Readimo makes book tracking social. Every book you read, every minute you spend in it, and every friend who reads with you, in one place. Here's how: • Time every session: tap Start when you open your book. Readimo counts your minutes, pages and pace, and keeps running on your Lock Screen. • Track every book: Reading, To Read, Finished, Wishlist and Did Not Finish, on a shelf you design, from Oak and Walnut to Glass. • Add books in seconds: scan a barcode, snap a cover, or bring your whole library over from Goodreads, StoryGraph or Fable. • Build the habit: set your book goal for the year, then keep your streak alive, week after week. • See your reading life: every month as a calendar of the covers you read, with stats for your month, your year and all time. • Read with friends: follow readers, see their sessions in your feed, get motivation from your people, and cheer them on with kudos and comments. • Rate and review: share what you thought of every book you finish, with spoilers hidden until a reader chooses to see them. • Keep the moment: add a photo, a short video or a favorite line to any session. • Share your progress: post a session or a finished book straight to your Instagram Story. • Make it yours: put your five favorite books on your profile, go private anytime, and keep any session just for you.
