About Shelves APK
Table Of Contents
Description
*** Hello friend. Shelves is now an open source project. You can access the source code at https://github.com/gjtorikian/Shelves****** Development is now entirely dependent on open-source contributions. My infinite gratitude to the people who downloaded and supported this app, as well as everyone who offered words of praise or encouragement. It was for you all that I kept this app going for so long. ***
Shelves is an Android application that manages your collection of apparel, board games, books, comics, gadgets, movies, music, software, tools, toys, and video games.
With Shelves, you can add items in a number of ways, such as:
* By scanning barcodes
* From the Internet
* Entering details manually
You can also import and export data from a variety of sources, including Google Books, Google Drive, BoardGameGeeks.com, or Shelfari. There's also full support for software such as Dropbox, Delicious Library, and MediaMan.
Shelves lets you organize your collection by:
* Providing sorting rules on title, price, author, or format (CD, DVD, Vinyl, e.t.c.), and more
* Searching across all available item attributes
* Tagging and filtering your collection
* Allowing for the selection of multiple items
You can loan items to friends in your contact list, or rate items for your personal use. You can also opt to place items in a separate wishlist category.
Additionally, items can be in any language!
THIS APPLICATION IS SUPPORTED BY ADS. YOU CAN BUY THE SHELVES UNLOCKER ON THE MARKET TO REMOVE THEM. Additionally, some features are unavailable, unless the unlocker is purchased.
Thank you to everyone who supports a one-man development team, acting as developer, tester, documentation writer, as well as customer and public relations. I wouldn't do this if it weren't for all of you.

The following is a list of permissions that Shelves requests, and the reasons for their use. If you're not satisfied with the explanations I have here, by all means, contact me and I'll try to explain them further.
The following permissions deal with sending and receiving your collection to Google Spreadsheets. Google is VERY serious about account security, and as such, Shelves has no idea what your login credentials are. Shelves does NOT ask for your password. In this case, Shelves is only asking the Android/Google system whether or not you've successfully logged in:
* MANAGE THE ACCOUNTS LIST
* USE THE AUTHENTICATION CREDENTIALS OF AN ACCOUNT
* GOOGLE SPREADSHEETS
* GOOGLE DOCS (Google Docs in this case is not Google's online word processor, but rather the entire Google Docs suite)
* DISCOVER KNOWN ACCOUNTS
* VIEW CONFIGURED ACCOUNTS
* READ GOOGLE SERVICE CONFIGURATION
This connects Shelves to the Internet, and lets it download all the item information (covers, descriptions, e.t.c.):
* FULL INTERNET ACCESS
* VIEW WI-FI STATE
These manage how Shelves loans to your contacts, and adds reminders to your Google Calendar:
* READ CONTACT DATA
* READ CALENDAR EVENTS
* ADD OR MODIFY CALENDAR EVENTS AND SEND EMAIL TO GUESTS
This permits Shelves to access the cover images and import/export files to the SD card:
* MODIFY/DELETE USB STORAGE CONTENTS
* MODIFY/DELETE SD CARD CONTENTS
This keeps Shelves awake while imports occur. If the device's screen goes dim or falls asleep, the import could fail:
* PREVENT DEVICE FROM SLEEPING
This is necessary for Shelves to store your account preferences when doing an automatic backup (only for Android 2.2 and above):
* MODIFY GLOBAL SYSTEM SETTINGS
* * *

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
1 ★I wanted to import my boardgamegeek collection. I kept getting errorsso went to the help and the instructions were so convoluted I gave up. Having to rename a file to something specific, and connect your phone to your PC, just to import a file, is ridiculous.
1 ★Use to work, now unable to add anything new. Even unlocked it is useless. This was a great app,not any more. It's been down for months and it doesn't look like the issue is going to be resolved. If the developer is reading, please fix this.
2 ★I find it indispensable for keeping track of which DVDs I have (which I see is now a couple of thousand, blush!) It is not perfect, and there have been some problems with some updates over the years, but it is still the best purchase I have made on the Play store. Thank you. Update - the server that allows you to add items from Amazon's database has been down for two years. It was great, but I have switched to LibraryThing.
3 ★Love the ease of adding for the most part. I've had minor details on that. So my problem is I just upgraded my phone but I need 2 rescan all my movies. I understand if I purchase it sounds like you don't need 2 rescan but how much a month isn't specified. Is it per month or year???(8/25/17ish) Now I'm having trouble scanning and having my movies go in. 9/23/17
2 ★Can't rotate manually uploaded photos, can't search for Australian books (there are some great ones that just won't scan!) Can't confirm book details while scanning, and can't take a photo of a cover from the app. Would also LOVE to see an option to add manually straight from the ISBN numbers that defect.
2 ★Just all the images are super tiny. You end up with a shelf full of things that are no more than 10 pixels tall.
2 ★No support, after purchase app was junked. Uninstalled and discovered MyMovies. Better organization and a lot less fuss. Sorry no longer going to even suggest this product.
4 ★Best app that I found for CD's and books. A few minor issues, wish online search would retrieve more than 10 items. Worth the price with the upgrade.
2 ★How can this still be advertised when it doesn't work??!! Developer I'm begging u please fix!! Upd: After scanning, app shows "Adding" continuously. Never does anything else. Got a new phone and like other reviews, can't import none of my exported files!! Developer doesn't respond. If they're not going to provide support or at minimum maintain what's being advertised and charged for, Google should look into it. Why do tags you have added not show up? And why does price not show when product details open up?
3 ★This app could be better, I hate that the item icons are so small now. I want to put this to me use but not until I can see the items clearly on the shelves so until then my rating stays at a 3 star
2 ★The books on my shelf are micro sized. You can barely see em, will increase rating when it's fixed
1 ★Loved this app until recently. Exported all movies to Google Drive because the usual export to a text file didn't work. Got a new phone and installed the app. Now I can't import my movies back into shelves from Drive. Complete waste of space.
