How the BrickDb apps work

The BrickDb app for Android, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows and Fire tablets: the same account and collection, offline, with a widget and sharing.

The app is on Google Play, in the App Store for iPhone and iPad, in the Mac App Store, in the Microsoft Store for Windows and in the Amazon Appstore for Fire tablets; the links are on our About page. Everything the website does is in the app, with the same account and the same collection. The app keeps your collection on the device, so you see your sets, minifigures and parts without a signal, and it sends what you changed offline as soon as you are connected again. It scans with your device's camera, puts a widget on your home screen, opens a set's page when you share a link from LEGO, BrickLink, Rebrickable, Brickset or Brick Owl, and opens BrickDb links straight in the app.

Does the BrickDb app work without a signal?

Yes. The app keeps your collection on the device, so you see your sets, minifigures and parts offline, and the build check keeps working. What you change offline is remembered and sent as soon as you are connected again. Signing out removes from the device what the app kept about you.

What can the app do that the website cannot?

On your home screen a widget shows how many sets you have, what your collection is worth and the best deal on your wishlist. Share a set's link from LEGO, BrickLink, Rebrickable, Brickset or Brick Owl with BrickDb and the app opens that set's page; share a photo and it offers a photo mosaic or reads the set box. A BrickDb link somebody sends you opens in the app, a long press on the app's icon offers shortcuts, and on your phone the app can tell you about price alerts by push.

Who it is for

For collectors who check their collection in a shop, at a fair or in a cellar without a signal, and who want scanning, sharing and a widget on their phone.

What you can do

• Your collection on the device, offline, with your changes sent later.
• A home-screen widget with your collection's size, its value and the best deal.
• Share a set's link or a photo with the app, and it opens the right page.

1. Get the app through the links on our About page, or search for BrickDb in your store.
2. Sign in with the account you use on the website.
3. Add the widget to your home screen and, if you like, switch on push under Notifications on your account page.
