So Confused, Genuinely
Tell me how the app sent me a notification, knowing I had just read for 13 minutes, without me tracking it, or even opening the app?

Best App to Track Books
Best app to track books! For me the aesthetics, the functionality, the organization and ease of access are important to me, and this apps ticks all boxes.
Some bugs, but still worth it I think
I currently give the app somewhere between a 3-4 star rating because of the handful of small bugs I’ve encountered (bug free it would be 5 star, even if it is a bit pricey). Why it’s worth it: The review capabilities of the app are phenomenal. Unlike some apps that give little to no formatting options in the book notes section, this app has far more formatting options than any other book tracking app I’ve seen and allows you to review your notes from a specific book easily. I love an organized review system and this one is top notch. Bugs: I have encountered a few small bugs that are annoying but not hugely problematic. A couple examples are 1 book that I input that refuses to be sorted by the author’s last name no matter how I type it (the last name starts with S but the book will not leave the B’s) and 3 books that will not leave my wishlist (apart from deleting them but I don’t want to lose my notes) no matter how I change their status. Annoying but not significantly inhibiting in any way.
Goodreads sync bug
Can’t even use the app cause when I try to upload my book list to the app it just loads forever then gives me the white screen of death. It’s likely cause I have 2000 books in my reading list on goodreads but still this app should be able to handle it. I have to delete and redownload for the app to work again but no matter what, my file won’t upload. 1 star until the app developer fixes this because it makes the app useless if I can’t use it. Replicate the bug by uploading a large file from goodreads and you’ll see it’s a problem. I’ll update my rating after this is fixed
Good app with minor issues
This app is a very good virtual library. But it is not a good tracker. First of all, it’s very expensive if you want to use it for tracking. But as a library, it organizes the books nicely with the categories. However, there are many metadata issues and bugs that makes it incorrectly organized.
Don’t use this app!
It’s been 3 years with bookshelf. My phone messed up and I lost my app and there is no way to log in. Everything for 3 years is GONE! Don’t use this because you can get your lost data.
Love this app!
I use this more than any of the other trackers. This one pulled me in for sure. It’s simple and cleanly designed. One request I have for you to maybe work on it—-I would LOVE to be able to quickly pause and unpause my session from my Apple Watch!!! Sometimes the phone is somewhere else outta reach or charging but watch is always on me. Please please get us on the Apple Watch!!
Smartapp
I love apps that help me organize and make me smarter. Thank you Bookshelf!
Free version too limited
Needs to allow more than 3 reading sessions per week for the free version. That’s kind of a crazy limitation for such a basic feature of a reading tracker.
a lot of bugs introduced in the last update
The last update introduced a slew of bugs to the reading mode, hoping they get ironed out.
