読んでいる本の内容を自分なりに記録していくアプリです。読み終わったあとに本から得られたことを忘れないように身につけるために活用できます。 「あの本、読んだけど何が書いてあったか忘れちゃった...」や「この本の内容を自分でまとめ直したい」ということがあり、このアプリを作成しました。もしそんな状況に遭遇することがあれば、お使いください。 【基本的な機能】 ・タブで本をジャンル(任意のテーマ)ごとに管理 ・本のタイトル、表紙画像、合計ページ数を登録 ・各本ごとに日記のように記録(ログ)を追加可能 ・本を作成日 / タイトルなどでソート可能 ・本の簡単な検索 今後のアップデートでより使いやすくなるよう改善していく予定です。
