Bulk Edit allows you to update multiple books in your library at the same time.

This is especially useful if you’ve just imported a large collection or want to make consistent changes across many books (e.g., add a tag, change format, update location).

How to access Bulk Edit

1. Open Book Tracker.
2. From the Library (or any list of books), tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Select Books.
4. Tap the books you want to edit to mark them.
5. Once selected, tap the three-dot button in the bottom-right corner to open the Bulk Edit options.

Bulk Edit options

You can Assign or Replace different fields like:

• Series → add selected books to a series.
• Tags → apply one or more tags.
• Authors → apply one or more authors.
• Position → set Location, Bookcase, or Shelf.
• Format → update to Paperback, Hardcover, eBook, Audiobook, etc.
• Reading Status → mark as To Read, Reading, Read, or Abandoned.
• Delete → remove all selected books at once.

⚠️ Bulk Edit is designed for group changes. You cannot edit unique fields like title or description in bulk.

Best practices

• Use Bulk Edit right after importing to quickly categorize your books.
• The Replace option overwrites existing data (e.g., tags or positions), while Assign adds without removing what’s already there — choose carefully.
• Always review your selections before applying changes.

✅ Bulk Edit helps you organize large libraries quickly and consistently, saving you time and effort.
