## What is Leafed?

Leafed is a calm, friendly place to keep track of what you read.

No ads. No feed. Nothing nudging you to read faster or buy more. Just your books, your notes, and the pile you'll get to eventually.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Keep track of what you're reading, what you've finished, and what's waiting on the nightstand
- Save a line you love by pointing your camera at the page. Leafed turns it into a quote you can keep
- Bring in your Kindle highlights
- Set a goal for the year (books, pages, or hours) and watch it fill up
- See your reading in Insights: pages, genres, favorite authors, and a year in review you can share
- Sort books onto shelves that make sense to you, and add your own
- Add a book in seconds by scanning its barcode, or point your camera at a whole shelf
- Find your next read: what's trending, browse by genre, the New York Times bestseller lists, and indie books you won't see everywhere else
- See your reading in Insights: pages, genres, favorite authors, a reading calendar, and your finished books as spines on a shelf
- Share a book, a goal, or your year as a card sized for Stories or feeds, saved to Photos or sent anywhere

COMING FROM ANOTHER APP?
Bring your whole library from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or Bookmory in a couple of taps. Your shelves, ratings, and dates come with you. And you can export everything anytime. Your books are yours, coming and going.

WHERE YOUR BOOKS LIVE IS UP TO YOU
- On your phone only. That's the default; it works fully offline and requires no account.
- iCloud backup, to keep your library safe across your Apple devices, still without an account.
- A free Leafed account, if you'd like your library on every phone and tablet you read on, plus on the web at leafed.app.

WHAT IT COSTS
Nothing. No paywall, no book limit, no subscription. If Leafed earns a spot on your nightstand, there's a tip jar. That's it.

Built by one person who reads.

### 5/5 — Hallelujah

*2026-01-27*

I have gotten 5 book trackers and this one was the best by FAR. 
1. Some of the other apps didn’t support iPad/Macbook screens- this app does. 
2. I read a lot of really old books and I just couldn’t find a lot of them on the other apps I tried. This app surprisingly found all of them with no problems!
3. Love the clean design and how it has dark mode.
4. NO ADS!! 

Cons:
Doesn’t use accounts for syncing, which some people would be ok with that, but I have a Phone and iPad that I want to use the app on. Luckily you CAN import and export the data within the app between your electronics and it’s pretty simple, you just have to do it manually. 

Something that I would recommend for the app is more organizing options. Like having files within a file. That would be amazing for organizing.

**Developer response:** Hello again! I’ve set up ability to create accounts so you can sync across devices. It will be available on the next release that gets approved by Apple. If you’re still using the app, feel free to check it out.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.28.0 — 2026-08-26

Share your reading where you actually post.

Every card in Leafed now comes in two sizes: Post for feeds, Threads, and X, and Story for TikTok, Reels, and Instagram Stories. Save one straight to Photos and pick it from Recents in whichever app you use. The caption comes along too — copy it with one tap and paste it into your post.

Also new:
• Share your whole finished shelf, or your reading calendar, the same way
• Cards carry a short link back to Leafed instead of a wall of store text
• Read a book again, and it counts: re-reads get their own rating, mood, and dates
• Show any shelf as spines on a shelf, and search inside long shelves
• A Home Screen widget: the books you're reading, standing on a little shelf. Long-press your Home Screen, tap +, search Leafed
• Your finished shelf: this year's finished books as spines on a shelf, at the top of Insights, and shareable
• A reading calendar: a month grid with the cover of whatever you read each day
• Surprise me: tap the shuffle on Want to Read and let it pick your next book
• Re-reads count: read a book again and it gets its own rating, mood, and dates
• Show any shelf as spines, and search inside long shelves
• Habits leads with your streak and a 30-day rhythm line; your goal is a ring now

Your books still live on your phone first. Free, as always.

### 1.26.0 — 2026-08-24

Leafed has a fresh new look.

Softer colors, a warmer typeface, and a new little mark: three books and a sprout. Ratings are leaves now. It's the same app you know, just easier on the eyes.

A few more things to try:
• See what readers everywhere are picking up right now, and wander by genre when you're not sure what's next
• Show your library as a grid of covers, and pick the cover you like best for any book
• Learn a little about the author right on the book page
• Settings are easier to find your way around, and bringing your books over from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or Bookmory is one tap from the home screen
• The reading timer behaves itself after you save a session, and your starting page is filled in for you
• Lots of small fixes and polish

Your books still live on your phone first. Free, as always.

### 1.23.0 — 2026-08-19

Reading Recaps for any period — your shareable wrap-up card now works for any month, quarter, or custom span, not just the year.

Also in this release:

• Year vs. year: Insights compares this year's books, pages, and hours against last year
• Reader fit: book pages show how a title matches your taste, computed entirely on your device
• Bug fixes and stability improvements

### 1.22.0 — 2026-08-11

• Import your Kindle highlights — bring in My Clippings.txt, and every highlight becomes a quote on the matching book. Re-import anytime; nothing duplicates.
• Capture quotes with your camera — photograph a page, tap the lines you want, done. Text recognition runs entirely on your device.
• Add quotes anywhere — a new + button on Your Quotes lets you jot a quote from any book in your library.
• Find Duplicates — merge accidental double-adds of the same book; shelves, quotes, and reading history combine automatically.
• Sync across devices — create a free optional account in Settings, and your library follows you to any phone or tablet.
• Sign in with a simple email code — no password to remember.
• Your books always stay on your device, with or without an account.
