## What is Bookpather?

Bookpather turns the books you already own into a reading plan you can follow. Scan your shelf, decide what to read next, time your reading and keep the key ideas of every book in one place.

SCAN COVERS, BARCODES AND WHOLE SHELVES
Point the camera at a cover, a barcode or an entire shelf, or pick a photo, and Bookpather finds the books. You can also search by title or author, or add any book by hand.

A LIBRARY THAT LOOKS LIKE ONE
Every book gets its own library card: author, pages, year, your notes and a status stamp (Want to Read, Reading, Finished or Dropped). Books without a cover get a typographic cover of their own.

PATHS: WHAT TO READ NEXT
Choose a skill or a goal and Bookpather suggests an order for books from your own shelf. Review every step before you save it, or build a Path by hand. Follow your progress and always know what comes next.

KEY IDEAS FOR EVERY BOOK
Save a book's central idea, main takeaways and the skills it builds right on its card. A quick refresher is always one tap away.

READING SESSIONS AND A DAILY STREAK
Start a timer when you sit down to read. Bookpather adds up your minutes, keeps your daily streak going and shows simple stats.

NOW READING / UP NEXT WIDGETS
Part of Bookpather Pro: your current book and the next one in your Path, on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no tracking
• Your library stays on your device and syncs through your personal iCloud
• Export your books, notes, Key ideas and Paths as JSON at any time
• Key ideas and suggested Paths are generated by an AI model. Only book details (title, author, description and tags) are sent, and only after you agree. Photos and personal notes are never sent.

FREE TO START
Your library, scanning, statuses, notes, iCloud sync and export are free, and so are reading sessions with today's minutes, your daily streak and this week's stats. You can also try Paths and 3 Key ideas without paying.

BOOKPATHER PRO
Unlimited Paths and Key ideas, full reading stats (the last 12 weeks, months, time per book and books finished this year) and the Now reading / Up next widgets for the Home and Lock Screen. Choose an annual plan with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers, a monthly plan, or Lifetime, a one-time purchase. Prices are shown in the app before you buy.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and the renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Lifetime is not a subscription.
