Great to see.
Is there any way to bulk add books to collections?
Is there a way to remove showing the pink series/tags from grid view?

Hello Richard.
1. No bulk adding now, but as I understand you would expect it to be there. OK, going to the to-do list.
2. So you do not want to see series and tags in grid view? Is that right?

I love your speedy response!
It would be good to have the option of removing these details if not wanted. Just the cover image and book title.
Thanks

Will look into this, but even now I think the app has too much options, so I will play with some ideas, how to do this. Technically it is not problem, but I do not want to clutter the app with "millions of options" for everything. But I will figure it out and it will be there.
