  1. 5/5Best off-line reading tracker

    I was looking for a simple, off-line reading tracker, and this is absolutely the best on the market. Everything is stored locally, including your personal reviews. However, you can look up books and it gives you ratings from larger online websites which is extremely helpful. I love that it fills in a little picture of the book that I read on each calendar day! I have only two “complaints”, though they are not terribly frustrating. The first is that the calendar has every day start on the first day (visually Sunday), instead of following a normal Sunday through Saturday approach. The second is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to back up or import your data from the app. I would love to back this up in like a physical file in my files on my phone. But overall, very minor gripes for what is possibly my favorite app on my phone.

  2. 5/5Love this app

    This app is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to add books, see your collection, and track progress on multiple books you’re reading at the same time. I love the no-frills approach, and it’s obvious the developer cares about the utility and functionality of it. The ability to quickly add books using the ISBN is perfect, and it’s a really nice and flexible feature that you can also put a custom book cover as the thumbnail for each book. I also really like that you can see your reading session history and your reading speed. It just seems like everything you’d want is in one place and it’s done in a really user-friendly way. Keep up the great work! I’ve been recommending this app to lots of people!

  3. 5/5Best tracking app

    This app is so perfect! It has everything I use to track my reading all in one place, including time spent reading, pages read, even an option to add quotes or vocab from the book! I love the feature that calculates reading speed and how much of the book is left, that has been helpful for me to reach my reading goals. Overall, an amazing free app with no adds :)

  4. 5/5Features

    Liking the app, so far. It’s full of great features. Suggestion: if there is a way to separate the library by books I’m currently reading versus books “to be read” or a wishlist for future book reads, that would be great.

  5. 5/5Really good and well designed app

    Has every thing I was expecting from a book tracking app. No login or purchases needed, just a simple book tracker with live activities. Thanks for making this
