## Review summary

Basmo offers solid reading-tracking and a simple interface, plus useful notes and timed sessions. However, recurring issues include weak book management (no add/edit, cover issues), paywalls and monetization concerns, buggy Android behavior, and missing features like per-page progress and tags. These core gaps keep it from reaching its potential despite strong tracking capabilities.

### Pros

- Robust tracking of reading activity (time spent, books read) with goals and statistics.
- Simple, easy-to-use and straightforward interface.
- Focus-friendly features including notes and timed reading sessions.
- Supports yearly reading goals and general progress overview.

### Cons

- Weak book management: cannot add or edit books, and manual entry is unreliable.
- Cover/photo upload issues and permission prompts prevent adding book covers.
- Paywall and monetization concerns: many features require payment and some reviews claim data collection.
- Android experience is buggy and less polished than iOS, with updates slow or missing.
- Missing essential features like per-page/percentage progress and tags.
