  • Request

    Can you add a DM function in app for requesting to join a book club? Default is for the app to open all mail apps on the device to send an email to someone, presumably the organizer. I haven’t received a response but I am very confused why this request isn’t facilitated via the app. There are many points of failure with emails in this scenario, and reduces users on your platform.

    Thanks

  • Love it!

    Great app. User friendly with all the features needed for a book club including chat where you can include attachments, polls and a search for books. It’s so wonderful to see a list of books read and put our ratings as well as keep a list of books we want to read. The monthly newsletters and book recommendations are helpful too:)

  • Just What I Was Looking For…

    This app is perfect for what I needed. I had an idea for a Book Club, but didn’t want to have to develop a platform. I just knew there was something out there already. This is it! It is user-friendly, practical and has great features. I love the way you can share notifications with club members. I highly recommend this app.

    Thanks Kashi, glad to hear you're enjoying the app!
  • No more never ending email threads!

    Thank you Bookclubs for freeing me and my bookclubbers from endless email threads and Google sheets. So easy to manage rsvps, send announcements etc without spamming everyone.
  • Updated -

    Developer has added suggested feature. Much better! Thanks for the fix.

    So my book club uses this app. There are many features I like, but this most recent update has no way of marking messages as read without clicking on them. So I have around 200 unread notifications. I’m not about to go back and read all these notifications (that I’m sure I’ve already seen) just to get this number to go away. Any chance you can add a mark all as seen button? Or something similar? It’s really frustrating seeing this on my phone screen now. As far as the rest of the app, the polling and messaging are great. The addition of direct messages has been nice though my group doesn’t use that much.

    Hi, let me help you out with all those unread messages! If you go to the notifications page, you'll see three dots that you can click on or the words "Mark all notifications as read" to clear your notifications. If you have any questions about this, please send us a message at help@bookclubs.com.
  • Great!

    A really great way of connecting and communicating with friends and fellow readers. Much easier to have discussions and pick books and dates that work for everyone than using a standard social media platform or text accounts.
  • Best Bookclub App Out There!

    I have been using the app for a few months and it is super user-friendly! For being free and only donation based, I appreciate every thoughtful detail that went into building this. It is exactly the app and book community I was looking for! I have already joined two books clubs and I am looking forward to meeting with them virtually soon.

  • Useful but lots of Flaws

    This App has a lot of potential but still too simplistic. Needs better way for Members to easily communicate within the App; to manage RSVPs with ability to include a comment w/response. Spond still more intutive and laid out more efficiently. Advantage of this is can add books. Keeps improving this! Thanks.

  • Love this app!

    Great way to collaborate with fellow book worms! Our group has expanded to nearly 10 people and we all live in different states or time zones. This app allows us to set polls to choose the next book to read, set up meetings to discuss each book we read, and it keeps us all engaged and interested! Such a user friendly app, 10/10!

  • Perfect for our book club!

    This app is perfect for our community book club. You don’t need anything special, just this app. I love it. The people that run this app are so helpful, they are always there to answer any question you might have. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
