What's New in Dwellum

1.5

October 29, 2026

Plot twist: Atlas has a new name. This update also lets you edit the cover and details of any book in your library, includes new greetings, plus smoother animations and a handful of other improvements. A New Name Atlas is now Dwellum. Atlas began as a working title that stuck around a little too long. Dwellum, from dwell and vellum, gives the app a completely unique name that carries a deeper meaning. Learn more by tapping the ‘Why Dwellum?’ button in the app. Edit ANY Book A housewarming gift to go with the new name: a planned paid feature is now free for everyone. Edit the details of ANY book in your library, even those that came from Apple Books. Change the cover, title, publication date, description, or genres so every book looks and reads the way you want. Tap the ellipsis menu on any book and choose Edit Book Details, which now also holds Refresh Book Details. New Greetings - Dwellum has been feeling rather chatty after the name change, so you might come across some new greetings. - Have a greeting idea of your own? You can now suggest one from the Get in Touch page. If it makes the cut, it might show up in a future update. Animation Refinements - The button animation when choosing a list is much smoother on iOS 27. This applies to the Add button in search results and the Add to Library, Favorite, and Owned buttons on a book's detail page. - Batch editing now hides the tab bar to give you more room for selecting books, and entering or exiting batch edit mode animates much more smoothly. Various Improvements - Got an advance copy? Unreleased books marked as Read or Set Aside are now hidden from your Coming Soon list. - Adding a book to your library from the book's page now gets the proper toast with its according list link. - The "A Read with Jenna Pick" promotional tag no longer shows up at the end of book titles. - Books can now be imported from Book Tracker's CSV file via the CSV import flow. - The list of unmatched books after an import now has better spacing and line height, so longer titles are easier to read. - The Import Results screen now has a 'copy the list' button, so you can quickly copy every unmatched book in one tap. Several of these changes came straight from feedback you sent in. Thank you! If you have ideas or run into anything, don't hesitate to reach out to hello@dwellum.app A Small Favor If you're enjoying Dwellum, a quick App Store review makes a big difference and helps shape the future of the app. Enjoy your next read, - Austin

Perfectly simple

Finally a book tracker for those of us who just want to get back to the pages while being able to log what we read. Unlike other apps, it doesn’t feel like this app is trying to monetize my reading log. Just a straight forward app where every interaction is pleasurable.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! I'm so glad to hear the app is working for you and feels simple and straightforward. Reviews like this help the app grow, so it means a lot that you took the time to leave one. Thanks again! - Austin

so nice to have an book tracker that isn’t homework

i’ve long complained about other book tracking apps. goodreads, storygraph, etc have bulky, awkward UIs that just make the whole experience feel like homework. plus i don’t regularly remember to add books i’ve read, so when i do get around to tracking them i often don’t have dates i read them or want to choose a rating. but then i feel like im failing at the app, which is so dumb when the app is supposed to be working for me. makes me nuts.

atlas saves me from all of this. i just want to keep track of what i’ve read and what i want to read, i want it to be an easy experience, and i want it to be pretty. it’s like they downloaded my wishlist and built it. so so happy.

Thank you Lacey for taking the time to leave a review! I'm so happy to hear the app is working for you and doesn't feel like homework. Reviews like this are how other readers find it, so it means a lot that you took the time. You've made my week! - Austin

Awesome app!

I’ll be one of those people…. This is my first review for an app. This app is absolutely amazing. Love the UI, love the privacy, love that there are no metrics, people aren’t trying to sell you stuff or steal your info so other people can sell you stuff. I can enjoy reading at my own pace and see where I’ve been focused over time. Other apps I’ve tried got the privacy right and the lack of social broadcasting right, (My reading is personal and I don’t often like to share), but had reading metrics that honestly made me realize how slowly I read and take away any enjoyment from it. This app is fantastic though in the very early stages it seems. I will gladly support this app as it adds more features and I am so happy I took a chance on it! Thanks to the developer! I wish there were more out there concerned and building for humans. Thank you!!

Thank you so much for this! You've made my week… probably my entire month. Hearing that the privacy, the lack of metrics, and reading at your own pace resonate with you is wonderful. That’s exactly why I built this app. There's plenty more on the way, and if you ever have ideas or feedback, I'd love to hear them at atlas.app@icloud.com. I'm so happy you gave it a try!

A friendly, relaxing app

Atlas is thoughtfully designed and simple to use. It’s a relaxing space for me to keep track of my books and reading plans. I enjoy not feeling the pressure to open it daily to manage lists and streaks and pages. It’s a friendly place to visit when I want to, and the greetings are a delight.

Response from developer

Thank you so much! This genuinely made my entire day. Coming up with the greetings was probably the most fun I had during development, so I'm really glad they landed with you. Happy reading!
