Offshelf vs Seekquel

Offshelf is the reading tracker that gets you off your phone and into your book. Place your phone face-down to start a session. Pick it up when you're done. Your reading time, pages, and streaks are tracked automatically. Import your entire library from Goodreads with a single CSV upload. Set daily and yearly reading goals. Earn badges as you build your habit. Watch your stats grow over time. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a book by scanning its barcode or searching by title 2. Flip your phone face-down to start reading (or use the manual timer) 3. Pick up your phone when you're done — your session is logged automatically 4. Track your pages, set goals, and watch your reading habit take shape FEATURES • Flip-to-read — a distraction-free reading timer that keeps your phone out of the way • Manual timer — for reading on a Kindle, in bed, or anywhere the flip doesn't work • Barcode scanner — add books instantly • Goodreads import — bring your full reading history • Reading streaks — build consistency day by day • Badges and milestones — celebrate your progress • Daily and yearly goals — stay motivated • Detailed stats — pages, time, sessions, pace, and more • Shareable cards — show off when you finish a book PRIVATE BY DESIGN Offshelf stores everything on your device. No account required. No servers. No data collection. We don't know what you're reading — and we never will. Your reading life is yours alone.

Seekquel is a book tracker you set up yourself. There is a lot in it and none of it is compulsory: build your home screen from the parts you use, switch off the rest, and keep the community on its own tab. Plenty of readers run it as a plain reading log and never touch anything else. SET UP THE HOME SCREEN • More than thirty cards: currently reading, daily goals, your streak, recommendations, your reading calendar and more • Drag them into the order you want and switch off the ones you never use • Arrange your stats page and public profile the same way • 21 themes, from Dark Academia to Cottagecore, and more than twenty app icons • Home screen widgets, adjustable text size, reduced motion and reduced transparency DECIDE WHO SEES WHAT • Public, followers only, or private, then set each part of your profile on its own • Show your reviews but hide your stats, or turn a whole profile tab off • Choose who can message you and approve followers before they see anything • No ads, no data selling, and analytics you can decline • Export everything you have added, whenever you want TRACK YOUR LIBRARY • Add books by title, author, ISBN, or barcode scan • Want to Read, Reading, Paused, Read, and Did Not Finish • Log progress by page, percent, or time listened, in the edition you actually own • Custom shelves, shelves that fill themselves from rules you set, tags, and notes • Track what you own, what you borrowed, and what you lent out • Coming from elsewhere?
