I found this aspect of the Android app confusing. Not wrong, just not so easy to discover:
----------------------------------------------------------
From the (+), if I type or speak an ISBN or title, candidate media pop up. Nothing happens until I click on a book, then click on "add to library".
Pressing (+) then the barcode symbol, and each book is added directly to the library the moment the UPC scans.
These two methods are just fundamentally different, and bears some more UI hints.
----------------------------------------------------------
The bar code "review" screen lets me delete entries.
LibraryThing will often get a bad read, while I'm still just brushing the edge of the bar code with the camera, not even really in the proper place yet). So it would be nice to be able to delete the bad scan, then see a count of the books scanned (e.g. I have a pile of 10, and see 10 good covers, I know I'm done).
Most confusingly after doing an ISBN scan, and pressing "review", there's no "done" or "commit" button. One should be added.
------------------------------------------------------
It would generally be a lot faster if I could enter an ISBN and a publication year in the same search, to narrow down the proper edition.
