Sound familiar?
Every book lover knows this pain.
You love books. You have hundreds of them. But managing your collection? That's a different story.
- Bought a book you already own. Again. Standing in the bookstore guessing - and guessing wrong. $15-30 wasted on a duplicate.
- Can't find the book you know you own. It's somewhere on one of your shelves. Behind another book. In another room. You spend 20 minutes searching.
- Lent a book and never got it back. You can name three books right now that are at someone else's house. They've been there for years.
- No record of your collection. If something happened to your home, you couldn't tell your insurance company what books you owned.
- Apps that don't understand Chinese books. You have English and Chinese books - but most library apps fail miserably at Chinese titles and characters.
You've built a collection worth hundreds - maybe thousands - of dollars.
It deserves better than chaos.

What you actually get
Features worth $56/yr in subscriptions.
Yours for $7.99. Once.
Apps like this usually charge a monthly subscription. Home LMS doesn't — because everything lives on your device, not our servers. Here's what you'd pay elsewhere for the same features.
Less than a paperback. Saves you far more.
Comparable apps charge $1.99–$4.99/month — that's up to $56 a year, every year, for features they host on their servers. Home LMS stores everything on your device, so there's nothing to charge you for after day one.
$7.99 · One time · No subscription · No server · No risk.
Got questions?
We have answers.
Is this really a one-time purchase with no subscription?
Yes. You pay $7.99 once on Google Play and the app is yours forever. There are no monthly fees, no annual renewals and no surprise charges. Ever. All future updates are also included at no extra cost.
Does the AI Librarian cost extra?
No. The AI Librarian uses your own free Groq API key which you can get in minutes at console.groq.com - completely free, no credit card required. Groq's free tier is more than generous enough for personal library use.
Is my data private? Do you store my books anywhere?
Your data never leaves your device. Home LMS stores everything locally using an on-device database. We have no servers, no cloud sync and no access to any of your data. Your reading life is completely private.
Does it work for Chinese books?
Yes. Home LMS fully supports Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese and English - for both book details and search. It uses multiple book databases including Google Books and Open Library to find Chinese titles that other apps miss.
What if I can't scan the barcode?
No problem. You can also photograph the book cover and the app will identify it automatically using AI. Or you can upload a photo from your gallery. And if all else fails, manual entry is always available for every field.
What's new in Version 2.0?
Version 2.0 adds bulk import from Excel, manual ISBN entry, search by book title, real-time scan progress indicators, friendly error messages and dramatically faster image processing. Everyone who purchased Version 1.0 receives this update completely free.
What is the free Excel template for?
The template lets you start cataloguing your book collection right now - even before buying the app. Fill in your books in Excel or Google Sheets at your own pace. When you buy Home LMS and install it, simply import the completed file and your entire library appears instantly. No retyping, no re-entering - it just works.
I already bought Version 1.0. Do I pay again for Version 2.0?
Absolutely not. All updates to Home LMS are free forever for existing customers. Version 2.0 will appear as a standard app update on your Google Play Store - just tap Update and you have everything.
Is this available for iPhone?
Currently Home LMS is available on Android only via Google Play. An iOS version is being considered for the future based on demand.
What Android version do I need?
Home LMS requires Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or above. This covers the vast majority of Android phones made in the last 8 years.
Can I export my library?
Yes. With one tap you can export your entire book inventory to an Excel file saved on your device - perfect for insurance records, sharing with family or keeping a backup of your collection.
Version 2.0 is here.
Your library deserves this.
Same $7.99. More features than ever. No subscription. Ever.
