## What is myShelf?

The reading journal that makes you want to read.
myShelf tracks your books, times your reading sessions, keeps your daily goal on track and turns your reading into cards worth sharing. Free, with no ads.

READING SESSIONS
Tap Read, put your phone down, get lost in your book. The timer runs and your daily goal ring fills up as you read. When you stop, enter the page you reached: myShelf counts your pages and works out your real pace. A line you loved? Jot it down on the spot and it goes straight into your reading journal.

A DAILY GOAL, A YEARLY CHALLENGE
Pick how many books you want to read this year. myShelf turns it into a monthly pace and a daily goal in minutes that you can fit around your life. A reminder at the time you usually read, a streak that keeps growing, and you always know whether you're ahead.

YOUR LIBRARY IN SECONDS
• Scan barcodes one after another, straight from your pile
• Search by title, author or ISBN
• Import your Goodreads, StoryGraph or Babelio history: statuses, ratings, reviews and dates, with no duplicates
• Rate in half stars and write your review
• To read, in progress, read, abandoned: every book has its place, your TBR included

STATS THAT TELL YOUR STORY
Reading time, pages per hour, days read, longest streak, biggest book, fastest read. Find out whether you're a morning or a night reader, and compare this week with your usual. Your weekly recap is free.

SHARE YOUR READING, BEAUTIFULLY
Current read, review, shelf, goal, session, quote, achievement: every moment becomes a story or post card, ready for Instagram, TikTok or your camera roll. You choose what it shows. No Canva needed.

YOUR COLLECTION, MEASURED
Mark the books you own and see your pile in a new light: how tall it stands (a labrador? a giraffe? the Eiffel Tower?), what it weighs, what it's worth new, your oldest book, your biggest doorstopper, your favorite publishers and how long it would take to read it all.

A READER PROFILE THAT FEELS LIKE YOU
Arrange your books on your own shelves, pick your 3 bedside books and collect wax-seal achievements, from "First page" to "Bookworm". Your profile even has its own web page. Rather read for yourself? Go private and choose who follows you.

YOUR NOTEBOOK AND JOURNAL
A private note for every book, for your eyes only. And a journal that keeps every session, day after day, as a list or a calendar.

FIND YOUR NEXT READ
Follow readers like you and see what they finish, rate and recommend. On every book page, reviews from people you follow come first, next to the estimated reading time. Follow your favorite authors and myShelf lets you know when they publish something new.

MYSHELF PREMIUM
Go further with unlimited shelves, monthly, yearly and all-time recaps, the list of readers who viewed your profile, and every color, font and photo background for your cards. Monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.

### 4/5 — Application pratique

*2026-08-17*

Bonjour, j’étais à la recherche d’une application qui me permettait de répertorier, noter, classer et partager avec des amis des livres. Je suis assez conquise par l’application, cependant je trouve qu’elle gagnerait beaucoup à permettre aux utilisateurs de mettre un top 4 de livres affiché sur le profil, et aussi de noter les films par demi-étoile (ex: 3,5 au lieu de 3 ou 4). Je pensais aussi à des listes sur les auteurs sur son profil… que ça marche davantage par auteurs ça serait vraiment plus intéressant. Mais merci pour cette bonne application je suis contente de cette découverte.

### 5/5 — Excellente application pour les passionnés de lecture, mais aussi pour ceux qui souhaitent s’y remet

*2026-06-14*

Grâce à Myshelf, j’ai repris l’habitude de lire et je prends plaisir à suivre ma progression au quotidien. L’application est intuitive, belle et motivante.

Je recommande sans hésiter !

### 5/5 — Un régale

*2026-06-12*

Super appli pour ranger mes livres et noter ce que j’ai lu. J’ai même trouvé quelques idées de lecture grâce aux suggestions. Simple à utiliser !

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-06-12*

Mais sérieux ? Ça tue, j’ai hâte de remplir mes étagères !
