Adding by barcode

When you are cataloging your boxes of comics, the best way to add comics to CLZ Comics is by scanning their barcodes with your device’s camera. You can add multiple comic books in one go.

This feature makes that you don’t have to search everything by series or issue name. It makes it easy to get your comic collection in fast.

Example: You have a lot of comic books and adding everything by searching it up is taking a lot of time. Easily scan the barcode and add multiple comics in one go!

As the barcode is often on the front, this is an excellent solution to adding your comics.

Next time you want to use CLZ Barry, you don’t have to go through those steps again. Just open the Add Comics screen in Comic Connect and start scanning barcodes!

*TIP: Devices that do not have an autofocus camera can have difficulty scanning. If you are unable to get a good scan, make sure you are in a well-lit area.
