## What is Pocket Shelf?

If you’re like me and love buying books —
and somehow you’ve bought so many that you now need an app to keep track of them —
then Pocket Shelf is for you.
Whether you read them or not?
That can wait.
Once you own them, there’s always time.

What is Pocket Shelf?
Pocket Shelf is a minimal book tracking app.
It doesn’t push you to read.
It doesn’t care about progress.
It simply helps you put the books you already own back on a shelf.

You can use it to:

· Track the books you own
Scan a barcode, enter an ISBN, or add them manually.

· Mark simple reading states
Read · Unread · Abandoned
There’s no “Currently Reading.”
And there never will be.

· Use the cover you prefer
Not happy with the low-resolution cover fetched automatically?
Scan your own or choose one from your photo library.

· Import via CSV
Perfect if you already keep a book list.
