TACET is a clean and simple reading tracker. It brings back what reading used to feel like — focused, immersive, uninterrupted. Fade into the story.
 A soft, ambient glow — drawn from your book's cover — surrounds your reading. The interface disappears. The story remains. Your library. No noise. No social feeds or endless scrolling.
 Only the books you choose. Words worth keeping. 
Save the lines that mattered. A quiet collection of quotes, book by book. Every book has its moment.
 See your reading mapped across days and months — a private record of where your attention went. Time regained. Record of a quality time well spent. A quiet presence on your home screen.
 Add the TACET widget, and keep your current book always within a reach. Use all type of live activities to see your session progress on lock screen and dynamic island. Your data belongs to you. Completely. Import your library from any source (Goodreads, Storygraph, etc.) which let you take CSV file, export at any moment, or delete your data anytime.
 No lock-in. No hidden rules. No compromises. Take your attention back. Step into the silence.
