### 5/5 — Great support

*2023-09-27*

I don’t usually write reviews but after using book habit for a few years, one day it was acting glitchy and I emailed support. They got back to me right away. I was super impressed. The problem was with my phone and not the app and it’s working perfectly again. I really like BookHabit. Couldn’t be happier.

### 5/5 — The best reading and library app

*2023-05-10*

Don’t be fooled by the humble aesthetic - this app is packed with features!

### 5/5 — Great features and privacy

*2022-01-09*

I was glad to find an app that keeps all you notes on the device by default.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-11-05*

I’ve had this app for years, since my iPod Touch days. I’ve most of my library on it and keep track of what I’m reading and where and later on how much I’ve read and when. I’ve added magazines to the app when I had multiple on the go at once. I use it for reference of what I’ve read of an author, and which ones I own. It’s available offline so no need for internet when in the depths of a library or bookshop. 
Haven’t used it as much recently since I’ve had a second child.

### 5/5 — Pastor

*2018-10-24*

Grateful to have this apps, thanks so much. I loved!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — Needs Integration

*2018-02-16*

This is a decent app, especially the visualizations. However, it cannot compete with Goodreads for social sharing. If they utilized the Goodreads API to sync shelves and progress, I would use this app happily and it would easily be 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Too many books too little time

*2017-04-20*

This app is perfect for keeping track of your books. I love the list feature, I no longer have to send myself memos of books I want to read!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2017-03-20*

Still discovering the full functionality of this application and look forward to learning everything it is capable of.  If you read - this is a must have!

### 5/5 — Excellent app to keep track of reading, notes and more!

*2017-01-29*

Great app! It helps me take and keep track of my notes. I love that they're easily accessible on the road when looking up quotes or info for a presentation and for my book club. 

Helps me keep on pace for what I'm reading, and not forget about books I had to put down. Gives me a beautiful view of my library and what I'm reading. 

I especially like that it asks me to rate the book as i read it instead of at the end - it's giving me a more honest/true rating of the book. 

Haven't yet used it the built in bibliography/citation exporter. But nice feauture - would have been nice to have that back in grad school.

### 5/5 — Great app for book lovers!

*2017-01-27*

Highly recommended. I've used this app for years and I'm thrilled that it's been updated for iOS 10-thanks, HyperJeff! Social apps for books are all fine & dandy-I use them-but BookHabit is the best if you just want to track your own personal reading, keep a personal book journal and read more!  You can customize your lists and keep running notes as you read (you can share your notes if you wish). The graphs are the best!  
If you love to read, get this app!
