Sneak Preview: CLZ Books 10.0 – Add books by reading ISBN numbers with OCR
A big v10.0 update is coming up for your CLZ Books app within 2 weeks, so here’s a Sneak Preview!
CLZ Book 10.0 will bring a vast improvement to the Add Books by ISBN feature!
Previously the scan screen could only scan ISBN barcodes, but v10 will also “read” ISBN numbers that are printed on the book using OCR (Optical Character Recognition).
It “has come to our attention”… that many users did not like the new app icon we introduced in version 9.10, as it resulted in Advice, Apathy, Annoyance, Anger and even Aggression 🙁
And after reading all user comments, we must agree, we indeed messed up there. Sorry !!!
Big changes this week, as we have changed our company name!
We were previously called “Collectorz.com”, but as everyone called us “CLZ”, we figured, let’s go with the flow and officially rename the company to just “CLZ”!
But that’s not all. This week also brings:
- a new company logo and styling
- a completely new website at clz.com (previously www.collectorz.com)
- new names for our web-based software, previously called Connect, now simply CLZ Comics Web, CLZ Movies Web, CLZ Games Web, etc…
- new app icons for all CLZ apps!

Thank you all for the feedback on last week’s version 9.7 of the CLZ Comics app! Most users absolutely loved the update, but there was some negative feedback too, by email, on our Club CLZ forum and in the CLZ Comics group on Facebook.
So in today’s 9.7.3 update, we are addressing most of the complaints and suggestions.
v9.7: Various improvements for Add Comics, Statistics and Main screen
Today, a big v9.7 update for your CLZ Comics, with a couple of new features and lots of small improvements all over the app, including a resolution for something that has annoyed many users for over 23 years!
Here’s what’s new:

- New snappy “Confirm” popups replace the old and slow Preview pages
- New look for issue cards on Issue tab

- New Top Artists list, that includes all artist type roles
- New Top Writers list, that includes all writer type roles
- Main screen:
- List and Card View now include the Variant Description for each comic
- Several layout improvements to the comic details page
- New folder options “All Artists” and “All Writers”

Today, a smart tweak to the “Title” tab of the Add Games screen that will save you a lot of typing.
As you know, when you start typing in the Title box, the app always shows you a dropdown with 5 suggestions for the most popular matching games. Tap one of these to instantly select that game.
In this update, we added a new “Search for …” entry at the top of that dropdown, with a smart search suggestion. Basically it tries to “auto complete” what you are typing.
Tap that box to do a Title search on those words.
Today, a smart tweak to the “Title” tab of the Add Movies screen that will save you a lot of typing.

In today’s Movie Connect update, a smart tweak to the “Title” tab of the Add Movies screen that will save you a lot of typing.
When you start typing in the Title box, it has always showed you a dropdown with 5 matching movie suggestions to pick from. But in today’s update, we added a new “Search for …” entry at the top of that dropdown, with a smart auto-completed search suggestion.
Click that box (or hit down arrow on your keyboard, then Enter) to do a search for that auto-completed search term.

This update to Game Connect brings a noteworthy enhancement to your barcode scanning feature. With a complete redesign of the “Unrecognized Barcode” screen, you can now easily add games to your collection even if a barcode is not recognized by the Add Games screen.
Note that this Unrecognized Barcode screen not only makes your life easier, but also strengthens the CLZ Core!
Version 9.5 is here, an update with one change that is hardly even visible in the app, but with big advantages.
For v9.5, we have enhanced the camera barcode scanner to better deal with barcodes that have a 2 digit or 5 digit “extension”. (As you may know, scanning this barcode extension is essential, as that part tells the app what the issue number and variant is!)
In the next few weeks, we will be revamping the Add Games screen. But instead of doing one big update with all changes, we will be working on this bit by bit, in several smaller updates.
This week, we started the project with something that has needed a redesign for quite a while, the platform picker, that is, the tool for selecting the platform to search in. Previously a simple drop-down, we made the platform picker into a nice pop-up screen now, that lets you select your own favorite platforms to be listed at the top!
