Shelfy turns reading into a cozy daily ritual — a beautiful private library, a focused reading timer with soundscapes, and the quotes and ideas you'll actually keep. "It just feels good to use. I catch myself opening the app instead of Instagram." — Kim T. "The shelves are so cute and customizable. Worth the annual fee." — MamaMaestraKP — YOUR PRIVATE LIBRARY — Add books by search, barcode, or photo of the cover.

Track time and pages without breaking flow. Pause when life happens, pick up where you left off. — CAPTURE WHAT YOU LOVE — Snap a page and Shelfy turns it into a clean text quote.

Beautiful -- Shanetvcam, 2026-10-01 ### ***-- "Paid" I get it. The team needs paid. This app isn’t for me and I’ll just use a different one that gives you a free tier. My complaint is I just wish apps were more upfront about it. Saw this in an ad and it wasn’t mentioned that you can’t try it without agreeing to a subscription after a trial. I would like to poke around without signing up for anything. My recommendation is giving everyone one book to try for free to see if they enjoy it and be upfront about it and I think you’d get more people signing up if they got to try without signing up. I just don’t use apps like that, because I’m always forgetting to cancel. Looks like a great app, though. Maybe one day when we aren’t all being stretched thin financially. If I ever get some extra spending money again, I’ll put this on my list of things to look into. -- ~.*•. sk .•*.~, 2026-09-27 ### *---- "Locked behind a paywall" Not even an option of anything free you HAVE to subscribe to use this app at all. -- Babs Leigh, 2026-09-27 ### *---- "Pay wall" You get stuck behind a paywall and can’t use the app without paying. -- TJ Somers, 2026-09-23 ### ***** "The Perfect Book Tracker" I’ve tried so many book tracker apps, and Shelfy is hands down my favorite. You can customize the wood on your shelves and the background, add photos from your camera roll to picture frames, and even make your own shelf decor with your photos. I love that I can track how I read or listened to a book, whether I own it, and rate things like spice and tension. They’re always adding and improving features, too. It does everything I’ve wanted a book tracker to do, and making my shelves look like my shelves is half the fun! -- amariev1382, 2026-09-23 ### *---- "Can’t even TRY it without agreeing to a 3 day trial" There is no free option. You have to agree to a meager 3 day trial option to even see what this app is about before your charged. You can’t even look into the app to get an idea of what you’re getting before they are trying to lock you into a trial. I hate when companies do this. It’s an immediate delete for me -- AlekonaKini, 2026-09-17 ### *---- "Misleading" You have to immediately purchase or begin a “free trial” before you can even really use the app. There’s so many covers for books unavailable or “unknown” that you have to either upload or create yourself. I thought this would be such a cute way to track my reads and visualize it but it’s just not what it seems nor is it worth the money. From a fellow book girly, don’t waste your time or money <3 -- amandajeannes, 2026-09-16 ### *---- "paywall" disappointed :/ you can’t use it without paying! you HAVE to pay to use the app at all. i was looking forward to this but it isn’t fair to expect someone to pay to use your app without any other options for restrictions or something. -- peepmyweave, 2026-09-14 ### *---- "Greedy" Unfortunately you cannot access this app without paying some type of membership. I did the 3-free day trial and I will not be purchasing the subscription because it makes no sense you cannot access many of these features without some form of payment. The app is just like any other free-version book app and there is no point in paying when the shelf’s are neither aesthetic nor worth the money. Most of the books you have to upload your own spines to make it look aesthetically pleasing and that’s even with the classics and more famous books I have on my already read list. I wish people would stop being money hungry by trying to normalize non-pay worthy features. -- Daisha. M, 2026-09-13 ### **--- "Cute Idea, but not for me" I think this is a really cute idea, but asking a subscription fee for such an unpolished app is kinda crazy. -- FrauMcLeod, 2026-09-12 ### ****- "Beautiful app!" I love this app and how it helps me have focused reading time, plus looks beautiful. I have noticed however that it’s a little glitchy/lagging at times. This may be due to the large amount of books on my shelves though 😬 -- Codidawn, 2026-09-12 ### *---- "paywall" i was looking forward to this app because it looks like a fun way to track books. however, you have to pay a premium for access after the 3 day free trial. not worth it. sticking to good reads -- jakej27283, 2026-09-09 ### ***** "The best" Other than the aesthetics of the app itself my favorite thing is the constant updates and every time I open the app there seems to be a new feature. -- Gravy_fingaz, 2026-09-07 ### ***** "Phenomenal" I rarely write reviews, but I have to. This app is incredible. It combines my favorite things, reading and trackers. Currently ive been recovering from surgery and without a job, that means a Ton of free time, to do anything. Honestly, I say get the app, You get a cute bookshelf, you can track your owned, want to own, borrowed, to reads, have finished, did not finishs, all of it, you get to know how long you spend reading, your page per hour average, the amount of pages youve read in total. And thats just some of what exists now! The creators are constantly taking time to update it based on what people suggest, in the app theres a way to leave a suggestion, you can also email them directly, and they actually listen! If theres a bug, they listen! Ive used so many apps and played so many games where creators will just abandon the project seemingly, or at least dont bother to listen to their community, this app is