BookThread vs Booklore

Some books change you. Most of those moments slip away. BookThread is where you catch them — the quote that stopped you cold, the thought you had at 2am, the page you photographed because you couldn't put it into words. Every book gets its own thread, and every thread becomes something you'll actually want to revisit. Add thoughts as they hit you. Pull quotes with beautiful typographic formatting. Drop in photos of dog-eared pages, GIFs, or a quick post. Already read on Kindle? Import your highlights in one tap instead of retyping them. Track where you are with a simple reading status — TBR, Reading, On Hold, Completed, Dropped — right alongside your notes. Add a widget to your home screen and the next thought is one tap away, no need to even open the app first. Everything stays yours. No social feed, no algorithm, no audience — just a private, beautifully kept record of what you read and how it made you feel. Your books deserve more than a star rating and a forgotten shelf. They deserve a thread. Features: - Four entry types: Thought, Quote, Photo, Post - Add GIFs - Add tags and star ratings - Reading status tracking (TBR, Reading, On Hold, Completed, DNF) - Export thread as HTML file - Lock screen and Home screen widget for quick capture - Full iCloud sync across devices - Customisable fonts and dark mode - Private - your threads, no audience - Import Kindle highlights (Beta)
