## What is Chapters?

Chapters keeps your book clubs connected between meetings, without spoilers.

Every club has the same problem: one person finishes the book in a weekend, another is still on chapter three, and nobody can say what they're thinking until you all meet. Chapters ties each conversation to the chapter it belongs to, so everyone can share as they read and no one has the ending ruined.

NOTES THAT WAIT FOR YOU
Leave a reaction, a theory, or a favorite line on any chapter. Your note stays sealed until another member reaches that chapter, then it opens for them. Add a short teaser if you'd like to give them something to look forward to.

EVERYTHING YOUR CLUB NEEDS
• Start a club and invite friends with a simple Hearth code, or turn the code off when your club is full
• Keep a shared shelf of what you're reading now, what's up next, and what you've finished
• Search for books to add and track your progress chapter by chapter
• See how far along each member is in every book
• Heart and reply to each other's notes
• Follow your clubs' activity in your feed
• Turn on notifications to hear about activity on notes
• Join from your phone or on the web, and choose a light or dark look

WHAT IT ISN'T
Chapters isn't a replacement for your club's meetings. There's no group chat, no photo or video sharing, and no doom scrolling. It's a simple, quiet way to share a book between meetings.

GET YOUR LIBRARY CARD
Chapters is free to use. An optional Library Card subscription adds more for devoted readers:
• Create up to 10 clubs (free accounts can create 1)
• Write longer notes, up to 2,000 characters (500 on free accounts)
• Keep a Private Library, a personal shelf just for you
• See your Reading Stats: streaks, activity over time, and favorite authors and genres
• Personalize the app with extra themes and your profile with curated avatar borders

FOUNDER'S EDITION
For a limited time, become a Founding Member with a one-time purchase. You'll get the Library Card for life, plus the exclusive Founder's Edition avatar border and Founding Member badge.

SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS
Library Card is available as an auto-renewing monthly or annual subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm your purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before that period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. Founder's Edition is a one-time purchase and doesn't renew.

### 5/5 — Perfect for me

*2026-11-07*

This app has been perfect for stage small groups I am in, as we read books together. We can jot down our thoughts, and there are no spoilers until people have read the chapter. Then when we get together there is more discussion than before when we were trying to remember what we read.

I also love it for the personal reading stats, and for keeping quotes and thoughts.

This app keeps things simple, but highly functional. It is my new favorite app.
