읽고 싶은 나에서 읽고 있는 나로, 매주 30분 리커버러와 함께 책을 펼쳐보세요. 독서하는 삶, 리커버러와 함께 만들어가세요. 나만의 속도로, 때로는 친구와 함께. 독서는 원래 어렵습니다. 숏폼에 익숙해진 시대에는 특히 더 어렵습니다. 그래서 우리는 독서를 쉽게 만들지 않습니다. 다만, "책을 펼칠 수 있게" 만듭니다. ■ 탭 한 번으로 시작하는 독서 - 시작이 단순해야 계속해서 읽을 수 있으니까 - 몇 페이지를 읽었는지가 아니라, 책 앞에 머문 시간을 기록합니다. - 10분이라도 괜찮아요. 결과보다 노력한 시간에 가치를 둡니다. ■ 친구와 함께하는 독서 챌린지 - 2인~4인의 파티를 구성해, 4주간 진행되는 독서 챌린지에 도전해보세요. - 매주 30분 이상 독서하면 그 주는 성공. 파티원 모두가 함께 달성해야 합니다. - 혼자 읽기 힘든 독서를, 같이 하는 힘으로 이어갑니다. ■ 배지와 리커버러 마크 - 매주 30분을 채우면 "주간 배지"를 획득합니다. - 챌린지를 완주하면 함께한 친구의 이름이 새겨진 "챌린지 배지"를 획득합니다. - 배지를 꾸준히 모으면 연말에 "올해의 독서가" 마크를 획득할 수 있습니다. ■ 나만의 독서 리듬 - 나의 독서를 눈으로 확인해보세요. - 어느 요일, 어떤 시간대에 가장 잘 읽는지 한눈에 볼 수 있습니다. - 기록을 위한 차트가 아니라, 나를 이해하기 위한 거울입니다. ■ 우리가 하지 않는 것 - 연속 일수도, 랭킹도, 완독률도 없습니다. - 앱 안에 오래 머물도록 잡아두지 않습니다. - AI가 대신 요약하거나 생각하지 않습니다. 지금, 첫 페이지를 펼쳐보세요. ※ 접근 권한 안내 - 카메라/갤러리 (선택): 프로필 사진 설정 및 ISBN스캔에 사용 - 알림 (선택): 챌린지 알림, 친구 요청 알림 수신 - 선택 권한을 허용하지 않아도 기본 기능을 이용할 수 있습니다. 웹사이트: https://recoverer.kr/ 이메일: contact@recoverer.kr 개인정보처리방침: https://recoverer.kr/privacy 이용약관: https://recoverer.kr/terms 문의: https://recoverer.kr/contact
