What's new in CLZ Games Mobile?
Coming up for CLZ Games: catalog your amiibo, Skylanders and Infinity toys
A major upgrade is coming up for the CLZ Games mobile app (as v10.0) and the CLZ Games Web web-based software, with one big new feature:
Catalog your Toys To Life figures:
amiibo, Skylanders, Disney Infinity, etc…
Fixed:
- The bottom collection tabs were invisible
Fixed:
- A crash could happen on start-up
- A crash in the Add Hardware screen
What’s New:
- Optimized startup process for a quicker launch
- Improved Sync with CLZ Cloud: Smoother and faster, especially with image downloads
Fixed:
- Problems could occur when updating to new app version with an incorrect login
BOOK ONLY FIXED:
* Rare crash when showing keyboard in Add by Title/Author
This is a recommended security update:
- 2FA support: if you have 2FA enabled on your CLZ Account, the app will now ask you for the 2FA authenticator code when you log in to the app
- Several other changes to better secure your account
- New “Change email address” link in the CLZ Account screen
Fixed on Android:
- On startup, the collection tab-bar on startup could be blocked by Android navigation bar
New: “edge-to-edge” support for Android 15. This means that all screens will now use the entire vertical space. This gives you more screen real estate to (for instance) view more of your game list in your main screen!
Fixed:
- Photo / image picker wasn’t able to access all images on the device
- Side menu: Refreshed background colors at the top
- Details panel: Updated placeholder cover for games without a cover
Fixed:
- Adding games by barcode: Multiple results for a barcode: the confirm button wasn’t working
- Tablet: Barcode scanning didn’t work while in landscape orientation
- Switching between folders would not always refresh the list correctly
- Adding games by barcode: on some devices the barcode queue didn’t appear
- Side menu: Refreshed background colors at the top
- Details panel: Updated placeholder cover for items without a cover
Fixed:
- Add Games by barcode: the add button could show the wrong number of games that were about to be added
Adding games by scanning barcodes is THE most important feature of the app, so we will never stop trying to make the barcode scanner better and better 🙂
In today’s 9.5 update, we bring three improvements to the barcode scanner:
- Now reads barcodes much faster and in the entire camera screen!
- New scanning feedback shows where it “sees” a barcode
- New Type Barcode tab for manual barcode entry and support for external USB/BT scanners
These are the new big video game releases for this week!
- LEGO Horizon Adventures
- Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake
- Farmer Simulator 25
Now available in CLZ Core, for easy adding to your app, complete with:
- Barcodes
- Cover images
- Backdrops
- Descriptions
- Trailer videos
We’ve fixed various crashes that happened throughout the app that.. shouldn’t happen anymore with this new version 🙂
We recommend you update your app A.S.A.P. Your app may have updated itself already (check the menu top left, the version number is at the top). If it hasn’t updated itself yet, here’s how to force the update:
- On your device, open the Play Store app.
- Search “CLZ” and select your CLZ app.
- Tap “Update” to update the app.
- Fixed various crashes
- Small tweaks to the app icon
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…
And, the reason for today’s app update:
- a new app icon that fits the new CLZ styling
- the icon now supports light/dark/tinted device theming!
- new app logos and styling inside the app
Fixed for iOS:
- iPad: Edit / Sort Settings screens were too small since iOS18
A nice update for CLZ Games again, in which we did improvements to several areas of the app.
- Re-design of the Sort Order screen
- New Date and Month folder options for all date fields
- Statistics: new look for Most Recent and Most Valuable top lists
Fixed:
- Edit screen: After cropping a cover, the app would sometimes still show the non-cropped version in the edit screen
It’s that time again….NCBD! This week we prepared 258 new issues with 579 releases overall.
Enjoyed Alien Romulus? Marvel is here to have the Xenomorphs fight the Avengers in Aliens vs. Avengers #1. Image and Skybound are resurrecting a horror icon in: Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1.
DC’s Zatanna goes full Alice in Wonderland trip mode with: Zatanna: Bring Down The House #3. This issue focusses on her miss-use of her magical powers. Don’t forget to pick up BRZRKR: The Lost Book of B #1. This time taking place in the 13th Century fighting for Ghenghis Khan!
Enjoy!
New:
- Better indication and handling of “subscription expired” status
New:
- Better indication and handling of “subscription expired” status
Fixed:
- A crash could occur when searching by title
- For items with very big images, the Edit screen could crash
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.
The app now has a “free 7-day trial” again.
No more 100 item “free mode” or “free trial”. We did our best to make it work, but it just didn’t. So we’re back to the old tried and tested “7-day trial” system 🙂
(Don’t worry, if you already started your free mode, it will keep working.)
Updated:
- Add Games by Title: after adding a game, the cursor will be put back in the search box straight away so you can immediately start your next search
Fixed:
- Statistics: In some cases the order under “most recent” could be wrong
