Hello,
I have enjoyed Book-Catalogue a lot. Nevertheless, when I was looking for a book organizer in the Market, I felt attracted at first by other two apps: BooksApp and MyBookDroid. And the reason was how the opening page of them were organized. It seemed to me easier to deal with the mentioned apps menus, easier to access the shelves, booklists and so on. They were very visual and intuitive. But they both missed some features that turned Book-Catalogue better, like the better databases where book information are found.
So, I suggest, in a positive way, to consider reviewing the Book Catalogue opening/main page. It would be great if the first page showed the options available: book list, shelves, scan ISBN, etc. Althout Book-Catalogue seemed technically better to me, it is said that the first impression remains, so that is the reason which made feel attracted to some other apps at first. A more friendly opening page would be more captivating.
Congratulations on your great work.
