What's New in Reading List

2.9.1

June 11, 2026

Hello readers! Many of you have emailed in to report that the barcode scan or online search was no longer returning results. I've been investigating these issues for some time now, and this update at last switches to a different provider of book metadata. I hope that the coverage should now be more comprehensive, and the service more reliable. Please do reach out if you have any feedback about the metadata results in this update. If it's working better for you now, a rating or review would genuinely help spread the word :) As always, happy reading! --- Version 2.9.1 includes further refinements of the new book metadata search functionality.

Great app to keep me on the straight and narrow with my reading.

Can’t recommend this app enough!

I barely ever write reviews for apps but this app is so perfect that I feel like I have to. For anyone who wants an offline, elegant and simple reading tracker that works great on iOS look no further! The interface is great and allows enough customisation of the data that you don’t have to faff about with finding the right listing or whatever (although the auto-search works great as well). Everything I love about apps like Goodreads, but without any of the clutter. Brilliant!

Great app

Amazing app. I own a lot of books and sometimes forget what I own (physical and digital) and what I’ve already read. This app is super helpful. Highly recommend!

5 stars

An excellent app even when only using the free version.

Improved my reading journey

This app has improved my reading life by like 300%. I read about 100 books a year and keep track of my reading journey for each book with this app. The Lifetime purchase is great as well. No need for a monthly fee which is a turn off for me and apps.
