ReadersGuild turns reading into something you can see, measure, share, and make your own. Think Strava, but for books. Track every reading session. Build your own digital bookshelf. Read alongside friends. Watch your reading life take shape over time. Start a reading timer. Log your pages and mood. Discover how you read. Share what you're reading with people who actually care. ReadersGuild is a social reading tracker built around the idea that reading is better when it's visible, shared, and part of your identity. TRACK YOUR READING SESSIONS Start a timer every time you read. Log pages, duration, and your mood. Sessions sync to your profile and feed automatically. BUILD YOUR DIGITAL BOOKSHELF Your library is more than a list of books. Build a bookshelf that's yours. Add books by barcode scan, search, or manual entry. Organize them by currently reading, to be read, finished, or gave up. Then make your shelf your own with collectible boards, backdrops, and ornaments that you earn through reading. EARN SHILLINGS. DECORATE YOUR SHELF. Reading earns Shillings. Every minute you read helps you earn the currency you spend on your bookshelf. Unlock beautiful collectible decorations, customize your shelf, and slowly build a visual record of the reading life you've actually lived. READ TOGETHER Reading doesn't have to happen alone. Start a reading session inside your own Fire, invite friends, and read together in the same shared room. See who's reading, react to each other's sessions, and share the experience without turning reading into a competition. SEE YOUR STATS Pages per day. Average session length. Reading pace. Time by genre. Your best reading hours. Weekly and monthly trends. See exactly where your time goes. STREAKS AND GOALS Set an annual reading goal. Build daily reading streaks. Earn achievements for milestones. The kind of accountability that actually works. SHARE LIKE AN ATHLETE Post reading sessions to your feed with Strava-style share cards. Your friends see what you read, how long, and what you thought. Share to Instagram Stories with custom artifact cards. EARN YOUR EMBLEM The Guild is everyone who reads in ReadersGuild. One community, one feed. Invite friends and your emblem climbs with every reader who arrives through you. From Scout to Guild Master, your rank is visible on your profile. Reading is better when your people are doing it too. COMMUNITY BOOK DATA See mood and vibe tags from other readers (dark, hopeful, funny, slow-burn). Check content warnings before you start. Contribute corrections to book metadata. Built by readers, for readers. PREMIUM Free users get the full reading tracker with a 10-book library. Premium lifts the book cap, adds advanced stats and charts, and gives you premium share card designs. ReadersGuild is built by a reader, for readers. No ads. No data selling. Just a clean tool that makes your reading life visible. SUBSCRIPTION & TERMS ReadersGuild offers an optional auto-renewing subscription that unlocks the full experience.

Readory is a beautifully crafted book tracker designed for readers who care about their reading life. Whether you read one book a month or one a week, Readory helps you build lasting reading habits, read together with friends, and capture every thought along the way. • Track Your Reading Journey Add books instantly by scanning barcodes, searching by title, or importing your Goodreads library. Track your reading status — Currently Reading, Want to Read, Finished, or Did Not Finish — and mark Want to Read books as Owned, Wishlist, or Preordered so you always know what's next to pick up. • Read Together — Book Club Start a book club or join one with a 6-letter invite code — joining is always free. Set a reading rhythm, share spoiler-safe notes that unlock as members catch up, and react to what others are reading. Join a live Silent Reading Room to read in comfortable silence alongside your club, see who's reading with you in real time, and rate the book together once everyone finishes. • Immersive Reading Timer Start a reading session with our focused timer. Choose from five ambient sounds — Rain, Fire, Café, Nature, or Library — to create your perfect reading atmosphere. When you're done, log your pages and see your progress update in real time. • Capture Every Thought Create highlights and personal notes as you read. Attach voice recordings to capture ideas hands-free, or photograph memorable pages. Your reading journal grows with every book. • Beautiful Stats & Achievements See your reading life come alive with detailed statistics — books finished, pages read, total reading time, and your best streak. Earn achievements like First Chapter, Flame Keeper, and Night Reader as you reach new milestones. • Live Activity Keep your reading session visible on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Always know how long you've been reading without opening the app. • Your Library, Always Organized Browse your collection in a beautiful grid view, or arrange it exactly how you like with manual drag-and-reorder. Create custom lists to organize books your way, add your own cover photos, filter by reading status, and search instantly — every book, every detail, right where you need it. • Reading Goals & Streaks Set an annual reading goal and track your progress throughout the year. Build a daily reading streak and stay motivated with milestone notifications that celebrate your consistency. • Goodreads Import Switching from another app? Import your entire Goodreads library in seconds via CSV export. Your books, ratings, and reading status come along for the ride. • Designed With Care Readory features a warm, editorial aesthetic inspired by the joy of physical books. Custom typography, hand-crafted illustrations, and a cream-toned palette create an experience that feels like home for book lovers. • Your Data, Your Reading Life Your personal library — books, notes, highlights, and reading sessions — stays private on your device. Book Club is opt-in and uses a secure server only to sync shared club activity like notes and live sessions. We ask for tracking permission per Apple's guidelines to help measure how our updates perform; you're always free to decline, and the app works exactly the same either way. Start your reading story today. Note: Readory offers premium subscription options for enhanced capabilities, including creating your own Book Club.
