan a movie at a store to know if I have it already.
love it
If you have one of the desktop pedias, this is a must-have

Good app
One request: Dropbox or iCloud sync.
Wonderful Addition to the Suite
I have three of the 'pedia's and this syncs flawlessly with them. I wanted the ability to see collections on the go, and this does that in style. Adding to the collection on the go is easy with barcode scanning.
it’ok but...
... version 3 doesn’t syncronize with new version 5.6.1, please advise
Sync problem

LIBRARY STOPPED SYNCING WITH MAC COLLECTION
Used to enjoy reviewing my collection from iPad, but now it is out of date with my iMac database. It pretends to sync, but no changes occur. Fix it please!
Decent Companion App But Needs IPhone X Update
It has been a year since the app has been updated and still does not support the new screen layouts for the iPhone X line. It’s frustrating to look at my collection on my phone. That on top of still having to manually sync with my computer and no iCloud or Dropbox support has me seriously considering a new app after using the desktop app for over 10 years now.
