MusicBuddy: Vinyl & CD Catalog for Positive User Reviews

What I neededI am in geek heaven. I have quickly scanned 300+ CDs into this and exported it as CSV for backup. It finds nearly everything, even some bootlegs and obscurities. It’s easy to add something manually and even add a photo of it. Works well and it was well worth the money..Version: 8.9.6

Great app, excellent supportDoes everything I want. It is a joy to use and really flexible. The developers are extremely helpful and have been able to answer my various questions. I recommend the suite of 3 apps which use the same intuitive format. They are among my most used apps. Thanks guys!.Version: 9.3.10

Easy ListingI was desperate to find a way of listing my cd collection so that I could refer to it at record fairs and/or charity shops. MusicBuddy works so well, allowed me to list 2000 items in a few hours and giving me so much information about each album including the art work. When the app doesn’t recognise the barcode it is also simple to add items manually. Excellent app..Version: 9.4.5

Great app!!Very good app,I recommended.Version: 7.6.5

Would love some keyboard shortcutsOverall very nice app, but what's holding me back from getting the pro upgrade is the lack of keyboard shortcuts..Version: 8.3.0

Simple but useful!This is a perfect album management app, I can easily collect and track albums. Also, I can add personal notes about my favorite album. Simple but very useful!.Version: 7.6.1

Great!This is a great app helping me keeping my music library organized. Highly recommended..Version: 7.7.0

Great little appDoes everything I want, scanning is easy and have only had one very obscure LP that it hasn’t found..Version: 8.13.2

AwesomeThis is a truly awesome app. I have catalogued my 1000+ vinyls and 200+ cassettes easily and with accurate and complete track listings, cover art, musicians and dates of release. An unexpected extra was the barcode scanner, online videos and online info… truly amazing and great for completists and music nerds (like me!). Worth ten times the price and you can backup and export your collection to spreadsheet with ease. A great way to really get to grips with your collection and share with others. I wish I’d had this app ten years ago when all I had was a card index! Improvements? How about alphabetical artist listings by second name, Discogs market values, search reveals track, not just album and of course 30 second track audio previews? Otherwise an unbeatable app. How about ability to flag favourite tracks in an album. Also need to flag condition of vinyl albums. Ability to build playlists? Mix tapes? This app has completely revitalised my vinyl collection. Very many thanks guys..Version: 9.2.2

Music BuddyGreat app. A few shortcomings but overall good.Version: 7.6.6

MusicBuddy; toute une application!Je l'ai depuis 2 jours et déjà j'en raffole....Version: 8.3.0

Wonderful App!I really like this App! Easy to use and I especially love that I can manually add music hat doesn’t have a UPC code! Great for organizing digital music and vinyl. I highly recommend!.Version: 8.7.2

A Well Thought Out AppMusic Buddy is extremely well thought out. It is so easy to use. I entered 88 albums in two to three hours. It’s amazing how searching for an album online in Music Buddy finds the album you want, even albums from the 50s and 60s. Sometimes you have to choose the year of release, but only if you are bothered to do so. Using a bar code to search for later albums illuminates that problem and would make entering albums much quicker. After trying the free app for the 50 album limit I paid for the Pro upgrade. All in-all one of my favourite and most useful apps. I’m now using Book Buddy with similar results..Version: 9.1.12

Superb AppHaving just bought this app, and it’s everything I wanted. Highly recommended.Version: 9.4.4

IndispensableFollowing house clearance after a family bereavement we found ourselves with 1000’s of CD’s LP’s & DVD’s to catalogue index Etc..Your software is absolutely brilliant for the task in hand ..Thank You!.Version: 9.3.10

Very good, butI like the app, but it would be nice if it could use the last name of artists in stead of by the first letter.Version: 9.4.2

MusicBuddy RocksWas thinking of doing a inventory of my vinyl LP collection by taking pictures of all of them, but seem like a lot of work, then I thought what if there’s a App for that! Found MusicBuddy and what a breeze to use. Inventoried my collection in about a day of 355+ Albums. Thanks, Kimico!.Version: 9.1.0

Great appIt’s a great app and the tech support from the developer is brilliant, always happy to answer questions very quickly. Before entering your collection though I would recommend have a practice run and make sure you get all the detail you need importing from Discogs in the set up in MusicBuddy. I wanted to distinguish between cd and vinyl and it wasn’t until I started scanning cd’s that I realised the ‘media type’ wasn’t coming in. So I’m having to export to csv, edit, then re-import. No major hassle but I could have avoided it and maybe a later release would allow a ‘refresh’ option from Discogs, to update any additionally selected fields? Just a thought. I would really recommend this app though..Version: 9.5.3

Easy to use, and works intuitively.This is maybe the best money I have ever spent on a app. Gone are the days of using a notebook and pen. I have been trying to think of ways to improve this and the problem is I can not..Version: 9.5.2

Steve Andrews 1959This is a marvellous app and I would strongly recommend it to all music lovers..Version: 8.13.2

