Unable to register

I tried registering with Apple, Google, and Email and it says that didn’t work.

Looks like it is fixed

the best book tracker

i loveeee this app, i use it pretty much everyday. the algorithm is SO good and so much better than all the other social media apps i've used (maybe because it's book-based). but the posts you see from the books you have on your shelf keeps your interest in them alive. and seeing other people commenting or reading a book makes you want to engage more with it, it's just brilliant!

i don't have pagebound royalty but a small request: it would be nice if we could have date & time on all the posts 😭🙏🏼 just to know if comments are outdated (maybe information-wise) or to see when someone was actually reading a book. please. i don't think it should be that hard to implement this.

Best reading log app

I’ve tried every other reading app and non of them have been this amazing. I love how community based this app is and how the creators actually listen to their users. I never thought I’d pay for an app subscription but I use Pagebound every day and think the subscription is absolutely worth the money. Thank you to the two amazing women who have created this phenomenal reading app 🫶🫶

Top of the line book tracking app

This app is better than Good Reads, StoryGraph and Fable combined! The creators are constantly update the app and seeking feedback from the users. I now use only one app where I was having to use multiple. Love the app and the community ❤️

Won’t go back

After years of using Goodreads I switched to Pagebound and have never looked back. Not only does it have more features, you can tell that the developers are readers themselves and think through which features are added. I highly recommend Pagebound over other platforms and love that it is AI-free

FAQ

What does Pagebound do?

Pagebound is a social book tracking app that combines internet forums with reading progress tracking. It allows users to discuss books as they read them in dedicated forums for each title, earn points and badges for their reading activity, and organize their personal library.

How does the social reading feature work?

Users can post their thoughts, theories, and reactions to a specific book's forum. Posts can be sorted by reading progress, allowing users to read along with others globally. Anyone with the book in their library can see and interact with these posts, facilitating discussions and connections with other readers.

Is Pagebound free to use?

The app is free to download and use, with options for in-app purchases. This allows users to access core features without upfront cost, while offering additional value through optional purchases.

What kind of books can I track and discuss?

You can track and discuss any book you add to your library. The app supports organizing your 'to-be-read' list, rating books with detailed sub-ratings, and marking books as 'paused' or 'did not finish'.

How does Pagebound connect readers?

It connects readers based on shared literary tastes and discussion content, rather than follower counts or visual profiles. The platform emphasizes anonymous profiles and no algorithms to foster genuine connections around shared reading experiences.
