### 5/5 — Loving this App

*2026-08-19*

Just what I was looking for! Wanted to track/define words in the book I am reading and this has been working well. Only issue is when I’m on my specific book and add a vocab word it won’t show up under that book. It does show up in the vocabulary tab though.

### 5/5 — Parfait correspond à mes attentes !

*2026-08-11*

J’apprécie énormément cette application ! Je cherchais depuis longtemps une application complète pour pouvoir noter et suivre mes lectures, et c’est exactement ce qu’il me fallait. J’aurais encore plus apprécié l’application s’il était possible d’avoir des recommandations de livres personnalisées en fonction de nos préférences, un classement des livres les plus populaires du moment, ou même un réseau social permettant d’ajouter nos amis, de voir leurs lectures et de partager nos avis. S’il vous plaît, ajoutez ces fonctionnalités dans une prochaine mise à jour, ce serait vraiment génial et rendrait l’application encore plus complète ! En tout cas, je recommande cette application à 100 %.

### 5/5 — the best book tracking app out there

*2026-05-15*

i've tried plenty. between ads, overstimulation and paywalls this is the absolute best option you have as an apple user. big thanks to the devs.

### 5/5 — Super !!!

*2026-05-10*

Bravo pour le travail : appli géniale !!!👏👏👏

### 5/5 — Import csv

*2026-05-09*

Update:
Importing the BookBuddy and Calibre file is not recognized, and the preview does not display. BookBuddy has over 3,000 books, while Calibre has more than 50,000 books.

Previous comments :
Hope to support the import of CSV files exported from the Calibre ebook management software, and that the corresponding title, author, tag, ISBN, formats, comments, publisher, and other relevant information can be imported.  

The relevant information of imported or manually entered books is incomplete. Whether the function can be added to update the book metadata information in the RLT in batches online.

**Developer response:** Greetings dear reader,

Thank you for your review!
I appreciate your csv import suggestion. Would you mind sharing a sample of your csv so that I can use it as a basis for development? You can send an email from the app (Settings tab). 

Wishing you a great reading session,
Jerome

### 5/5 — Enfin une appli où je peux écrire des notes

*2026-04-30*

Facile d’utilisation. Je peux laisser des notes personnelles et des citations pour chaque livre. Pas d’obligation de partager mes notes comme sur d’autres applications.

### 4/5 — Good but needs work

*2025-12-25, version 10.0.0*

I would like for a way to get the online information to my books that’s in my library without having to re-search for the books to put the  missing information in. Also if there’s a way to put bought books in a permanent place.

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2025-12-21*

As I’ve grown older, I’ve realized that the way I read books has changed. I no longer solely care about my reading progress. I’ve come to learn to gain knowledge and or desire to have a deeper understanding of what I’m reading whether fiction or non-fiction. In order to ensure that I’m absorbing everything that I’m reading I’ve taken up annotating my books. However, I can’t bring myself to actually mark up my books and that’s why I love Bookopedia! I can annotate, take notes, type out any new vocabulary that I picked up from the books I’m reading, I can import/export my books across devices and from other apps, I can create flashcards from the vocabulary I’ve recorded in the app and so many other awesome features! I love that this app’s UI isn’t overwhelming either. This app is wonderful for anyone who finds the current apps on the market too focused on useless statistics and flashy. If you’re also looking for an app that isn’t heavily restricted behind a paywall, Bookopedia is also for you!

**Developer response:** Dear Knee_nah,
Thank you very much for your incredible review! It truly makes me happy and confirms my decision to offer a book app that prioritizes knowledge over rewards and achievements.
I will continue to improve Bookopedia in the same direction (the next update is focused on characters).

Happy New Year!
Jerome

### 5/5 — Le meilleur de l’Apple Store

*2025-11-05*

Cette application est vraiment extraordinaire, on sent qu’elle est faite avec soin et le créateur est très réactif aux commentaires, ce qui est vraiment appréciable. Un petit rafraîchissement au niveau du look de l’application et de l’icône pour faire plus « moderne » serait bienvenue mais déjà c’est parfait.

