Reading Queue Planner

Do you juggle a towering to-read pile with no idea what to tackle next — or when you'll actually finish what you've already started? Reading Queue Planner brings clarity to your reading life with smart pace-based estimates, a prioritized queue, and a real-time progress dashboard that keeps you motivated from page one to the final chapter.

HERO INTERACTION

Add any book in seconds: enter the title, author, total pages, and your current page. Set your personal reading pace in pages per hour and a daily page goal. The app instantly calculates how many hours remain and projects your finish date. As you log progress with one tap — +5, +15, or +30 pages — the estimate updates live so you always know exactly where you stand.

KEY FEATURES

• Real-time progress dashboard — circular progress wheel showing overall completion across your entire queue
• Smart finish-date estimator — calculates "Estimate Finish: Sep 15, 2026" style dates based on your actual pace
• Time remaining display — see "47h 23m remaining" at a glance across all active books
• Prioritized reading queue — Active, Queue, and Finished chips to organize every book by status
• Quick-log buttons — tap +5, +15, or +30 pages directly from the book card without opening a dialog
• Flexible book setup — fields for title, author, total pages, current page, pace, daily goal, and personal notes
• "Place in Queue" toggle — instantly slot a new book ahead of or behind your current read
• Global estimator defaults — set your default reading speed and daily goal once; they auto-populate every new book
• Per-book overrides — customize pace and goal on a book-by-book basis when your reading habits vary
• Active / Queue / Finished filters — find any book instantly without scrolling through a long flat list
• Empty-state guidance — friendly prompt and call-to-action when your queue is clear
• Fully offline — all data stays on your device; no internet connection required at any time

HOW IT WORKS

Open the app to see your reading dashboard: a circular progress wheel shows combined completion across active books, with a live time-remaining estimate and projected finish date below. Tap the "+" button to add a new book — fill in the details, set your pace and daily goal, then choose whether to place it at the top of your queue or at the end. Once added, your book card appears with a progress bar and quick-log buttons. Tap +5, +15, or +30 after each reading session to update your page count; the finish-date estimate recalculates instantly. Head to Settings to adjust your Global Estimator Defaults — reading speed and daily goal — so every new book you add inherits your preferred baseline automatically.

PERFECT FOR

• Voracious readers managing multiple books simultaneously
• Students tracking assigned reading with hard deadlines
• Book-club members who need to hit a chapter target by a specific date
• Anyone who wants to turn a vague "I should read more" intention into a concrete, trackable plan
• Readers who have abandoned books mid-way and want a guilt-free way to restart with a realistic finish date