Excellent - easy to useJust finished loading in close to 950 items ranging from CDs bought recently to LPs that are over 60 years old. Only improvement would like to see is some more flexibility in Export using multiple filters / sorts at once..Version: 8.12.11

So helpful!What a great way to keep track of my records and CDs. I love to swap lps with my friends, and I am always losing track - but no more!.Version: 7.6.0

Une des meilleures !J’adore l’application! L’une des meilleures selon-moi, avec Discogs. Mais il serait bien de pouvoir relier le compositeur d’une chanson à la chanson qu’il compose (dans l’espace « pistes ». C’est le genre d’application que je cherche depuis plusieurs années, je ne suis pas du tout déçu..Version: 8.11.4

Wonderful systemIt a great thing to have if have a huge music collection.the best thing is your collection is on your phone show your friends what you have..Version: 8.7.3

OutstandingSo simple to add albums - it’s an intuitive and incredibly easy way to catalogue a music collection. Possibly the best app I’ve ever purchased!.Version: 9.3.5

GreatNice album manager app. Tons of features and options to pull data about your music right from the app and sort albums as you like. Loved it. Works even better with the new update. Runs smooth and the categories open fast. Well done..Version: 7.6.4

Not helpfulMy 2016 iPad won’t update past 12.3 so the new 13.0 version won’t download so the app becomes useless.will be delete it and starting again on another make of app.. 5 years down the drain.Version: 8.15.3

Finally OrganizedThis is a great app. Finally organized all my albums and CD's. NO MORE BUYING DUPLICATE ALBUMS OR CDS..... I would like to see a search bar in the app to make it a little faster when searching..Version: 8.6.3

Vinyl Collection PerfectionLove this App to log and track my vinyl collection. Especially handy as a reference when out and about looking for new musical gems..Version: 8.12.11

Keeps Crashing on iOS 13Used to be great. Now keeps crashing on both iPhone and iPad since last iOS update.Version: 8.14.0

Does what i need, and moreI’m not looking for more than a basic catalogue of my albums so that if i’m shopping i can know what i own and what i don’t, so a lot of the categorising fields are superfluous to me, but it’s great to have a track listing on hand to compare versions. one oddity i noticed straightaway: if you tell it to sort artists by Last Name, First Name, you will get some… odd results. Amish Love Child is sorted as Child, Amish Love. it’s a band. it should be sorted as Amish Love Child. i feel like this might be information which could be gleaned from MusicBrainz. the bar code scanner works, which puts it ahead of Discogs’s app (which appears to be little more than a purpose-built web browser for the site). i can scan a dozen CDs and then import them. i scanned about 30 discs tonight and it recognised most of them (all but four). i wish the database it uses to look up the UPCs were more complete, but i don’t mind doing manual lookups for the few albums it doesn’t recognise. considering i’ve got close to 1,000 CD to inventory, it’s a LOT better than having to manually enter (and match releases) them one by one on Discogs. it would be nice if i could link it to my Bandcamp account to inventory my purchases there, but i’m not even sure that’s technically possible. also, there’s an emphasis on loaning items, which is great for people who actually loan their music to others, but i don’t, and wish i could hide that. it reminds me i don’t have any friends. ;).Version: 9.3.9

Great app, lacking in areasI really love this app and wanted it to be the one I used to track all of my vinyls. It worked really well but there are just better ones out there. With an update to modernize the app and maybe make searching more easy, this app would be one of my most used apps..Version: 9.3.9

Money saver!!!Putting this app on my phone saves me from accidentally buying a duplicate cd. I can always check what I have in my library while at the music store; it saves the guessing game of “Do I have it?”.Version: 9.4.5

Great But Please Add DiscogsThis app has everything the others don’t. It’s excellent at scanning in single and multiple bar codes, the search is excellent, the category and tag system is flexible and even the export is much appreciated - though nothing seems to have an import. The ONE thing that has me looking for another App is the Discogs integration. I want to be able to assess the value of my collection and even sell items if desired. If they added Discogs functionality this would be the go-to app..Version: 9.4.5

Great appI've been looking for an app like this for 15 years and this is great.Version: 7.6.8

Fantastic app!I never leave reviews but this app is exactly what I was hoping to find for cataloging my vinyl..Version: 9.1.12

Very Functional & Easy To UseI've just spent some time putting the first 50 albums in MusicBuddy. You should expect a 10% failure rate on obscure labels, older CDs and some boxed sets (especially if the CDs are reissues). The Search the Internet feature worked well the two or three times I tried it. Overall, does what's promised without much fuss. I haven't tried competing apps, but this seems to be a solid choice..Version: 8.2.3

Love itWhen you get to the collection size that i have you need need need this app. Great for helping you not buy duplicates!.Version: 9.4.5

Fantastic UpgradesLove the new PDF export function. This app just keeps getting better..Version: 8.9.0

Perfect buddy!!!This is the prefect music buddy on the road :).Version: 7.6.1

Quality Cd AppPerfect for quick scanning barcodes and adding all the cd details to the database..Version: 9.5.2

👍👍👍👍Finally an easy to use music management app for all my music. This is a must have music app of 2016!!!!.Version: 7.6.1

