Cover scan question

Comics CLZ Comics Mobile
1

Went to a show last weekend and was using; “ad comics from core - cover scan” to see if I already have the book. If the issue # is shaded blue I know I have it. If not then I know I don’t, then if I need to check other books I hit the camera refresh button( I did not click on add comic to collection). But when I got home and started to add the books to my collection it shows they had already been added. Is this normal or is there an issue with the cover scan?

Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark,

When you scan a comic, and do not hit “Add to Collection” the comic can not be added to collection.

If you scan a comic, and tap the “camera” icon top left, you will just start a new scan.

I’ve just tried it here, scanned about 5 comics without tapping Add, and tapping the camera button each time, and after that I do not see them in my collection.

If you do have this, please can you show me in a video where you reproduce the problem? Because that does sound like a bug but I can not reproduce it.

The video should show:

  • that the comic you’re about to scan is not in your collection (just open that series in your app)
  • then scan the comic
  • then scan another comic
  • then close the add screen
  • then show that the comics you scanned did actually add?

Here’s how you can make a screen recording on your Android device:

  1. Swipe down twice from the top of your screen.
  2. Tap “Screen record”.

If “Screen record” is not there, you might need to swipe right to find it. If it’s not there, tap “Edit” and drag “Screen record” to your Quick Settings.

  1. Choose what you want to record and tap Start. The recording begins after the countdown.
  2. To stop recording, swipe down from the top of the screen and tap the “Screen recorder” notification.

You can find the files in the Photos app in Library > Movies.
You can send me the file(s) via:

Thanks Alwin, I have not been able to reproduce it either. So I’m thinking I inadvertantly hit “add to collection” instead of the camera icon.
