Your private study, in your pocket. Shelfieline is an iPhone / iPad app that turns reading from a list-management chore into a personal experience. We've recreated a real bookshelf in digital form — spine textures, varying book heights, the heft of the shelf itself. The dark, "private den" aesthetic is built for readers who care about how their library looks. ▼ Key Features 【Study】Your bookshelves side by side. Swipe to switch; neighboring shelves peek in from both sides. On iPad the shelves fill the screen. 【Bookshelf】Your books as realistic spines. Pinch to zoom and the rows rearrange themselves.
