## What is Biblio.ink?

Your unified library in 3D, your physical books and ebooks live together. Drop in an EPUB or PDF and watch it become a hardcover you can pick up, browse, and read.

Biblio turns a folder of files into a library you actually want to visit.

Every book stands on a real 3D shelf, spine, cover, and page edges you can reach in and pick up, turn over, and start reading. A pile of downloads becomes a collection you browse the way you browse a bookshelf at home.

One library, every kind of book
Your ebooks and your physical books live side by side. Scan a barcode, photograph a whole shelf at once, search by title or author, or add a book by hand. However it arrives, it stands on the same shelf.

See your collection, your way
• Shelf: your whole library on beautiful 3D shelves; pinch to see every book at once
• Cascade: flip through your books like flipping through records
• Map: Your library on a world map: books pin to the places they're about, and tapping a place fans out its covers. Pan, zoom, and switch between Map and Constellation in the Graph view.
• Constellation: a quiet map of how your books connect to one another
• List: search, sort, and organize in a tap

A reader that gets out of the way
Clean typography, smooth page turns, and a layout built for long reading. PDFs support markup with Apple Pencil. Your place is always saved.

Share a shelf with anyone
Publish a shelf to your own page at biblio.ink and send the link to a friend — no account required to view.

Yours, and private
Biblio is local-first: your library lives on your device. Turn on iCloud to keep it in sync across iPhone, iPad, and the web, privately.

Biblio is for people who love books — not just reading them, but keeping them, arranging them, and coming back to them.

### 5/5 — An underradar app that beats the big names

*2026-10-22*

I agree with the comment here that this is the best Library software even it’s relatively new one. It’s free to try,  so try it, you won’t regret it. Hive five to the dev team, they are friendly and quick response.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your kind words and support. We will deliver more in the near future. Stay tuned.

### 5/5 — Impressive

*2026-10-21*

This app is just beautifully done. The design is clean and polished, everything runs smoothly, and it has a surprising amount of useful features without feeling cluttered or complicated. It feels like a lot of thought went into the overall experience.

What I like most is that it actually makes me want to read more. Opening the app and seeing my books feels enjoyable instead of like I’m just looking at another library or tracker. Easily one of the nicest reading apps I’ve used.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this. "It makes me want to read more" is the best thing anyone could say about Biblio. That's the whole reason it exists: your books should feel like something you live with, not a list to manage.

There's a lot under the hood, so I'm glad it still feels simple to you. That balance takes the most care, and it's good to hear it comes through.

If you enjoy reading the news as well, Biblio Times is our daily paper, made with the same care. Its front page is folded like a real newspaper.

Biblio is still growing, with new updates every week or two. If you ever miss something, or something feels off, I'd love to hear from you.

Happy reading,
Weera

### 5/5 — Best library program out there

*2026-10-04*

This is by far the most elegant solution for organizing electronic books and texts that I have seen so far. I am sure that it will continue to evolve over time, but right now, it is already a pleasure to use.  Apple Ibooks is also an excellent program, but it has become so overwhelmed  with advertising pitches, that it is almost impossible to navigate.  This is one case in which a subscription is worth the money since it allows you to keep a fairly extensive library on the Biblio server and download books as needed, rather than cluttering the memory on our iPhone or iPad.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this review. You are the one who understands our app, its functionality, value, and the target we tried to put into it. 

After 3 months of release, this app is still unknown. 

We have a positive feeling that there will be more customers like you around the world to help us do what we are trying to do. 

We are so lucky that you found us.

### 5/5 — Excellent program.

*2026-10-02*

Still evolving, but already better than any5hing else out there. The subscription is worth it simply to have books backed up on the company’s cloud.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words and you are the very first one that trusts in us with a subscription. 

That means a lot to us. 

Keeping your library safe is exactly why cloud backup is at the heart of the subscription, and there's plenty more coming. If you have ideas, I'd love to hear them at hello@agenti.nz - PHz

### 5/5 — Almost perfect

*2026-09-16*

This app fits almost exactly what I’ve been looking for - I can display all of my books digitally (and beautifully) on a shelf. The mapping feature is great and had never occurred to me. 

The one thing I really wish it had was to sort a shelf by most recently read and A-Z by author last name. 

Then just a note, I did a Goodreads/storygraph import and every single book came over as non-fiction, so I had to manually correct that.

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thanks for the nice review and recommendation. 

We are working on sorting you are asking for and the bug about non-fiction. It should be released in 1.10.2 this week. 👌

Update: 1.10.2 is live now.

### 5/5 — Feature request: Kavita integration / web folder support?

*2026-07-27*

Love the app! I have thousands of books already organized with notes. Is there any plan to support linking a web-based folder with features like reading progress analysis? (For reference, I currently use Absorb for my Audiobookshelf Docker setup.)

**Developer response:** Update: We now have OPDS support in 1.6 Mac and iOS, you can import your Kavita book into the app now.

Thank you and this is a good question.

Biblio isn't a reader and won't become a client for a server, so it won't stream from Kavita or take over progress tracking. What it should do is let you bring a large existing library in at once rather than book by book. OPDS is the obvious way in, and it would cover Komga and Calibre-Web at the same time. It's not built yet, but it's the request I've thought hardest about since launch.

