  1. [R2] Key Collector Comics App 5/5 · US Best comic collecting app and pricing database I've found so far!: I've recently been tasked with organizing and cataloguing a massive collection of gold & silver age comics, and had been looking for a solution for building a master list of all the books, and this one has been by far the clear frontrunner for apps like this. I've tried several others, and Key Collector has the most thorough data o
  2. [R5] Key Collector Comics App 5/5 · US Love the My Collection Features!: I’ve been using this app since day one, it’s always been great to find the information on key comics, best out there. I took a hiatus from collecting for a few years and am slowly getting back in it and when I started using the app again I found the my collection feature. You can now store you collection on the app and track its value! Even better, the scanning
  3. [R8] Key Collector Comics App 5/5 · US Great app: Easy to use and a huge help in knowing what’s hot in comics
  4. [R10] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Doesn't Have A Ton of Titles: I really like the interface, but it basically doesn't have any of the 300 comics I own. I'm not interested in earning points to do their job of cataloging and uploading them either. What's the incentive? Sorry, but I really need something that's convenient and not making me do extra work during my free time. :c
  5. [R6] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Frozen: Nice app when it works but my iPhone freezes up randomly when using the scan function
  6. [R7] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Seldom Work as Designed: The older basic version was better. Now with the scan to search feature the app freezes after 3 scans. You have to close the app to scan more. When the scan works and shows the details for the scanned book, let's say I want to click on the series and see more issues. You can't because this feature seldomly works when arrived from the scan feature. You have back out to the
  7. [R1] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Price Gouging: With no reason of any kind since the app is pretty archaic, they DOUBLED the cost to “certain” individuals while leaving it cheap for others. Scam and a ripoff. No one from the app responds. Cash grab.
  8. [R12] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Kinda confused but I like it: Good app just wish it wasn’t so confusing and behind a pay wall for stuff also can’t find a lot of comics I have
  9. [R16] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US U have 2 pay real moneys: This app is so horrible it sucks u have 2 pay real moneys
  10. [R20] Key Collector Comics App 5/5 · US Best comic app: Love this app. There is just so much to love from the Top 10 & and 20, future keys. Just so great!!! With this app in been able to double the value of my comics!!! Love this app!!!
  11. [R4] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Be better: Work on your price updates
  12. [R13] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Artificial hype and market manipulation: With the recent popularity super obscure and independent comic books, a lot of the titles have been featured on this app on their “keys of the week” “hot 10” and “trending 20” tabs causing the over hype of under ordered books and independent titles also causing market manipulation in some areas.
  13. [R15] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Good but could be better.: Prices sometimes are not current to sold listings. It’s great to have the information about what issues are of note, but when seeing the prices on the app and going to eBay to see sold listings…it’s different.
  14. [R18] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Questions: Trying to figure out how to share or compile a list from this list for inventory purposes. Not easy to figure out for my wee brain. Also I have another 5500 comics. Is there any way you guys can figure out how to upload multiple comics at a time? Been trying to find the best app. Still digging in.
  15. [R36] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Initial review: I haven’t found a way to export my collection and do a CSV file or someway to get into a spreadsheet would be nice.
  16. [R46] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US No Export: I would advise looking for an app that would allow you to export your collection and data. I would’ve given this app five stars, but there’s no way to export your own issues or wishlist to a CSV file. When going to cons or sending a list of what you want to buy or sell this app is of no use. Especially since I’m paying month you would think I would be able to at least get a list of all
  17. [R37] Key Collector Comics App 1/5 · US Reason: It makes you pay for features you should get with the app
  18. [R66] iCollect Everything 3/5 · US LIMITED: not a bad app overall but unfortunately it’s not really free. It only gives you about 30 scans before it makes you pay for “unlimited access” and of course the subscriptions range from $40 to $100.
  19. [R67] iCollect Everything 1/5 · US Mehhh: I was looking for an app to keep track of my Black Series figures and Funko pop collection and this app was in all of my google searches labeled as FREE. Which it is NOT. you only get 15 scans until you have to buy a membership or upgrade. The price isn’t even reasonable. The cheap option is like $30. I’m sorry, I’m not paying $30 for something I can do in my Notes app. The pricing o
  20. [R72] iCollect Everything 3/5 · US Good but… not actually free: Looks like a free app, has really good customization- but you can only do up to 15 of an item before you have to pay :(
  21. [R73] iCollect Everything 1/5 · US 30 Movie Limit: It needs to be made abundantly clear that you cannot add more than 30 movies to a collection. I would not have downloaded this app had I known that. After 30 movies, you have to pay to add any more items. I personally think a 30 item limit for a collection app called "I Collect Everything" is absurd.
  22. [R21] Key Collector Comics App 3/5 · US Jwtone: Great app for cataloging. The pricing is so far off very disappointing. But other than that I really enjoy keeping track of what I have. The 3 star review is based on pricing and it can’t find a lot of comics.
  23. [R43] Key Collector Comics App 2/5 · US Nice app but very inaccurate pricing!: Pricing is very inaccurate for variants and independent comics. I don’t recommend using this app as a price guide.
  24. [R103] iCollect Everything 5/5 · US Wow jackpot!: This was what I was looking for to help catalog my LEGO collection! Ability to scan barcodes and export in either pdf or csv with custom fields!
