Bookmory - reading tracker Reviews

by Wym109823

I was going to try using this, but unfortunately I couldn’t get the import function to work. I tried multiple times, but it keeps telling me my file format is not in csv so I can’t import. I exported my library from GR, but I have an iPhone and the attachment keeps opening as a text file. If Bookmory had a desktop version that we could access from a regular computer (like both GR and Storygraph do), then the transfer can be easily done from there without the hassle of wasting time trying to convert it on iPhone.. As it stands right now, Bookmory is useless to me, as I already have hundreds of books and reviews on the other sites and have no desire to start all over again from scratch. Deleting it now…

Downloaded because a friend posted their cute book tracking calendar for a month and I was interested! However, nothing is really available without watching ads or paying for premium. Most apps have a week or few weeks trial to get a feel for what it is like but this is just…bare bones nothing. No tutorial, barely anything to trial. Even the color themes, i went to preview them and i tapped on that *did not* have the lock symbol on it (there’s only 4) and it STILL put a pop up asking me to watch ads or pay for premium to even see it. Just a bit too much for a very very basic book tracker. Would be much more willing to purchase premium if a less ridiculously small amt was available when you first download. Literally any other book app has more. Unfortunate because I loved what my friend shared!

I tried to use Bookmory several times to keep track of the books I read each month. I love the monthly calendar option. It was a little tricky to enter the books start date and ending date. But I figured it out. The problem was the tracking. When I opened Bookmory it was covered with a notice about tracking and wanted me to allow it. I could not use Bookmory because of it. I deleted Bookmory and reinstalled it 3 times (with my reading data). 😡 It wasn’t a simple fix either. I couldn’t just go on my phone and allow tracking. I had to go through Google (which was a red flag for me). I tried to read the privacy rules and they were all in Chinese. (Another red flag.) So l finally just gave up. Now searching for a better app. I do not recommend Bookmory. Too worried about tracking me.

Was excited about this, but orc for physical books is broken. It says, “try later” ummmkay

Also it’s highly annoying you have to enter a random number each time I want to delete a note.

by Emmieford

I use to love Bookmory, recently they have really dialed up the ads. I looked into the premium to find it’s $30 a year - absolutely insane for a simple tracking app that is offering ad free and statistics. $10-12 a year would be more than generous, if not just a one time purchase. Lack of basic syncing for this price is honestly audacity filled by the devs. Greed taking over and ruining another great app.

To the devs response - my spouse is a software engineer, I understand the costs. A one time $3 charge to get rid of ads is understandable and standard. $31 a YEAR is highway robbery and not only are you shameful in the book community, but the Dev/Software folks are talking about this and it IS NOT PRETTY.

I just got a new phone. I opened up Bookmory …no data. I was made to log in via Google and then asked to restore? But there wasn’t anything to restore? So confusing. 😓 I didn’t have ANY problems with any of my other apps. I had everything synced to the cloud. So why is ALL OF MY DATA GONE!? This hurts because it was really a painstaking process to get the dates started/completed just right. I didn’t have a TON of books that I had read, but I had quite a few on the TBR list and I loved the way my calendar was started to look. Aaaaaggghhhh! I can’t start over. Just too much work and too tedious. These features are really cool, but just makes the whole process too busy and cumbersome. Oh well. Back to my old standby…Goodreads. Boring.

by Reneerunz

I am using this app because it’s the only app I’ve found that allows me to track reading the same book in different languages as a separate read. But, a huge drawback is that it doesn’t sync to my computer. I decided to pay the (pretty expensive) annual fee, thinking I don’t typically use Goodreads in my computer all that open, so wouldn’t be a big deal. However, I now get email reminders at least weekly urging me to “restore” my backup so I don’t lose my data. I don’t want to pay $40/ year to be constantly bugged about the possibility of losing my data. It also makes me wonder if maybe our data is at risk. I mean, if the developer can’t figure out how to make Bookmory sync, maybe the are allowing situations that put our data at risk? In any case, I will look around for other options so that I don’t need to renew next year unless they fix this issue before my renew date comes around.

by RoseyMarie

There is a lot to like about Bookmory, but there are some major problems too.

I love the UI and the concept. I love the achievement screen. I love the notes function and different categories. I love the reading calendar layout.

My big complaints are the prices for premium, $30 a year for just a few features is pretty crazy. I might otherwise that for lifetime but I wouldn’t pay more than maybe $4.99 per year for the current benefits at most. Next, the inability to enter books without read dates. I would love to enter my previous reads that I don’t know dates for but I don’t want to just guess random dates. And the last major complaint is the stats, it includes audiobooks in the pages stat. Audiobooks should not be included in pages and should have a separate stat for listen time.

