A special update for the slab collectors!
Three years ago, we introduced a new look for slabbed comics, with generated “slab frames” around the cover images, with blue/yellow/green labels at the top the grade at the top left, even showing actual Custom Labels. Making it super easy to spots your slabs between your raw comics.
For several reasons, that feature was only implemented in the Card View and on the comic details pages. Not in List View (we figured it would be too small) and in Images View (technically complex because of the configurable size).
However, our mobile developers Pim and Bernard gave it another try and did make it work this time.
So that’s what’s new in today’s 10.7 update:
The generated slab frames are now visible in List View and Images View too!
A small update for the CLZ Books app, with two changes requested by users:
New: Disable the downloading of book values
In April 2025, in version 10.2, we introduced one of the biggest new features ever: the automatic downloading of book values. The feature has been requested by many users for years, so the introduction of this feature was a huge success: MOST users loved the new values!
However, a small group of users absolutely HATED the new feature. They found the values annoying, not necessary, too “commercial”, etc…
We did not see that coming…. our fault. Maybe with our years of experience as software developers, we could have expected this. Guess we were too excited about the feature ourselves 🙂
Looking back, we should have made the entire feature OPTIONAL from the start.
Of course, making it optional is still possible and that is exactly what we did for this update today. If you don’t want automatic values for your books, you can now disable downloading them via the new “Download Values” toggle in the Settings screen.
When you disable this setting, no book values will be downloaded anymore for any future books you add. On top of that it will also remove all automatic values you already have (any “My Values” you have will remain).
New: Search your database by ISBN13 or ISBN10
For all books in your database, the app normally stores the ISBN in ISBN13 notation, even for older books that original had an ISBN in ISBN10 format. However, this caused problems when searching your database using the ISBN10 notation, it would not find the book.
In today’s update, we fixed that, by including both the ISBN13 AND the ISBN10 notation in the app’s internal search index.
Searching your app by ISBN13 or ISBN10 will now find the book, no matter if you have ISBN10 or ISBN13 filled in for it.
Fixed:
- iPad only: Tap area for certain pick list fields in the Edit Book screen wasn’t correct
How to update your app to the new version:
- On your device, open the App Store app.
- Search for “CLZ” and select the CLZ Books app.
- Tap “Update” to update the app.
Fixed:
- Pre-fill screen would show twice before adding
Fixed:
- A crash could happen in Add Comics by scanning the cover
Fixed:
- The Add Comics screen could crash if a result without any popularity was shown
Since we launched the Cover Scanner feature, just over a year ago, it has grown into the most popular method of adding comics and checking values. Four months ago we already did a big update to the feature, to make it easier and fast to use (less clicks) and to add a much requested Queue Mode.
Today, we are doing another update to the Cover Scanner, to better help you select the correct match:
- Improved recognition of Newsstand vs Direct editions
- A new Variant Filter to always hide specific variants
- Popularity indicators for each match
Also new in this update, a small but helpful addition to the Check Value screen:
- The Grade selector now has a new “-none-” option, so that you can easily check values without setting a Grade.
Fixed:
- On iPad devices the add screen would crash upon opening
Adding games by scanning barcodes is one of the most popular features of the CLZ Games app. Just scan barcodes, bleep, bleep, bleep, and the scanned games are added to a “queue”. Then use the Add button at the bottom to add all queued games to your database in one go. Quick and efficient.
However, we always like to keep improving the app, or at least give users multiple options. So today we have added a new “One-by-One” mode to the Add by Barcode screen, that is, without a queue.
Fixed:
- When selecting movies in Card View the cards didn’t appear to be selected (with a blue color)
Adding albums by scanning barcodes is one of the most popular features of the CLZ Music app. Just scan barcodes, bleep, bleep, bleep, and the scanned albums are added to a “queue”. Then use the Add button at the bottom to add all queued albums to your database in one go. Quick and efficient.
