GR sync not working
I really wanted to like this app and switch from good reads but syncing doesn’t seem to workBrunoSchultz
Importing problems
I mostly use storygraph so i only go into the app every few months. I had imported from both storygraph and goodreads before. When i tried again last week i would only have the option to go from good reads but it wasnt doing anything. I would get the notification that the import started but when clicked it says 0 of of 0 books. Storygraph had some missing books and i only got the option to import when i deleted my library. So i did the steps and exported and uploaded the export and waited for the import to finish thinking it just might take a bit. Its been 5 days and its still loading. Goodreads import button is still doing the same thing which is nothing.
I submitted two reports and have received nothing yet.VickiT82430
Too annoying to use
The first app I’ve ever deleted bc the UX was so frustrating. For example, if you add a book you recently read, mark it as read, and add the dates you read it, it will list the book as Currently Reading. Then if you try to update it to Finished, it registers that as you having read the book for a second time. Makes no sense!irish_werequail92
better ux than goodreads
Better ux than goodreads! But I can’t import my library from goodreads :-(-/:;(?&?
Needs work
I have been using this app on and off for over a year now. I like the design and overall concept of the app. But, it has a lot of room
for improvement. I regularly encounter book pages with missing information (no cover, no synopsis, no author bio), as well as no book pages at all (including award winning books, nominated books, etc). I filled out a form months ago to become a “librarian” to help fill in missing data and what not, but never heard back. And today I spent a few minutes writing out a review for a book but after tapping save, i found that it did not save and no draft is available, so that review is now lost. I started using this app because a friend recommended it and because i wanted to divest from Amazon related alternatives. I hope this app will show signs of improvement soon. i’ve enjoyed using it besides the issues noted above.同平安
Very laggy
I know this app is new and the creators are working on it, but it is laggy. I tried changing my email address and username and it didn’t let me. I had deleted my email address and needed to change it to a new one. Honestly, there wasn’t much to do on this app. It’s kinda boring. I just ended up deleting my account and the app.
The idea is actually a good one but the app just isn’t there yet.angelmarie1967
Quite a fun app, could use a minor tweak!
Love this as an alternative for good reads, much nicer on the eyes and easy to use, in general. The yearly goal list, is not updating automatically for me, perhaps it’s a bug?bellera
great
Great idea, great app. Low budget (updates every 2 months…), so expect a few UX inconsistencies. I wish I could add personal notes to a book I’m adding (who told me about it / offered it to me etc). And that adding new books was a bit easier (auto retrieving data from worldcat?). There are also lots of duplicate titles in the database, not a big deal now but I’m concerned app may become slow or annoying (having to scroll through duplicates) because of it. For the positives : it’s simple, clear, easy to use. It doesn’t try to push a bunch of garbage on me (ads/sponsored content/recommendations) and is not riddled with useless featuresVirginioM
ISBN & Edition Issues
I enjoy the app, especially the social aspects, but I’m repeatedly frustrated at the inconsistencies with tracking book editions and ISBNs. When adding a book, you can edit the dates read, but then the app will sometimes change the version of the book. I’m often brought to books with blank cover squares and no descriptions. I hope this can get fixed! The staff members are great about responding to issue emails.booktracker
Need a Yearly Goal
Love this app already! The design is so much better and more modern than Goodreads. I love the scanning feature for quotes. The only thing I wish it had was reading goals like Goodreads does.Kathym14
