User Reviews

Pros

The concept of tracking books read before kindergarten is appreciated.
The app allows scanning of books for easy addition to a library.
It's a free option for tracking reading, which some users find better than paper logs.

Cons

The app is very slow and often crashes.
Adding books is a cumbersome process with too many steps.
Many users report that there is insufficient functionality, such as not being able to edit entries or add multiple books at once.

Recent reviews

Love the concept, but not the experience. If searching for a book and then needing to add manually, should maintain the title entered. Adding photo for book is spotty. Should also be able to add details after a book has been manually added eg photo or number of pages. Book search generally not successful if there is a space after the last word in the title.

Love the program, the app needs a LOT of work. Asside from the fact that it's slow to load and crashes a lot it's a lot of steps to deal with. I like the concept of the 'library' but I would love to see a progress selection for longer/# in 1 books and a way to track how many times a book as been read. It would also be very nice to be able to click finished reading when you scan a new book in. My child loves story's and will go thru 3-5 a night then we scan after reading so I takes lots of time

I LOVE this concept. My kiddos are currently almost 3 and just turned 1 and they both are obsessed with books. And I really *want* to love this app. But it is SO not user friendly. I think my main issue is that there is not a way to select multiple books to add to the reading list. If this was possible, that would make such a difference in user experience. Overall the app is delayed and clunky. I'm keeping it because it is my only option besides a physical notebook. But please update 🙏🏼😩
