## What is Marca?

Track every book you read and build a daily reading habit. Your TBR, today's pages and your streak, in one calm place.

Read a little every day: a 10-minute goal, a reading timer, and a streak that forgives a busy day.

Want to scroll less? Marca can lock your social apps until you've read for 10 minutes.

TRACK YOUR READING
- Add any book in seconds: search millions of titles or scan the barcode
- Shelves for your TBR, what's on your shelf, what you're reading, finished and set aside
- Pages and minutes read today, progress, ratings and notes
- Save the quotes worth keeping, on the page you found them

BUILD THE HABIT
- A tiny daily goal: 10 minutes or 10 pages
- A calm reading timer with a Live Activity on your Lock Screen
- A forgiving streak with a free skip each week
- Your reading month as a calendar of covers, a yearly challenge, and Home Screen widgets

READ BEFORE YOU SCROLL (optional)
- Choose the apps that eat your evenings
- Marca locks them with Apple's Screen Time until you've read today's goal, then they stay open until midnight
- Need something urgent? Two five-minute passes a day, and a pass opens only that one app
- Strict Mode (Marca+) removes the passes
- Marca never learns which apps you chose: Screen Time keeps that private

SEE YOUR READING
- Books, pages, hours, streaks and reading pace
- How many days reading opened your apps
- A shareable card for every finished book

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No feed. No ads. Your reading life stays on your device.

MARCA+
Strict Mode, unlimited quotes, the full stats, two daily goals and every theme.
- A monthly or yearly subscription, or pay once for lifetime access
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID; subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.1.1 — 2026-10-24

Marca 2.1.1

• Your month in books: a story-sized card of every book, page and day you read, ready to post. Every month waits in Insights.
• Try Marca+ free for 7 days on the yearly plan. Marca reminds you two days before the trial ends.
• One daily reminder at the time you choose, naming the book you're reading.
• Insights you can tap, and your book cover now shows in tinted and clear widgets.

### 2.0.2 — 2026-10-14

Marca 2.0.2

• Marca now asks for a rating a little earlier, after your first 3-day streak, and still never more than once in a long while.
• A refreshed App Store page.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-10-12

Marca 2.0.1

• Marca+ works again. If you tried to subscribe and nothing happened, I'm sorry. That's fixed, and if the App Store can't be reached, Marca now says so instead of showing a button that does nothing.
• Scanning finds far more books, especially French, German and Spanish editions.
• Between two books, Home now helps you pick the next one instead of asking you to add your first.
• Leave the app halfway through setup and you'll come back where you left off.
• Talk to the maker: You → About. One person makes Marca and reads every message.
• Read First, for everyone who started before it existed: a one-time card on Home to set it up, if you want it.

### 2.0.0 — 2026-09-30

Marca 2.0 — read more, scroll less.

Marca has always tracked your books. Now it can help you get to them.

READ FIRST
Choose the apps that eat your evenings — Instagram, TikTok, whatever it is for you. They stay locked until you've read today's goal, then stay open until midnight. No countdown, so reading in the morning pays off all day.

There's one reading goal now — the same number your streak counts — and it's free to change. Need a minute before you've read? Two five-minute passes a day — and a pass opens only the app you tapped, not everything you locked. Strict Mode (Marca+) removes them. Built on Apple's Screen Time, so Marca never learns which apps you picked. Entirely optional.

YOUR STREAK, OPENED OUT
Tap the flame on the home screen for your reading month as a calendar of covers — and a card worth sharing.

ALSO NEW
- A calmer home screen, with your book front and centre
- Two new Marca+ themes: Nocturne and Almanac
- Read First stats and three new achievements
- Now in French, German and Spanish

Read more. Keep every book.

### 1.1 — 2026-07-19

Marca 1.1 — start reading tonight.

• New onboarding: pick your book and read your first five minutes right away — your streak starts on day one
• Scan a barcode to add a physical book in seconds
• Better book search, with millions more titles
• Home Screen widgets: your streak and current read at a glance
• Live Activity: your reading session on the Lock Screen
• Shareable cards for every finish — plus your Year in Books
• A Week One recap to celebrate your first seven days
• Optional second daily goal, and a new lifetime option for Marca+
