BooksMy vs Libaroo

BooksMy is a reading journal for every book you read, whether it’s on paper, on an e-reader, or in your ears. Time your sessions, save the lines you love, and watch your reading habit grow. No account, no sign-up. TIME EVERY SESSION Start the timer when you open your book and follow it live on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. When you stop, log your page, a quick note, and the book’s status in one step. BooksMy keeps your full reading history, charts for each book, and an estimate of how much time you have left. Track print, ebooks, and audiobooks by page or percentage, along with pauses, rereads, and books you didn’t finish. KEEP THE LINES YOU LOVE Save quotes and notes with the page, chapter, and time. Scan text straight from the page with your camera or a photo, or simply dictate. Add tags and favorites, then search, filter, and share your quotes as polished images. Drafts you didn’t save are waiting when you come back. GOALS YOU’LL ACTUALLY KEEP Set daily time or page goals and monthly or yearly book goals, then build streaks with reminders on the days you choose, up to three times a day. Your statistics show time, pages, and books for any period, your most active days, and how you compare with the period before. Look back with monthly and yearly calendars and your Year in Review, and share a reading card in square, portrait, or story size. ON YOUR WRIST AND HOME SCREEN Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen. Your current book, daily goal, and streak on Apple Watch. Siri and Shortcuts to pause or resume your session timer, scan a barcode, or jump to your stats. ADD BOOKS IN SECONDS Scan one barcode or a whole stack in a row, or search by title, author, or ISBN and add several results at once. Adding by hand? Snap your own cover. BooksMy warns you about duplicates and keeps track of series, volumes, and editions. A LIBRARY THAT ORGANIZES ITSELF Reading, To Read, Finished, and Did Not Finish shelves, your own lists, and smart lists that fill themselves by rating, series, mood, location, loans, and more. Rate plot, characters, writing, and atmosphere separately. Remember who borrowed which book and when it’s due, and which shelf, room, or box every book lives in.