Love this app!I have about 500 albums and this has been a huge help to get me organized. Now when I am out shopping I have an up to date list so I don’t buy duplicates. It’s so easy and flexible, I love it!.Version: 8.14.1

Perfect catalogue softwareAfter deciding to catalogue somewhere around 3000 albums this program is amazing. Easy to use, small footprint and incredibly cheap. Multiple options of entering the data and the program fills in all the album details including album cover. It actually makes it a pleasure to use. Can’t praise it enough.Version: 9.5.8

Really Good Music Inventory AppThis app is great and definitely worth the £4.99 for unlimited. It was just what I was looking for to list my vast music collection and have it to hand when shopping for more!.Version: 8.14.0

Just what I’ve been waiting for.My son keeps a spreadsheet with all his vinyl to avoid buying duplicates while browsing in record stores! I’ve never had the energy to do that, but this app does the business perfectly. Any albums with barcodes can be scanned in really quickly, but if not, even searching online gets instant results. It’s highly recommended. No more duplicates!.Version: 9.5.3

Good appFantastic for keeping track of my cd collection.Version: 8.10.0

This is nifty but…UPDATED: I’m glad you can ignore articles by switching to “ignore articles” in settings. I have inherited a ton of vinyl, lots of it old and obscure. I wanted a way to catalog my vinyl so I would know exactly what I have, regardless if I’ll ever listen to that. I’m neurotic that way. I *might* someday be curious to know if I own it. Also helpful when I go record shopping to see what I have. I’ve been using the app for awhile now. I appreciate the large database and ease of finding obscure albums. However, there are a few things that I dislike about it. The catalog entries aren’t universally-thorough. I’m assuming they’re user-submitted. Lots of information missing about genres and individual artists in compilations. It’s not perfect, but it’s nice to know what I have..Version: 9.4.4

This app IS my buddy!My husband and I have an extensive record collection and this helps us keep all of it organized. We always have our collection with us so record shopping is easy. We can even add items to our wishlist and keep track of any albums we may have let someone borrow (yeah right). I have the buddy app for books and movies as well. THUMBS UP!.Version: 8.9.9

Not sync problem.I have a tablet with the same app & version that will not sync. When I try to sync the sync dies at about 19%. This has been going on since November 2019. It would be nice to have the same information on the tablet & iPhone..Version: 8.14.6

Outstanding App SupportUpgraded to the paid version, exported the csv file to work on. Had a problem importing the data back in. Tech support patiently help troubleshoot and resolve the issue, really appreciated..Version: 8.13.2

Great organization toolGreat way to view and update your music collection details. I especially like the links to online content that pop up for each album!.Version: 7.6.1

Great App!Awesome App just need one for my retro video games collection now 😬.Version: 8.12.11

Great app!!!I use it to keep track of my vinyl collection. You can add by barcode, web search or creating your own..Version: 7.8.1

Love this one!The only vinyl and cd cataloging app that doesn’t make me purchase it a month or year at a time with a subscription, one price and that’s it! It serves my (OCD) purpose. ☝️🧐.Version: 9.0.11

Excellent!!!!It's super fast and easy to use!.Version: 7.6.5

Nice app!I just started using this app so I can keep track of my CD collection. I have probably 600 CD’s an can’t remember them all when diving at the thrift stores. This is very easy to use even if you have some early CDs that don’t have usable barcodes and have to do a search. I don’t know all of the features of the app yet, but it will serve me well..Version: 9.5.3

Worked for meA bit of a learning curve and could have had more accessible instructions. It saved me a lot of time in creating a spreadsheet of my Xmas cd collection..Version: 9.3.5

Fantastic catalogueTried Discogs. Disappointing. This is well worth the $8 tag. Thank you. Multiple scanning is a PLUS+++‼️.Version: 8.12.10

Great app, lacking in display options, themes, but data richThere are prettier apps out there which display your album/cd art to better advantage. This app lacks the beauty and display capabilities of some of those apps. Where it really shines is the level of data that is tracked and the ability to display it by numerous attributes like composer, orchestra, artist, conductor. If this app added some of the more elegant display settings and themes like CLZ music for instance, it would be the hands down winner. I love CLZ for is beautiful graphical display and themes but as far as tracking data elements, sorting, filtering, it can’t compare with Music Buddy and it costs 3x more. It doesn’t let you add your own categories. CLZ doesn’t even track composer or orchestra, instead focusing on artist only which is less helpful. I cannot for instance see at a glance which cds I have that are composed by Haydn or Mozart. In CLZ I would have to enter composer for each cd manually. In music buddy the cover art is really small, so an option to display it larger or a different theme without media art blended in would be nice. I don’t need to see a cd on each one, since I only have cds. The look is a bit dated. I like the ability to store notes as well for each album/cd..Version: 8.8.1

NICEMUSIC BODY ::::: THIS APP IS VERY INTERESTING......Version: 7.6.3

Useful AppI found this app easy to use and really like the clean, crisp user interface that it has..Version: 7.6.1
