## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Used to love it but not anymore.

*2025-06-13*

I have had this app for years. It started out great where all you needed was the date read, title and author of the book. Now you have to put in all kinds of other information before you can save.  I reached out to the creator with no help from him. Deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-01-17*

Crashes as soon as you begin loading info

### 1/5 — Fake app

*2020-10-24*

I downloaded the paid version as free-deal, I still have ads. Strange 🥺. Since I didn't pay, Uninstaller it.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-02-11*

I paid and downloaded. All it does is crash every time I try to add a book. A waste of money.

### 1/5 — Too fussy

*2019-09-29*

I only want to record titles and authors. It needs other info such as no. of pages, genre, published date etc. Don’t need all that.

### 4/5 — Pratique et simple mais non traduite en français

*2023-04-23*

Cette application est bien pensée. Elle permet de trier tous ses livres avec minutie. Je regrette qu’elle ne soit pas traduite en français car je peine à comprendre certaines fonctions.

### 5/5 — Love that I can keep track

*2024-02-01*

This is so great that I can now keep track of books that I have read instead of guessing. I few times I have bought the same book and do not realize until I have read a few pages. Now I can just look it up and see. Also I can tell how long it takes me to read a book and see how I have progressed in time. That is exciting to me since I never did enjoy reading in school and now I love to read more then watching TV.

### 5/5 — Very Useful!

*2023-03-13*

Easy-to-use app that will save a LOT of data entry, since you can scan the book’s barcode. Developer is very responsive- there was a bit of a problem with scanning on iOS 16, which he resolved right away. 

Highly recommend for those few of us who still get information by way of dead trees.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2022-06-11*

I’ve used this app for a few years now and I just love how easy it is to use. Now granted, I haven’t looked around to other apps because frankly, this serves my purpose. 
The only thing I really would like is to be able to take a screenshot of the cover of my book and have it added immediately instead of saving and moving and blah, blah, blah.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2020-04-29*

I have finally found a way to track books that I’ve read, not only by author but by series too! I absolutely love this app and highly recommend it if you want to track your books.

### 5/5 — Doesn’t seem to work

*2020-04-26, version 1.18*

I want an app like this. Unfortunately, I can’t go back and add notes or change anything. The app just closes. Sad.

### 5/5 — Can’t see the calendar

*2020-01-01*

So I’ve just bought this app! I love that now I have in my phone what I have read!  obviously after I have inputted them all! But the calendar doesn’t work it’s just white! Also it’s frustrating that I have to put the date that I read the book before it allows me to add said book! Please fix it then I will rerate your app!!!
