App down?
I really like the app, especially the combination of the highlight function, tracking my books and the social function. But the server has been unable to connect for two days now :(
(And some books are missing from the catalogue, so no 5 stars)

Buggy
The app isn’t opening for me at all.
App no longer works
The app no longer works and I have lost my last 3 years of book tracking 💔😓
Some books not listed
I tried to add books to my current reading, and it is not listed on the app at all. I can’t even request it. What do I do now my reading numbers are off by one.
Can’t import from good reads
CAN YOU GUYS PLEASE UPADTE YOUR APP SO I CAN UPLOAD MY GOODREAD STUFF IT WONT ALLOW ME TO!!
Fav book tracker
This is by far the best app I have found for keeping track of books! I prefer its layout and functions much more than good reads (ew) and even to Storygraph. I also like the book club ability and the interactive nature of the app.
I can't access my account
I haven’t been able to access my account, and it’s been almost two months without any response to my emails. Resolving account issues or resetting a password shouldn’t be this difficult.
Worthless
I’ve written them a bunch of times and never get a response. In addition to my previous issue importing, why, oh, why do they alphabetize authors names by the first letter of the first name?!?! Do they not know how to alphabetize authors?! I’m looking into other apps, as much as I like their layout, it’s pretty worthless if I can’t import anything into it and getting any assistance is nonexistent.

Super but
Love this app but.. it lacks fluidity. I feel like I'm using it on an old phone.
Abandoned App?
I will start by saying, I LOVED Literal. I joined back when it was invite-only and recommended it to everyone I know. The app I once loved has been all but abandoned by developers. Features no longer work, new books are not being added, and the promised reading wrapped was never sent out for the last two years now. I tried to reach out to support through email and social media channels with no response.

save your time, go with a different app
The import tools don’t work, the export tools don’t work. You can’t search by ISBN, which is like a huge reason of why you would even want one of these
Goodreads import doesnt work
Been waiting 2 days and its still stuck on 0. Shame because i was looking forward to using this app
GR sync not working
I really wanted to like this app and switch from good reads but syncing doesn’t seem to work
Importing problems
I mostly use storygraph so i only go into the app every few months. I had imported from both storygraph and goodreads before. When i tried again last week i would only have the option to go from good reads but it wasnt doing anything. I would get the notification that the import started but when clicked it says 0 of of 0 books. Storygraph had some missing books and i only got the option to import when i deleted my library. So i did the steps and exported and uploaded the export and waited for the import to finish thinking it just might take a bit. Its been 5 days and its still loading. Goodreads import button is still doing the same thing which is nothing.
I submitted two reports and have received nothing yet.

way too glitchy
every time i do literally anything in the app it glitches. and especially when im trying to edit my reviews it doesn’t save even though i click the save changes button?? please get this fixed i want to really like this app
Too annoying to use
The first app I’ve ever deleted bc the UX was so frustrating. For example, if you add a book you recently read, mark it as read, and add the dates you read it, it will list the book as Currently Reading. Then if you try to update it to Finished, it registers that as you having read the book for a second time. Makes no sense!

Didn’t like it
At first, I thought this app was perfect for me, but then I noticed a lot of books were missing, and also, that it’s very messy. I don’t recommend, if you are an ADHD or OCD person, because it might frustrate and confuse your brain.
amazing but outdated
it’s a lot better and aesthetically pleasing than others available for the same purpose. the social features are just enough, pretty design, nice goal features… but the app is also outdated—the last updates were made 1 year ago. there are rarely covers for other editions or a huge catalogue to pick a book from. non-english books are impossible to find.
there would be nice to at least have more news and infos on updates and useful content for the users

better ux than goodreads
Better ux than goodreads! But I can’t import my library from goodreads :-(
Needs work
I have been using this app on and off for over a year now. I like the design and overall concept of the app. But, it has a lot of room
for improvement. I regularly encounter book pages with missing information (no cover, no synopsis, no author bio), as well as no book pages at all (including award winning books, nominated books, etc). I filled out a form months ago to become a “librarian” to help fill in missing data and what not, but never heard back. And today I spent a few minutes writing out a review for a book but after tapping save, i found that it did not save and no draft is available, so that review is now lost. I started using this app because a friend recommended it and because i wanted to divest from Amazon related alternatives. I hope this app will show signs of improvement soon. i’ve enjoyed using it besides the issues noted above.