not one of those. They LISTEN. If youre on the fence, GET IT, besides you can cancel any time, id say its worth to at least test it out for a month, but i think youll find you want it forever. -- Death_AngelYT, 2026-09-06 ### **--- "disappointed" i kept seeing ads for this app so i thought i would give it a try but i was immediately disappointed. You can’t even check out the app before it wants you to subscribe and you have to subscribe to use the app. I would understand if you have to pay to add so many books like Bookly but you can’t even decide you like the app before it wants you to subscribe. -- finniej, 2026-09-04 ### ***** "Amazing" I’m just amazed with this app. My inner organiser makes me spend a lot of time building my shelf. Now it’s perfect! -- Janine-books, 2026-09-02 ### ***** "AMAZING" This was awesome they took my suggestion and created a way for everyone to add their Kindle books. They actually listen to their users I. Everything about this app is amazing and I definitely blows the others out of the water. -- TripleD802$, 2026-08-31 ### *---- "Not Free" The premise of this got me super interested, but I’m super disappointed that I just tried to use the app and it locks the whole thing down unless I agree to a 3 day trial or an annual subscription. Definitely not going to do that when I barely even know what the app can do. -- Samamfa's iPod, 2026-08-30 ### *---- "Zero Stars" I should’ve read the reviews as well. The trial period for this app functions differently than other apps, if you don’t pay close attention to wording, canceling on the third day of the 3 day trial somehow still gets you charged. Either way, neither Shelfy or Apple were willing to help, despite trying to clear up the matter immediately. I was charged for a full year with no assistance despite escalating the dispute. -- Sequoia909, 2026-08-27 [View all Shelfy reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Shelfy In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Yearly subscription | $44.99 | | Weekly subscription | $4.99 | ## Shelfy Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Grossing | United States | Books | #37 | | Top Free | United States | Books | #41 | | Top Free | Belarus | Books | #202 | ## Shelfy Available In - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/united-states) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/canada) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/united-kingdom) - [Netherlands](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/netherlands) - [Germany](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/germany) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/spain) - [Bulgaria](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/bulgaria) - [Brazil](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/brazil) - [Botswana](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/botswana) - [Switzerland](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/switzerland) - [Chile](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/chile) - [Finland](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/finland) - [Ghana](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/ghana) - [Guyana](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/guyana) - [Honduras](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/honduras) - [Croatia](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/croatia) - [Iceland](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/iceland) - [Jordan](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/jordan) - [Kenya](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/kenya) - [Kuwait](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/kuwait) - [Sri Lanka](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/sri-lanka) - [Lithuania](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/lithuania) - [Luxembourg](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/luxembourg) - [Macao SAR China](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/macau) - [Nicaragua](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/nicaragua) - [Norway](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/norway) - [Oman](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/oman) - [Philippines](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/philippines) - [Pakistan](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/pakistan) - [Paraguay](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/paraguay) - [Sweden](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/sweden) - [Singapore](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/singapore) - [Slovakia](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/slovakia) - [Senegal](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/senegal) - [Suriname](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/suriname) - [El Salvador](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/el-salvador) - [Tunisia](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/tunisia) - [Uganda](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/uganda) - [Uruguay](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/uruguay) - [Uzbekistan](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/uzbekistan) - [Venezuela](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/venezuela) - [British Virgin Islands](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/british-virgin-islands) - [Armenia](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/armenia) - [Vietnam](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/vietnam) - [Angola](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/angola) - [Austria](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/austria) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/australia) - [Barbados](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/barbados) - [Belgium](https://apptail.io/app/shelfy-book-tracker-tbr-ZBMx/belgium) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
