Records cabinet - why every music collectors app should have it Record Scanner helps you catalog and manage your beloved library quickly. But if you know us – you already know we’re a bit more ambitious than that, and we want to do more than just list your albums. So today, let’s look at a feature that literally changes the way you see your music collection: the "Cabinet"!

What is the Cabinet? Imagine you can replicate your physical records cabinet right inside your mobile app. The Cabinet feature in Record Scanner does exactly that. It transforms your music catalog into a clean, two-dimensional grid of shelves. This design looks just like your real furniture and makes management simple and satisfying. Beyond Organization The Cabinet doesn't just organize, it informs you too. With it you can easily check the approximate record price and total value for your whole cabinet or just individual shelves. This is a powerful tool to track your record value stats. It is perfect for insurance needs or just checking what your library is worth.

Where is ‘that’ album? With the Cabinet feature, you can find the exact spot of a specific record on a shelf. The app highlights it for you. This works for searching and filtering too. Filter by genre, and the app lights up the specific shelves with those albums. It is a quick and efficient way to navigate your collection.

Customization and Visual Appeal Each shelf within your Cabinet can be customized and named, showing exactly how many records it holds. This feels much more natural than standard folders because it mirrors your physical vinyl setup. Want to rearrange your collection? The position of each shelf can be easily moved or swapped with others, allowing for endless customization.
