Dust Jacket vs My Library

Dust Jacket is the book tracking app for readers who take their reading life seriously. Your complete library, always with you. Log what you're reading, track what you've finished, and keep everything you want to read next in one beautiful place. Dust Jacket is built around the way real readers actually read — in series, across genres, with stats that mean something. See your annual reading count and pace at a glance. Explore your genre breakdown over time. Discover your most-read authors. Track the gender of the protagonists you gravitate toward. Every book you've ever read, every book you want to read next, all in one place. A reading tracker that gets out of the way. Log a book in seconds. Search by title or author, tap to select, and you're done. No friction, no clutter, no social feed demanding your attention. Just your books. Your library, beautifully organized. Filter by status, sort by date, search across your entire history including notes and series. Every book exactly where you expect it. Stats that actually matter. Annual reading counts. Genre breakdowns. Author diversity. Protagonist gender. Most-read authors and series. The numbers behind your reading life, surfaced simply. Completely private. No social features. No algorithm. No ads. Just you and your books.

Your entire bookshelf in your pocket. My Library makes cataloging your books a pleasure: point the camera at a book's barcode — one beep, and it's in. Title, author, cover and page count are filled in automatically. No barcode? Search by title, or add it by hand with a photo of the cover. TRACK YOUR READING • Start and finish books with one tap, and see how long each one took • Set the page you're on and watch the progress bar move • See what percentage of your library you've read, and how long it'll take to read it all A SHELF THAT FILLS WITH COLOR Your books appear as spines on a virtual shelf. Unread books stay gray; every book you finish adds color. Share your shelf as an image with one tap. COLLECTIONS Group your books by author and series. See what percentage of an author's best-known works you own, and which volumes are still missing from a series. KEEP THE PASSAGES YOU LOVE Photograph a page and the text is extracted automatically. Crop it to the quote you want, add the page number, done. Mark the best ones to memorize and review them in their own tab. SMART STATS Charts of books and pages finished per week, month or year. Average time per book, time per 1,000 pages, reading speed, top authors, books by genre — and an estimate of how long your whole library will take. YOURS, TRULY No account. No cloud. No subscription. Your library lives on your iPhone, and you can export it to a file anytime for backup. The free version holds 50 books — a single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited.
