4/5cant get in :(
i saw this on pinterest and was super excited to use it but i cant even get in 😭 i connected all my accounts and everything but once i got to the share contacts screen the share all button wouldnt work, and the select contacts button was gray. the screen wasnt frozen bc i could still tap the “why” button. after refreshing over and over and even deleting and redownloading the app a couple times, it finally let me move on. i didnt want to share all my contacts at first but then since i couldnt press the other one i decided to js share all. then i pressed select contacts and it opened my contacts so i added one, but then it just brought me back to the screen i was stuck on before and i havent been able to move on since :(( i really hope i can figure out whats wrong bc this app genuinely looks really fun but i cant even create my account D:

5/5The BEST app for sharing music taste
Not only is the community surrounding this app positive and uplifting, but the app itself scratches an itch I didn’t know I had. You can share what you’re watching, streaming, reading and playing, and Shelf keeps track of it for you! I love the customization options and hope there will be more color schemes and features in the future! This app is really taking off and so many of my friends and I use it to keep up with what each other are up to based on the media we are consuming. It’s so fun to scroll and see what my friends are streaming and react with emojis! I log into my Shelf every day at least once or twice to update what I’m into or what artist I’m obsessively streaming. I am so grateful for the community that this app has created. I can’t wait to see what else is in store for Shelf!

5/5the life of a shelf girl💜
shelf is THE app to track all of the media you consume and easily share it with all of your mutuals! you can add media from anywhere by copying and pasting a link, connecting your favorite platforms, or searching for a title. sharing thoughts has never been easier with the ability to rate things out of five s and reacting with emojis! the app also lets you seamlessly share to your instagram or snapchat story, which is useful for sharing the media you’ve consumed with other mutuals who need to discover shelf. the only thing that could make this whole experience so much more fun is the addition of color themes that change the whole vibe of your shelf— which there are! shelf is the app everyone’s talking about, and you need to get it like october 3 needs to come quicker‼️❤️🔥

5/5I Love This App
I’ve personally always had an interest in statistics and being able to see personalized analytics delivered to me in a fun manner is something I find very intriguing. I’ve never had an issue with Shelf, and I find it nice to have a customizable area to show off my music taste. I also love the weekly recap feature, it’s able to give me periodic check-ins on my music taste and it’s cool that it allows me to see how it has evolved over time. Also, although I don’t use it, I like how you’re able to show off TV shows, movies, books, games, and more on your Shelf as well. Overall, I’d highly recommend this app if you’re interested in data and/or if you want to show off what cool things keep you entertained.

3/5Great Concept
I legit NEVER write reviews but the concept of this app is so cool I have to give feedback. My first issue with the app is that the tracking data is inaccurate. Realistically, not on the developers at all because most streaming data is like that, but mildly frustrating. Another thing is the lack of engagement. I was initially excited for something more toned down, because nowadays most social apps are all about interacting with other people that it almost feels forced upon you. But now after using it for a couple of weeks, it feels almost isolating and makes it so there’s no reason for me to load into the app. Partially on me, because I have been unable to get any family/friends to download. Once again though, the idea is GREAT. Can’t wait to see the evolution of the app. This is one that I’ll delete and redownload months to a year from now and be shocked how much it’s grown. Keep going!

2.0
A BRAND NEW LOOK, BUILT FOR YOUR TASTE Shelf 2.0 is here - a full overhaul of how Shelf looks and feels. With new typography, a more expressive color system, and themes that actually reflect you. Everything is more intentional from now on - from the way your library reads to how your identity shows up across the app. ... and we didn’t stop there: – your library tells you what’s changed (and now when) – Shelf adapts as it learns your taste - so less confusing defaults – you’re always visible in context, not lost in leaderboard rankings – sharper visuals and a smoother onboarding from the first tap

2.0.1
We made a few updates to our app: * Widget "You" option — if you ever set a Shelf widget to show a friend's library, you can now flip it back to your own without removing and re-adding the widget. * Edit your username from your profile — changing your handle is now a one-tap field in Edit Profile (with live validation so you know if it's available).

2.0.10
We made a few things easier this update. Tap **+ Add to Shelf** and items now appear instantly — with a one-tap **UNDO** if you change your mind. Your **Flux micro-apps** also remember their last result — reopening one picks up right where you left off. And if you've fallen behind on *Shelf* updates, we'll give you a gentle nudge at launch so you don't miss out on the latest improvements.

2.0.11
If a friend sends you a *Flux* micro-app link and your version of *Shelf* can't open it, we now show a clean prompt to update so you can. Apps that need a newer version of *Shelf* are also tidied out of your Flux directory until you update — no more broken screens or confusing dead taps.

Search just got a serious glow-up. The new full-screen Search experience starts with trending searches when it's empty, gives you a redesigned filter bar to narrow by type at a glance, and shows clearer empty + no-results states. We also refreshed Media Detail pages with a new *Updated X ago* label on the leaderboard, a segmented filter to slice it, and polished layout for long album and movie titles. If you've connected YouTube Music, song pages now have a one-tap link to open the song in YT Music. We never stop making bug fixes and small improvements to the app. See anything weird?

2.0.9
We slimmed Flux down to the things you actually use — bigger and better-designed micro-app cards with cover images, and a tighter Weekly Recap. **Search and Add to Shelf** got a redesign too, with a friendly UNDO button if you tap by mistake. And the **Library** is more polished: empty categories now help you fill them in place instead of bouncing you elsewhere, every category screen has a **+** button for adding new things, and music categories get an inline filter to slice by Recently Listened / Last 7 Days / Last 30 Days.