If you'd write to me at hello@biblio.ink I'd like to hear how your library is structured, a thousands-of-books catalogue is exactly the case I can't test against on my own.

### 5/5 — So beautiful

*2026-07-06*

I’ve been waiting for app like this since Delicious Library.

### 5/5 — Smooth and enjoyable

*2026-07-03*

Clean design, well put together, and very easy to use. The interface is lovely and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Dear Yoky,

Thanks for the encouragement. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.12.6 — 2026-11-09

A smoother 3D shelf, most of all on screens that show 60 frames a second, like the iPad mini.

• The shelf moves with your finger instead of a book at a time. Flick it and it carries on, then slows to a stop.
• The cascade does the same. Tap an arrow while it is still moving and it stops there and steps.
• Books coming into view no longer hold the shelf up, so it no longer stutters as it passes them.
• In the Four Seasons room, the street walks along with you.
• In the Four Seasons room, the season slider is now a small dial in the corner. Turn it to change the season, tap it to come back to today.

### 1.12.5 — 2026-11-07

Share Premium with your family, and highlights that follow you between devices.

• With Premium, invite up to four people from Settings, under Family. Each of you keeps your own account and library, you share the cloud storage, and the Family shelf holds the books you all share. Family is new: the last line of the Family page is where to tell us what's missing.
• Highlights, notes and bookmarks sync between iPhone, iPad and Mac, with Biblio Cloud or iCloud. With Biblio Cloud they reach biblio.ink too.
• Tapping a highlight opens it, and Add Note opens the highlight you just made.
• Holding a selection while you switch apps or turn the device no longer leaves the page between two pages.
• Search, translation and the reading clock are steadier, and a protected book says why it can't open instead of showing a blank page.
• What readers say, at the top of What's New, shows reviews from other readers and a way to rate Biblio.

### 1.12.4 — 2026-11-06

New covers for seven demo books, and a way to bring deleted ones back.

• In Settings, under Shelf, choose Use the new covers. Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, Dorian Gray, Jekyll and Hyde, Dracula, Sherlock Holmes and The Count of Monte Cristo change to a redrawn cover with a matching spine and back. The choice appears if your library was set up before these covers arrived.
• A cover, spine or back you changed yourself stays as it is. Go back to the old covers, in the same place, undoes the change.
• If you deleted a demo book, choose Bring back the demo books under Shelf. It returns to your shelf, on its new cover if there is one.
• Biblio Times and Atelier now stand on the Main shelf only.
• If Low Power Mode changes while Biblio is in the background, the shelf waits until you come back to update.

### 1.12.3 — 2026-11-03

Split or crop a cover, and the Shelf widget shows your shelf again.

• Some PDFs carry the whole jacket on one page: back, spine and front. Open the book in Designer and choose Split full cover, drag the lines to the folds and trim, then tap Split. Nothing is cut until you do. Hold the book while you split it and the jacket folds around it.
• If the file marks where its covers sit, the lines start in the right place and the book takes its real height and thickness. A wide picture chosen as a cover can be split too, or kept as one picture.
• Crop cover, also in Designer, trims white margins or bleed from a cover. It suggests where the edges are, and you can move them. A PDF that marks its trim is cut when you import it.
• The Shelf widget could go blank at its largest size on iPhone Duo, or show a drawn shelf instead of yours on iPhone. Fixed. Open Biblio once after updating and your shelf comes back.
• In an EPUB, pictures with a white background now blend into the page on Cream and Light, as they already did on Sepia.
• A cover replaced on another device that failed to download is tried again, and lists and grids show a new cover when it arrives.
• Fixed a case where a book could reopen on a different page from the one you left.

### 1.12.2 — 2026-11-02

Biblio Times and Atelier stand on the shelf, read a book in another language, and sharp type in scanned PDFs.

• At the left end of the shelf, ahead of the books, a folded Biblio Times stands on its crease and an Atelier folio holds its prints. Pick one up like a book: the paper unfolds, the prints rise out of the pocket. Tap the one in your hand to open the app. With Biblio Times on this iPhone or iPad, the paper prints the front page of this morning's edition, and its inside pages carry Biblio's What's New. To keep the shelf to books, turn them off in Settings, under Shelf.
• In an EPUB, open the reader settings and choose Side by Side or Translation Only under Translation. Each chapter is translated on your device as you reach it and kept, so turning back is instant. Side by Side puts the translation under each paragraph. Biblio remembers the choice for each book, and the language you choose holds for every book.
• In a scanned PDF, turn on Clear Text in the reader settings and each line of type is drawn again, sharp, where it was printed, in letters like the book's own. To choose for yourself, pick Serif or Sans Serif under Letters. Lettering in a picture, and a line Biblio can't read with confidence, stays as the scan shows it.
• In a room, the details of the book you pick up sit on glass, so they stay easy to read against the wood or the street outside.
• On iPhone Duo, a book you pick up in cascade rests on the left page, and the Info panel takes half the screen.
• Contents shows the page each chapter starts on, and where you are as "Page 121 of 824". On iPad and Mac, Contents and Search line up evenly inside their panel.
• On iPhone Duo, switching to another app and back keeps you on the page you were reading.
• A highlight now has Go to page, and its panel sits evenly inside its edges.
• In the reader, the title and the close button sit further in from the edges, so they no longer crowd the corner.
• If you bought Library, Four seasons comes with it.
