Most reading apps track what you've already read. ReadPath decides what you read next. Tell ReadPath what you want reading to change for you β€” think more clearly at work, lead without burning out, get better with money. Choose how long you want your path to be, and how many books a month you can actually manage. ReadPath builds the plan: real books, in order, each with a line on why that book belongs on your path. YOUR PATH Three, six or twelve months. One, two or three books a month. Every book is checked to exist before it reaches you, with its real cover and page count. You see the book in your hands and the one after it β€” the rest unlocks as you go. READING SESSIONS Read in timed sessions and log your pages. Save the lines worth keeping as you go: quotes, bookmarks, reflections, and the ideas you want handed back to you later. YOUR WEEK, READ BACK TO YOU Every Sunday, ReadPath looks at everything you captured that week and writes you a review β€” the one idea your week kept coming back to, the themes running underneath it, your strongest note in your own words, and one thing worth trying next week. BOOK OF THE MONTH On the first of every month, one book is chosen for you alone. It stays covered until you tap to reveal it, and then tells you why this book, and why now. A STREAK WORTH KEEPING One session a day is all it takes. ReadPath counts the days you read and nudges you at the time you chose, on the days you chose. FREE AND PREMIUM Search any book and save it to your shelves, free. Reading sessions, your notes, your AI reading plan, the weekly review, and the Book of the Month are part of ReadPath Premium. Try Premium free for 7 days. SUBSCRIPTION ReadPath Premium is available monthly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your iPhone's Settings.
