Unusable

I really liked the idea of this app, but the broken UI makes it unusable. It’s impossible to login on my phone, and the iPad app cuts off half of what’s on screen. I really wish it worked :(

Amazing App

I love the variety of books and I’m finding so many great book recommendations!! I highly recommend this app, it has so many great stats as well. Very organized and easy to navigate.

Thanks for the feedback Madi, we’re glad you’re enjoying it. We’ll keep working hard to bring you new features and improvements - happy reading!

Genre options pointless

I wanted to try to find more books like ones I’ve read using a swiping system for ease of use. However I’ve noticed that i still get a lot of genres I’ve not selected and the options aren’t very up to par with my taste yet but will keep trying

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the feedback. We do our best to recommend quality books from our users' preferred genres, but we're learning that even within genres, there is enormous variety in tastes. We are constantly working on our recommendation algorithm to improve on this. For many of our books, we have curated a "More like this" section, so you could also try searching for books you have loved and scrolling down in the book details page to see other books that are similar to it. Hope that gives you some joy!

Bookist App

Bookist is my book finding and keeping assistant. Love storing what I’ve read.

Tinder but for books

Firstly I love to swipe so appreciate the layout. Also have met many books that I would not have come across otherwise. Now I have a specially curated ‘to read’ library for my vast number of tastes. This app makes the search for finding a good book so much easier!