I may keep using it but it’s unlikely at this point since I can’t enter my previous reads and I like to keep all my data together. If it added fixes to the above I would probably ditch Goodreads and just use this.

by BrookeReadsBooks

The story concept was good. I’m a big fan of the fated mate trope so that had me interested from the start. I don’t personally enjoy slow burn romance so the fast pace of this book was a definite plus. The biggest issue I had was that I just couldn’t connect with the characters. I found myself not really caring what happened to them. The questions/suspense that would typically have me anxiously devouring pages just weren’t there. I could have easily finished this book in a few hours, but it took 4 days because I kept getting distracted by activities that I would usually happily avoid for time with a book. Overall, I think this falls into the “decent book, but not for me” category.

by Taylot16

I really like this app, I switched over from Bookly after 3 years and over 500 books. But without the subscription Bookmory is borderline unusable and I can’t justify another subscription so I switched. I like that there’s no cap on the amount of books you can add but you can only really track time/dates read if you don’t want to pay for a subscription. Plus it dangles those fun stats in front of you that you can’t really look at unless you watch an ad or pay for the subscription. Overall, I like the UI and the ads aren’t too frequent but it’s annoying that you have to watch more to see stats that they’re already tracking. I can’t really justify the monthly/yearly payment when it’s the same as some streaming services that aren’t just tracking content, like it’s a book subscription but you have to bring your own books, it just doesn’t make sense to me. I would be willing to pay a one time fee for forever access, but I’m not going to pay that much in reoccurring yearly/monthly expenses. I will continue to use the apps free version unless some sort of one-time payment option is introduced, or I find another app with similar features that aren’t locked behind a paywall.

by Chelmck

I love this app. It’s become my primary reading tracker and I’ve used Goodreads, StoryGraph, LibraryThing and Litsy. It’s the best for tracking individual reading…not so great if you want a more of a social media experience and interacting with other people. Loves: Easy to use and edit (which I often do), great stats and reading wrap up graphics. One of the only apps that shows you how long you’ve been reading a book in a graphical display. Downsides: Wish I could resize the reading wrapup graphs because you can barely see/read the titles when you want to share them. I may be wrong but it doesn’t seem to calculate the total number of minutes across all completed audiobooks (it does count if you use the reading timer which I never do). I just want to see that I read X number of books which together equaled a total of HH:MM when read to completion. My life would be complete if it worked directly with Libby and Hoopla so I don’t have to log book details every time.

by Knitprincess83

It imported my books. It is easy to figure out. It has daily goals that you can tell it how many pages, books, or percentage you want to do for the day. I wish there was a daily goal that I could do for each book. So on my bible I could put read 4 pages tomorrow. Then on my other book I could put read 20 percent tomorrow. It’s more personal then putting read 100 pages tomorrow. Also my way would keep me focused on reading several books at a time to finish the books. I like the calendar showing start and end dates. I kind of wish there was a way to put when I wanted a book finished and the calendar telling me how many pages or percentage I need that day to finish my book by that day. Overall I will say it’s a good app and I think some updates would make it even better.

by Nylah Everything

I loved the way this app is set up. It’s perfect for tracking your books and annotating. It’s super simple to use. The other tracking apps I’ve found seemed a lot more complicated but this one is super simplified and makes it easy to use. I love the layout of Bookmory too, it’s super cute. I also like the way you can see you stats on how you read. It encourages me to want to one up myself and become a better reader. I also use this app to write notes on my book when annotating. I DONT like writing on my books, so I tab my books, and then use this app to write the note for that tab so I can reference it later. Makes it super easy to look what I wrote. I wish not as many things were covered behind a pay wall, like layout color and text related things, but that’s okay and understandable. I’ll definitely be using this app in the future and using it to track and annotate my books!

by Fjord Cbt

Great app for tracking reading patterns, books, and annotations. The interface is user friendly and aesthetically pleasing. I love the calendar feature when reviewing books read throughout the month. So simple and to the point.

