BookDue

Scan the barcode on borrowed books, CDs, and DVDs from the library to register them. Get notified before the due date. No library website login required.

■ Just scan the barcode

Point your camera at the barcode on the back cover and the title and due date are filled in automatically. The due date is calculated from “borrow date + your library’s loan period,” so no typing needed.

■ Get notified at the right time

Instead of daily countdowns, you only get notified when you choose. Items due on the same day are grouped into a single notification — borrow 5 books and you still get just 1 alert.

■ Manage multiple libraries and borrowers

Record who borrowed what (borrower) and which library it’s from. Works whether you use both a city library and a school library, or multiple family members sharing different cards.

■ Borrow history and counts

Returned items stay in your history, and the app counts how many times you’ve borrowed each title. “This is the 4th time reading this picture book” — at a glance.

■ Great for

Parents borrowing stacks of picture books, students or households using multiple libraries, anyone who borrows CDs and DVDs from the library, or anyone who tends to forget return deadlines.
