Reviews of Bookshelf

  • A Book tracker without the ability to add bookmarks?

    After trying many booktracking apps to see which I like best, first of all I will say this one has the most beautiful and clean interface. It's really easy to navigate and use. However there is one fatal flaw which is a deal breaker for me: it's the only app I've seen which does not allow me the ability to add what page I'm currently on or where I've left off. Seeing the remaining time or percentage isn't as helpful to me. You can add how many pages you've read in a reading session, but you cannot seem to add any bookmarks and see what page you're on vs. how many pages remain, which I prefer to see over time or percentage. A rather odd oversight for a book tracker, since page numbers should be an essential feature and every single other app I looked at has this. If they are able to add it I will give it a second try, because otherwise I liked it.
  • From ReadingList to Bookshelf

    I downloaded this app out of curiosity to see how it holds up against many other apps I have tried and I have to say that it’s impressive. I was surprised to see that they even allowed you to import your reading list library, which I did. I have about 500 books and I imported them all into Bookshelf with no problem. The only issue for me was, all the imported books were categorized by Bookshelf’s category system but were instead put into “collections” which I originally created on my Readinglist account. It’s a positive that they were able to import your custom categories for sure. However I would like for there to be an option to categorize all the books I imported with Bookshelf's category feature. Because when I add a new book, whether it’s to the wishlist or to the library it automatically creates a category. That way you can keep track of which categories you read the most and so on. Please create a feature or a button that allows us to “categorize all in library” or something like that.

    Other than that this app is amazing and I can say that this will be my only book tracking app I use.
  • Just almost there..

    I was looking for an app to track my reading more closely and this was definitely the standout from all the options I tried. The only issue is that I wish there was another way to track my reading than through the timer. If I could just have the option to manually enter the page or chapter I was on in the books I was working through this would be so ideal. I showed this to my sister and she thought it would be perfect for her kids to help her get them into reading time and track how fast their reading skills are developing. The timer seems much more well suited to set regimented reading schedules than my habit of casually moving through a book in my spare moments throughout the day. If I could just log the total pages at the end before I go to bed this app would be perfect for me.
