Leafed is a calm, friendly place to keep track of what you read and listen to. WHAT LEAFED WON'T DO - No feed, no followers, no algorithm deciding what you read next - No ads, ever - No AI reading your library - No paywall on your stats - Not owned by Amazon What's left is your books, your notes, and the pile you'll get to eventually. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Keep track of what you're reading, what you've finished, and what's waiting on the nightstand - Open to what matters: what you're reading, what's up next from your Want to Read shelf, and the books you looked at but haven't added yet - Find any book on your shelves fast: search ignores accents and capitals, matches authors, and takes an ISBN - Save a line you love by pointing your camera at the page. Leafed turns it into a quote you can keep - Bring in your Kindle highlights - Audiobooks count too: mark a book as an audiobook, log where you stopped in hours and minutes, and rate the narration on its own - Set a goal for the year (books, pages, or hours) and watch it fill up - Sort books onto shelves that make sense to you, and add your own - Add a book in seconds by scanning its barcode - Tap a genre on any book to see what else is in it - Find your next read: what's trending, browse by genre, the New York Times bestseller lists, and indie books you won't see everywhere else - See your reading in Insights: pages read, hours listened, genres, favorite authors and narrators, a reading calendar, and your finished books as spines on a shelf - Read a written recap of your reading year, made on your phone from your own library - Share a book, a goal, or your year as a card sized for Stories or feeds, saved to Photos or sent anywhere COMING FROM ANOTHER APP? Choose the file the other app gave you, and Leafed works out whether it came from Goodreads, StoryGraph, Bookmory, Audible, or Kindle. You see every change before anything is written; you can fill in or update books you already have, and rows that can't be imported come back as a file you can fix. Your shelves, ratings, and dates come with you, and StoryGraph's moods and pace come across too. And you can export everything anytime. Your books are yours, whether you're in or out. WHERE YOUR BOOKS LIVE IS UP TO YOU - On your phone only. That's the default; it works fully offline and requires no account. - iCloud backup, to keep your library safe across your Apple devices, still without an account. - A free Leafed account, if you'd like your library on every phone and tablet you read on, plus on the web at leafed.app. WHAT IT COSTS Nothing to track your reading. No paywall on your books or stats, no book limit, no subscription. If Leafed earns a spot on your nightstand, there's a tip jar, plus an optional one-time Supporter Pack of share card styles. Tracking, stats and sync stay free either way.

DisciPals is a Bible app designed to help you stay close to Scripture every day. Journey helps you keep a steady reading rhythm with chapter completion, catch-up, progress tracking, and reading streaks that grow any day you read — with a grace day if you miss one. A Verse of the Day greets you on the Journey home, with optional daily notifications. StudyPals groups are private and invite-only. Create or join a group with a code, follow a shared focus, grow together, and chat as you read. Shared content is filtered to help keep conversations safe and respectful. The Bible tab is a dedicated reader with its own reading position, so free browsing never moves your plan's place. Add notes, highlights, and bookmarks as you read, and share verses with links that open straight to the verse in the app. Reflections is a home for sermon notes, prayers, and thoughts. It automatically detects and links Bible references as you type, supports formatting, and syncs across your devices. Milestones help you celebrate progress across the app, including Journey, StudyPals, and streak activity, so you can see how your time in Scripture is growing. Account lets you personalize the app with theme, translations, journey plan, Bible reader preferences, and notifications. It also includes Help & FAQ. You can reset or delete your account whenever you need to. The app is built to work online, but many features also work offline once you sign in. NIV is included in the app, and any translation you download can also be read offline. Available translations include NIV, NLT, NKJV, WEBUS, and ASV.
