## What is Shlf?

Shlf — A Reading Tracker Built for Readers

Shlf is a focused reading tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch, designed for people who still believe in reading as a habit, not a performance.

Track your reading by pages or time, start and finish sessions from your wrist, and always know exactly where you left off — even while reading.

Why readers choose Shlf
- Track reading from Apple Watch — start, pause, and finish sessions from your wrist  
- Live reading sessions on Apple Watch and Dynamic Island  
- Log pages or time for physical books, eBooks, and audiobooks  
- Always know where you left off, even mid-session  
- Build a personal library with ISBN scanning or search  
- Save quotes and exact page positions as you read  
- Clear goals, streaks, and long-term statistics — no social pressure  

Shlf works offline, requires no account, and puts privacy first. Optional iCloud sync keeps your reading data aligned across devices.

Clean, precise, and designed to stay out of the way — so the book remains the focus.
