ReadXP turns the quiet habit of reading into a cozy reading tracker and RPG you'll actually keep up with. Log your books, watch your character gain XP, unlock badges, climb career tiers, and build a beautiful book tracker library you're proud of - all offline, all yours. Whether you're a casual reader wanting a gentle reading log encouragement or a voracious bookworm who likes seeing the detailed numbers behind the habit, ReadXP is the ultimate book log that gives your books a second life on the shelf you carry in your pocket. A BOOK TRACKER THAT'S YOURS Complete Book Log: Keep track of every book you've ever read - finished, reading, or on the shelf for later. Three custom shelf views: wooden spines, cover art, or a clean, minimal list. Shelf themes that match your RPG class (Paladin, Scholar, Wanderer, and more). Choose your avatar - your personalized reading log, your unique aesthetic. Fast search, genre filters, and custom shelves for your specific reading projects. READING IS THE GAME Every page you log earns you XP and levels up your character. Level up through career tiers with real titles - from Apprentice to Saint. Pick a character class with unique XP perks and reading abilities. Customize your profile avatar, card color, and portrait. Unlock Ancient Chronicle lore chapters as your reading progress grows. BADGES, STREAKS & QUESTS 80+ badges across pages, books, streaks, sessions, and overall performance. Daily quests that rotate - hit your page goal, log a morning session, add a note. Streak shield protects a missed day when life gets in the way of your reading. Advanced reading tracker goals for daily pages, weekly books, monthly pages, and yearly books. HONEST, DETAILED STATS Comprehensive reading log stats: Pages read, time logged, average speed, and best sessions. Panoramic weekly / monthly / yearly data views. Genre breakdown chart so you can see what you actually read. Best-session leaderboard calculated from your own reading history. Personal bests, visual reading heatmap, and major milestone markers. RPG ECONOMY WITHOUT THE GRIND Earn Shards directly from reading - never paid for with real money. Spend your hard-earned Shards in the Store on cloaks, weapons, rings, and potions. Common to Mythic rarity tiers, with extra XP bonuses per equipped item. Equipment boosts are modest - the real reward is still the reading itself. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Works fully offline after install - a standalone offline book tracker with no account required. Your personal library, logs, and progress live safely on your device. No ads, no social feed, no reading-shaming algorithms. PREMIUM (OPTIONAL) ReadXP is free to use. Premium unlocks the full RPG layer of your reading tracker: Career Path & prestige tiers Class abilities and class-swap Ancient Chronicle lore Mastery Tree skill points Advanced stats and deep goals Available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Cancel anytime. Or you may have the app lifetime for a one-time payment. WHY READXP IS DIFFERENT Most reading apps are either cold spreadsheets or distracting social feeds. ReadXP is neither - it's a single-player reading log wrapped in a warm, hand-drawn RPG universe. It rewards showing up without nagging, celebrates pages without turning your books into a race, and keeps your shelf in a place that feels like a home, not a spreadsheet. Thank you for reading - and for letting ReadXP sit on your home screen.
