## Description

Kitabi is a personal library for people who love owning books — a real
bookshelf, finally digital.

Track every book you own, remember who borrowed what, and watch your reading
life take shape. Free, private by default, and built with love for readers in
India and beyond.

YOUR LIBRARY, SHELF BY SHELF
• Add a book in seconds — scan the ISBN barcode, search the catalogue, or type
  it in
• Real editions, not just titles: photograph your own copy's front and back
  covers
• Shelves for Reading, Read, To read, Stopped and Wishlist — plus your own
  private tags
• Track progress page by page, with start and finish dates
• Malayalam, English and more — translations link back to the same work, so
  ഖസാക്കിന്റെ ഇതിഹാസം and its English edition sit side by side

LENDING — NEVER LOSE A BOOK AGAIN
• Lending is a record, not a memory: lent to whom, on which date, due when
• "Out now" and "Returned" at a glance, with a gentle nudge when a due date
  approaches
• Borrowed a book from a friend? Log that too, so it goes home on time

RATINGS, REVIEWS & PRIVATE NOTES
• Rate the books you finish and write reviews when you have something to say
• Personal notes stay on your copy — always private: the edition, the
  condition, why this copy matters

INSIGHTS
• A reading goal you set yourself, and an honest ring that shows the pace
• Books per month, pages per month, and the languages you read in

OFFLINE-FIRST
• Your whole library lives on your phone and works in airplane mode — it syncs
  quietly when you're back online

MOVING IN?
• Import your Goodreads library from a CSV export in minutes

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
• Your library is yours. Nothing is public unless you choose to share it, and
  there are no ads.
