  • Great Book Tracking App

    I absolutely love this app! I love seeing all the books I’ve read this year in bookshelf format. I look forward to seeing more features added.
  • Seems like a good start

    Just downloaded the app. I love the goal page. Seems like a good start to the app. 5 or 6 books I read aren’t available. So hopefully they start to add more books to their catalog. Most of them not found are indie authors. Would be awesome to include fanfiction. I like the tracking options but won’t pay for that feature.

  • Great but needs a little more love

    Amazing app love the concept of it. I love the aesthetic of the whole thing. Specially love the rating and annotations. A few things I would either update or add.

    When books are entered adding a Kids, YA or Adult genre on them.

    Book spice rating 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

    A better search feature. Currently its very difficult to find the book you are looking for. A lot of people seem to be adding their own name as the author and not the book author, so searching by author doesnt work too well.

    When you search something, it seems to pull up anything that has any letters that are used.

    When you look up a book in a series having an option to view all the books in the series. (This would be easier to add a whole series to read or your tbr)

    Would be nice to add friends and view their tbr/read books or profile.

    Overall I will keep using this app as ai find it more visually appealing then others and I cant wait to see where it goes.

  • 4 1/2 Stars! I loooooove this app!

    I had the free version of this app for a couple of days and immediately subscribed for the extra paid features because I am loving the app! There are SO many options for adding information about the books you’re reading — way more than other apps I’ve used.

    The only thing I’d love to see be updated is when adding newly read books to your reading goal shelf for this year, the books going to the bottom / end of the shelf (I hope that makes sense). I input all of my read books from the start of the year to now but had to do it backwards (Oct—>Jan) so that the books I read first this year were at the top, but NOW when I add a new book it goes right in front of what should be #1 on my shelf… which makes it seem like I read it early this year instead of being #55 like it should be… ya know?? (I really hope this makes sense) lol!!

    Another feature I’d love is an option to mark off what version(s) of the book you own because sometimes I have a kindle AND physical copy, or audio AND physical copy… because yes, I have issues lol

    Anyway. This is just me looking for things that could be improved because other than those things, I am so pleased with this app!! 🤗📚

  • I like it but needs some improvement

    My favorite thing about this app is the reading challenge. I was previously using goodreads to track my yearly challenge but this is so much cuter and the rating system is a lot better. I love how it shows you your bookshelf and how many more you need.
    My main issue with this app right now is the database, I have had to manually input 90% of the books I read which can be really frustrating and time consuming because I have to find the title, author and a cover photo before it lets me submit it. I wish that books other people manually add would be added to the database for everyone, right now it is extremely limited. However you can add any books you need it just takes a long time.
    I also think a social aspect would be nice, having friends or seeing other reviews.
    Overall I am happy with this app and love supporting a smaller company. You can tell the creators are readers themselves. Just improving the database would make a huge difference!

  • Not impressed

    I just got this and started searching for books to add to my TBR. At first they were there, but after the first few, I stopped finding either TBR books or ones I had read. And they are popular books. I see in settings you can manually add books but I thought that this would be easier to use.
  • Absolutely love this app

    This is one of the best apps ever. Putting in books manually is amazing for when I can’t find one, and saving and rating them all makes me feel so accomplished ! My only problem, which isn’t even really a problem, is I wish there was a social aspect. I want to send book recs to my friends and see what they are reading and what they rate books! Being able to interact with book lovers would be a great social aspect that I think everyone would benefit from!! But other than that, amazing app ❤️

  • Ravishing

    I absolutely love this app. The ability to create a TBR book shelf is amazing. I think the thing I’m missing is being about to see how others feel about the book I’m reading. I don’t mind paying for the rating system though it’s a little much but you know someone took time to develop this app so I’m okay with it. I think I’ll be promoting this app a little more than I do Goodreads. It’s worth it.

  • Good enough

    I have just gotten the app and so far it seems great! The system seems nice, but the app design could use some work. From the app icon you come under the impression that it will be all aesthetically pleasing, warm brown tones, but then you click on and its just basic dark grey and white dark mode. Expected better.
    Also, it could be quite nice if the developers could add a browsing or maybe a recommended section? Where based off previous genres and how the user rated them, the app could suggest similar books the user might enjoy. Just thought it’d be cool.
    Overall, not bad, but could be better. :)

  • Great concept- buggy

    I love the concept! I need this to sort the ever growing TBR of mine. I didn’t bat an eye while getting the pro features. I went to view a book I marked as currently reading, and it would just exit the app repeatedly everytime I tried to do anything with a “currently reading” book. Love the rating system in the different genres. As well as a brain dump area for thoughts on the book that isn’t a review, BRILLIANT! I only ask they fix a few bugs and then this is perfect!
