    I just eagerly updated in hopes of using this app again. Unfortunately, it continues to lock up when selecting the magnifying glass so it’s still not really a working app.
  • It’s fine

    To be honest there’s no point in downloading unless you’re planning to pay for practically everything. Still good for tracking books you’ve read and what not. Just rlly expensive to use all the cool features.

    I’ve been obsessed with this app and paying for premium for a few years now, but recently, something has changed. My reading sessions never seem to save correctly, consistently disappear, and often books have comical numbers associated with them (200 hours long? When it’s actually only 8 hours long?). As someone who chose this app for its data capabilities and lean UI, seeing the functionality degrade is making me shop around for other options. Such a bummer because I have literal hundreds of books logged in this app.

    I am really enjoying this app, I paid for the gold version. But one feature I wish it had was that when I’m in my library and I don’t feel like scrolling to find a book. I wish I could just search for the book. When I do a regular search for a book, it thinks I want to add that book to my library. I would just like to be able to find the book that’s already in my library quicker!!
  • App is good, but…

    I like the app. I’ve used it since the start of the year. I got a discount for an annual subscription for $5 and so I figured at that price I might as well get the app. At first it was great. The UI is decent. Although a few of the decisions are weird. Like why is settings in stats? And why do I have to pause and finish tracking to discard it? Anyways, the tracking is nice and I enjoyed using it. Then after a few months, the app started getting buggy. Sometimes I would track on the app and when I pressed done, the tracking timer would reappear. So I’d have to do it again. Sometimes, the app would just plain delete one of my tracking entries. Lately, I’ve had to close the app and reopen it to even get the tracking to complete. All that is annoying but bugs are inevitable, I get it. I’m a developer myself. However, upon reaching out to the dev (multiple times) in order to report on these bugs and give him evidence and clips so that the dev could work on it, I got nothing. No response. I think I reached out 3 times about all those issues with nothing. When the bug is with one of your main app features, I feel like that should be a priority. At the very least respond in order to reassure the user that the bug is being worked on. In any case, I’m moving on to a different app. Was good until all the bugs starting showing up.
  • Minimalist style and easy book tracking—that’s all I need.

    The simplicity is what drew me toward this book tracker and it does what I want well. Most bugs I had issues with have been fixed in an update, and the app works fine now! Excited to see upcoming features.
  • Decent app

    I like the app a lot, I like how it tracks everything, I just hate that you only get three reading sessions a week. I don’t want to have to be a pro and pay for it just to track my reading. I understand why they make you pay for it, I just wish they didn’t. That’s my only problem with it.
  • So many bugs

    Beautiful and clever app. However, the bugs make it quite difficult to use. Stats showing up incorrectly, reading sessions not logging, imports not coming in right. There are a surprising number of issues. I hope these can be fixed so it can become a five star app!
  • Not so great anymore

    I’ve been using this app for more than a year now and I used to love it, I really did, but now it’s plagued with very annoying bugs (that I’ve reported), the developer isn’t as responsive as they initially were, yet keeps updating the app with things that, albeit useful, do not improve over the worn-out UX. A shame, really.
  • Finally a Great Reading App!

    I have been searching for a good reading tracking app for a long time and I am absolutely blown away by this app. I just finished my first book using it and I love how it’s motivating me to read more and the UI is simple and great. I know the app is still in development, has a few hiccups, and I would like a few other things such as a rating system after finishing a book and more comprehensive note taking for books such as a reading journal experience. I’m optimistic this app will become more and more robust over time and I will continue to support via subscription because I have a lot of confidence in it. Thanks for the great app!
