I love how personable it is with the shelving. I do wish there was a way to add books manually since I do tend to read indie books or debut novels a lot. Otherwise amazing! **Developer response:** Hey Maddy! We are really happy you enjoy using the visual shelves in the app to personalize your book tracking :). Good news, adding books manually has been our most requested feature since we launched and we expect it to be in an update next week! If you have any other feedback you can join our discord community (https://theshelflifeapp.com/discord) or subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/theshelflifeapp/) or email us at admins@theshelflifeapp.com! ### 5/5 — BEST SHELF BOOK TRACKING APP *2026-08-26* I’ve tried all the book shelf style book tracking apps (literally) and this one is by far the best! Easy to figure out, most flexible with decorating and personalizing and so easy to add missing books while also having an already big library of books in its system. It is so fun! It’s truly the best version of the many versions of virtual book shelf tracking apps and I’m so glad I found it! ### 5/5 — Best Curated Social Media Experience For Passionate Readers *2026-08-19* This is the kind of curated social media for readers I’ve always wanted! I’m able to peer into the book tastes of my colleagues without digging too deep into conversations about their favorite books. Where messages and communication between users exist, it’s towards purposeful topic-driven prompts about the books. I’ve been able to neatly organize my book list, leave the notes I would want others to read about my takeaways for each book or collection, and best of all I’ve received awesome book suggestions with the app’s signal feature! I otherwise wouldn’t have considered the suggestions if I relied on recommendation algorithms alone. Please join! **Developer response:** 🙌 🙌 🙌 thank you! Part of the reason we built ShelfLife is that we wanted to connect people over recommendations instead of relying on flaky algorithms or horrendous AI responses. Glad you like it! ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2026-08-12* Love decorating in the app and getting creative with my shelves! Also love the community aspect of it! **Developer response:** Thank you! This review made our day since it's the first one! 🙌 Decorating shelves is our favorite part of the app too. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
