Hate this app with a passion
I tried this app a few years ago and now remember why I never used it. After two hours of uploading my library onto my iPad I tried to sync to my phone (which I have to sign up the premium to do). Deleted all previous data and backups and it still somehow manages to upload my library from 5 years ago onto my phone and also create duplicates of every single book on my iPad. I have tried every way to get this to work but for the sake of my mental health I’m going to cut my losses on the time wasted today and try literally any other app

The best book tracking app EVER.
I have tried sooo many book tracking apps to catalogue my collection but have never managed to get past logging the first 10/20 books because of clunky UI, bad formatting etc. I have just finished entering my entire 900+ book collection on to this app and it has been a dream.
This app is everything I have ever wanted from a book tracking app. It is beautifully designed, so easy to use, the organisation features are great so I can keep all my series together. My favourite feature is the wishlist. I love that I can have a separate little library of books I want, and then if I buy that book I can move it over to my main collection with a few taps.
My only criticism would be I wish there was a way to manually organise the order of books in your library. Despite changing the author’s name etc. in the settings, I still sometimes have a few rogue books that get mixed up and don’t stay in order. But that is such a small issue and really does not take away from this being a truly wonderful creation. I would recommend this to anyone ◡̈

Wow!!! I recommand
Best app ever, I love the fact that you can pay a forever membership… it’s a little bit expansive (around 60$ I think), but I use this app every day of my life, since more than a year. I love absolutly everything about this app, and I love even more that the developper is listenning the critics and correct his app.
I do not regret the switch that I made (from Leio to Bookshelf)
P.s.: english is not my fist language, I tried my best hahah

Only three reading sessions a week?!?!?!
You only get 3 reading sessions a week!!!! What that is so unfair and the price to pay for gold is kinda crazy. The app itself is actually pretty great but please let us have more then three reading sessions a week please
The best app of its kind!
I switched over to this from Goodreads and am so happy I found it. Its beautifully designed UI puts other similar apps to shame. With some AI sprinkled in too, cutting edge!
I love the live activities and tracking feature, which I use as a virtual bookmark and also an estimation of my reading speed. The Home Screen widgets are nice too, since I’m juggling a few books at a time, I can see up to four of them in a row which is beautiful. This helps support my reading habit and helps to reach my yearly goals!
I really hope the app keeps evolving, to eventually add more community features and integration with apps like Readwise/Notion for cards/highlights.

Would benefit from minor UX improvements
I love your app, it’s probably the best out of three apps to track my reading that I use. But the UX for changing the dates read was challenging to find. It’s too many layers (taps) deep, and I think it wasn’t this way before a recent update.
An amazing app designed for book lovers
This has been the most helpful and useful app that I have ever come across as a book lover. I really appreciate all the ways you can organise your library, even down to whether the book is an ebook or paperback, or if it’s borrowed or owned. This app also helps me with keeping track of my thoughts about a book or an author as someone who has never been consistent enough with a book journal. The AI feature is also super cool. I am very picky when it comes to picking which books/authors I pick up, but with the personalised recommendations, I feel I have actually expanded my collection as I now consider titles that I never would have before. All around I genuinely love this app. I almost get excited to add new books onto my library. I have even gotten my mother (also a massive bookworm) to download it so that we can compare stats. 11/10 - I can’t recommend this app enough.

Fab tracking app but latest update has issues
Really great book tracking app. Love seeing how long left I have in the book and how my reading speed varies across genres and authors.
Latest update however has made the app unusable. Loved the addition of non timed sessions but now this seems to have disappeared. Also cannot use timed session or adjust pages read at all.
Hopefully this can be fixed soon as I was really loving using and want to continue to track the book I’m currently reading.

Not bad.
This app helped me read more and reach some of my reading goals. I do wish that the payment for premium version was a one time purchase, instead of monthly. I would of bought the premium version if it was a one time payment. So maybe you guys could make it more available in that way. Thank you :)
Worth the download
I’ve got a few of these apps and some are better than others.
I’m really liking this one as I sat scanning a ton of books and only had a few that weren’t being found. Not too much of an issue as I can add manually. (Maybe next update it’ll work?)
The only negative I have is the app doesn’t recognise when I have more than one book by the same author. On the next update is there any chance this feature can be added? Would make life a lot easier, specially for those of us who are book crazy.
