Casebound vs Tibby

For serious readers and library builders. People with real shelves who want to know exactly what they own, track their reading honestly, and enjoy the collection they have built. LIBRARY AND LISTS, FINALLY SEPARATE Most book apps blend your shelves, your reading state, and your custom lists into one jumble. When you own 500 books across overlapping shelves, you cannot cleanly answer "what do I actually own?" Casebound keeps your library, a real catalogue with ownership, format, and reading status, separate from your lists, which are tags you layer on top. A book lives in your library once. Lists are zero or many tags applied to it. ONE BOOK, EVERY FORMAT Own the hardcover. Listening to the audiobook. Halfway through the Kindle. That is one library entry with three format records, each tracked separately. Ownership lives on the format, so you can own the hardcover and borrow the audiobook from the library. Stats stay honest: hours for audio, pages for physical, locations or percent for ebooks. No lossy conversion between them. Books finished counts any format. A SHELF WORTH SHOWING Your library is not just a spreadsheet. Arrange it on a real bookshelf, in a floating or framed case, with spine widths that scale to actual page counts. Stack books the way you do at home. Photograph your real spines and see them on the shelf. Earn decor as you read and place it where you like. SESSIONS THAT COUNT Track reading time and pages session by session. Pause, resume, or log a session you forgot to start. See weekly, monthly, yearly, and lifetime stats, plus a reading calendar built from your book covers and a year in review when the year closes. Goals are measured in pages and time, never in book counts. CAPTURE A LIBRARY FAST Scan a barcode and Casebound looks up the metadata automatically. Point the camera at a cover when there is no barcode. Pair a Bluetooth scanner and add a whole shelf in one sitting. Quick add drops a book in with a single tap. Found a wrong page count? Fix it once and the correction improves the shared record for everyone. READ WITH OTHER PEOPLE, OR DO NOT Follow readers whose taste you trust and see what they are finishing. Rate and review books, and read reviews from everyone else. Start or join a book club with real discussion threads. Lend a book and track who has it and how far along they are. Send a book straight to a friend when you know it is for them. None of it is mandatory. Privacy is per book, there is no public profile by default, and you decide what, if anything, is visible. FREE IS USEFUL. PRO IS POWER. Free includes your unlimited library on every device you sign in on, session tracking, streaks and goals, ISBN and cover scanning, reviews, following, lending, friend recommendations, import and export, per-book privacy, and up to 5 custom lists. Pro ($4.99/month or $29.99/year) unlocks unlimited custom lists, advanced stats and insights, unlimited book clubs, the customizable bookshelf, and the Sepia theme. OPINIONATED Casebound measures reading in pages and hours, not in books finished, because book-count goals quietly push people toward shorter books. Your library and your lists stay separate structures, because collapsing them is what broke every app that came before. If those choices are not for you, this is not the right app, and that is okay.

A book tracker built around your own bookshelf, with a ginger tabby called Tibby. Scan your shelf, check the matches, and your books land in the order they stand. Then arrange them by hand: lean one, stack a few, leave a gap. Tibby welcomes you and helps you set up your shelf. Add books your way: Scan Your Shelf for a whole row at once, Scan Barcode for one book after another, Search by title, author or ISBN and pick the edition, Say Titles to read out a list, or Type a Book. After a shelf scan you check the matches against your own spines, cut from the photo in the order they stand, then they go straight onto the shelf. Coming from another app? Bring your library over from an export file or a spreadsheet, or share a book's link to Tibby. Pick a scene, or choose the wall, the shelves and the decorations yourself, including your own photos. Keep more than one bookcase, and see your books as a shelf, a list or a grid. Keep track of your reading. Time a reading session in a calm scene made from your shelf's look, with your book under a warm lamp. When you finish, your streak catches, your pages count up and your book fills in on your goal. Or update your page, or tap I Read Today. Set a goal for the next 12 months and keep a streak: one missed day won't break it. A daily reminder comes at the time you choose. In Tibby's Picks, swipe through books Tibby picks for you and save the ones you want to read. The You tab shows your reading by week, month, year and all time: time, pages, books finished, and the books you own against the ones you've read. Each month is a calendar of covers, one for every day you read. Share a picture of your shelf in story, square or wallpaper size, and keep a bookcase on your Home Screen with the widget, in small, medium or large. Tibby works on iPhone and iPad. There's no account to make: your library is saved on your device, and you can export it or save a backup. When you scan a shelf or say titles, an AI service reads the titles from your photo or recording, only if you agree. Your first books go on your shelf before you choose a plan. Full access needs Tibby Pro, a weekly, monthly or yearly subscription. It covers adding more books, arranging the shelf, every look and decoration, more bookcases, importing a library, logging your reading, your goal and saving books from Tibby's Picks. The price and renewal terms show before you buy, and you can cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.