### 4/5 — Bitte Sortierung nach Autor in der Übersicht

*2025-06-06*

Super App. Mir fehlt das die Bücher nicht nach Autor sortiert werden können in der Übersicht. Das Design könnte etwas moderner sein. Toll finde ich das die Bücher schnell gefunden werden und die Möglichkeit ein zufälliges Buch auswählen zu lassen , Notizen und Zitate zu machen.

**Developer response:** Hallo helenaoftroja,
vielen Dank für dein nettes Feedback! Die Sortierung nach Autor ist eine tolle Idee - ich werde sie auf jeden Fall in Betracht ziehen. Ich freue mich, dass dir die App gefällt, und hoffe, dass du auch weiterhin viel Freude daran hast.

Viele Grüße,
Jerome

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 12.1.0 — 2026-08-08

Dear Bookopedians,

This update is all about the online book search: more sources, more results, and fewer errors. Here are the details:

- Books From More Sources
Searching by title now combines several book databases at once and merges their results, helping you find more books, including regional editions. The list also keeps loading more results as you scroll.

- An Even More Reliable Search
We kept hardening the online search: it now retries on its own and falls back to another source when one is unavailable. Loading indicators in the book and cover search screens were also polished along the way.

As tradition goes, you can expect a few additional fixes and UX improvements.

Happy reading!

### 12.0.0 — 2026-07-26

Dear Bookopedians,

This update adds a new Stats hub with reading goals, makes searching for books online more reliable, and lets you scan ISBNs while offline. Here are the details:

- A New Stats Hub
Bookopedia now has a dedicated section for your reading stats. You can see how many books you finish over the year, along with how your library breaks down by publication era, genre, author, format and rating.

- Reading Goals
You can now set a reading goal for the year and follow your progress as you go.

- More Reliable Book Search
Several of you reported errors when searching for a book online. This is now fixed, so adding books should go through without trouble.

- Scan ISBNs Offline
No connection? You can now scan ISBN barcodes while offline and search for them later, once you are back online.

- Easier Calendar Navigation
You can now jump straight to any month or year in the Calendar views, instead of scrolling one month at a time.

As tradition goes, you can expect a few additional fixes and UX improvements.

Happy reading!

### 11.0.1 — 2026-04-03

Dear Bookopedians,

This update brings a major new feature for character management, along with several UI improvements and fixes. Here are the details:

- Character Groups
You can now organize your characters into groups: clans, families, teams, and more. Each group can be color-coded for quick identification, and you can label the role or membership of every character within it.

- Series Overview
Books belonging to the same series are now displayed directly in the Info section, giving you a clearer picture of your reading journey across a series.

- Quotes Linked to Books via ISBN
When importing quotes from a CSV file, you can now include an ISBN field to automatically link each quote to its corresponding book.

- Improved UI for iOS 26
The interface has been updated to take full advantage of iOS 26, including a redesigned menu that works significantly better on iPad.

- Improved Export/Import
The export and import process now correctly handles commas within authors, translators, tags, and similar fields.

As tradition goes, you can expect a few additional fixes and UX improvements.

Happy reading!

### 10.0.0 — 2025-08-27

Dear Bookopedians,

This update (re)introduces importing quotes and several improvements. Here are the details:

- Quote Import
You can import your own list of quotes from a CSV file. It’s that simple, and it’s available from the “Home” tab under the “Quote” section.

- Improved Import
CSV delimiters are now detected automatically, and the import process has been improved to better support custom CSV files.

- Enhanced Notes Interface (Markdown)
Previous version introduced a new interface for notes, but it was limited to non-Markdown notes. This new version handles Markdown notes. It also fixes a visual bug when updating notes.

- Reading Sessions for Preface
Reading books automatically generates reading sessions, but it did not apply to prefaces. This has finally been addressed in this update!

As tradition goes, you can expect a few additional fixes and UX improvements.

Happy reading!

### 9.0.0 — 2025-08-10

Dear Bookopedians,

This update expands German language support and brings several improvements to make your reading and note-taking experience smoother and more efficient:

- German Word Definitions
You can now fetch definitions for German words directly within Bookopedia. This feature is now available for English, French, Spanish, German and Russian.

- Improved ISBN Scanning
The book scanning process has been refined for a faster and more reliable ISBN recognition experience.
