This app is a lifesaver. Having this amount in a collection can make you wonder when you get more whether you have it or not. I do have duplicates in my collection but purposefully so because of collectors editions or the like. This app allows you to scan the barcode and log it into a collection that allows you to see all your dvds at a glance. You can filter any way you want (I do it by most recently bought) and you can search using either a simple or complex search system. It is just an app to store dvd information like the cover and not a chance to view the actual film. This is obvious to many but may not be to some who will see this as a disappointment.
The one major downside is how you can share this collection with your friends. It’s not the easiest thing to do and involves URLs and other things that are not necessary. It does have a feature that allows you to ‘book out’ your films and enter the details of who has what.
A lot of people will think why bother? Netflix, amazon prime or Now TV (streaming services available in the UK) provide me with my viewing needs and for the most part yes, they do but do they offer, correct at the time of writing, the James Bond franchise? 24? The office (US)? All of these have licencing issues that DVDs don’t. This is a bigger issue than this app and ever so slightly off point but the app does allow people with big collections to have quick and easy access on the go to what they have.

I bought a Paperwhite (3rd gen) and I absolutely love it. The screen is fantastic and is perfect to read in any type of light, and there are enough functions available to adjust the display to meet your own personal requirements. It has only 3gb of space, which sounds terribly small, however I have over 500 books saved on mine and have used only 800mb, so storage space definitely isn’t a problem. The battery life is impressive, to the point where I forget it actually has a battery that needs charging, it lasts that long. It’s fairly light and is so easy to carry around and take out, no matter how small my bag is.
My only criticism is around the user interface itself. I like that it allows you to create collections to be able to sort your books easily and also that it can be easily linked to your Goodreads account. However the interface itself is very clunky and quite slow at times. When you’re used to tapping away on smart phones and tablets, it can be frustrating to navigate through the Kindle’s menus which are a lot slower than I’d like. But that said, the interface minor issues are never usually a problem when you’re reading a book, it’s only on the menu/store screens.
But this is only a really minor criticism. I absolutely love my Kindle, and although I do still enjoy reading normal books, the Kindle is definitely here to stay.