I love being able to track/record my reading times with a built in stopwatch for reading sessions. However, I wish there was a way to view all my reading minutes for one day in one spot. I hate that I have to go into each separate book I’m reading and add my totals to find out how much time I spent reading that day. I would like to see a total reading time spent area in Bookmory instead of splitting up by each book - add up my daily totals 😇😇

by CeeCeeMinnie

Bookmory is such a cute and fun way to keep track of the books you read it has many different features that I find intriguing especially the notes section. However I don’t like the fact that with some books all the specs don’t pop up like the publisher ISBN and number of pages. Some books you have to renter manually and sometimes it hard to find the publisher of certain books so I just use the author as a default publisher being that most of the time the books I read are self published. All in all I really enjoy Bookmory.

by Dnarb720

I really enjoy Bookmory and all its functionality. It lets me track books in all reading formats and I can track my reading time, which I love. I was also able to upload my goodreads info so that I could still have my history while switching to Bookmory. I also love the themes and I do wish that I could sync Bookmory from my iPad to my iPhone though, I paid for the premium subscription and it’s unfortunate that’s not an option. I think this is a great app for people who really want to see their reading stats while also being able to notate different details to not forget what you read months later.
I do wish it had a widget to start the timer though.

by Plumerialei

I love this book tracking app! It’s exactly what I was looking for. Easy to maneuver, easy to record/view all the information I want, and premium pricing is not ridiculous.
I love that I have the option to add where I bought my book and for what price because I buy a lot of used books from various places and I think it’s cool to keep track of where I got my favorite finds so I can visit those places more often.
Another plus for me is not having the statistics blaring in my face when I open Bookmory . I like not having the mental pressure that I didn’t “finish a goal”. I still appreciate the statistics but I like that Bookmory gives you a lot of freedom to customize your reading / tracking experience.

by Chaloba91

I am loving Bookmory . I love the calendar and getting a summary of my reading at the end of the month. I love the book covers being shown on the calendar. I love that it tracks the days you spent reading a book. My one issue is that it doesn’t update across devices. I have a tablet and also read/ listen to audiobooks on my phone and it is a little annoying to have to make a backup to sync across devices even though I’m logged into the same account on both devices. For now I try to make backups every couple days and update to make sure my devices match, but if they developers could figure out the syncing “issue” that would take Bookmory to another level.

by Tashii27

I really like Bookmory a lot, I’ve been using it for several months now, and I really enjoy it. However, I find it very odd, and a bit annoying that you need to pay for a subscription for very basic things, such as statistics and to change the color theme. You want people to pay $40 for the year just to change some colors and generate some pointless statistics? That is pure capitalism at its finest, and I think it’s so absurd. Quit asking me if I want to subscription… It will never happen. Get a grip. Other than that, it’s a decent app.

by BREEAL42

I like being able to keep a tracking of the books I have read, especially since I don’t buy them, but just check out at the library. I also like having the “to read” list so when I get recommended a book or see one I want to read I add it to the list so I don’t forget. I am slowly making my way through my list. Having the actually picture of the book title page is nice versus just listing the name and author. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there is a lot of clicking needed to edit start and end dates for when you read books and adding/editing comments and then going back and finding your comments.

by Booklover7797437

I really like the details that can be changed for each book. Things like format, pages, image, etc. I like the calendar view which is also customizable. App is intuitive and user friendly with minimum clicks. After using Bookmory for awhile for free I started getting random ads that you have to wait to end before you can move on. If this increases I will probably abandon Bookmory. There are sooo many book apps out there now. This one definitely is unique and I recommend it!

by FrozenPompom

Bookmory is just what I wanted for cataloging books I own, books I’ve read, and books I want to read. I enjoy the fact that there are no social elements to Bookmory . I am a subscriber to the Premium features because I enjoy Bookmory so much.

I do wish there were a few additional features. I’d like to see book entries that prominently display the Series name and book number. I’d also like to see data stay synced between devices without the need to use a backup/restore file. The ability to add additional categories to book Status would be nice, as well.

by Fluttery 726

I love Bookmory for tracking my reading. I love that I can track more than one book at a time and that it gives me a calendar view to see what I read what days. I love that it gives you a reading speed, and I like that it can do paper books, or e-books or audiobooks. I also really enjoy that. It can set goals for yearly or monthly, and it gives you a synopsis of the books when you put them in before you start reading overall just thoroughly enjoy Bookmory and would recommend to other avid readers.

by Flamingomom4

I stumbled across Bookmory and have found it to be fantastic! Such a simple way to record books as you finish them. I especially like the calendar view to track how many books I have read recently. I cannot even think of a suggestion for improvement! I would love to reward the developer’s efforts but $30/year is too high for this retired book lover. Please consider changing it to a LIFETIME membership or a more modest $5/year. Thank you for a great app!!!

by Creamandkiss

I don’t know how I was able to keep track of the books I read before getting this app. Actually, I do (Instagram), but keeping track of them through social media was never the most ideal. this app is much better — in fact, I am not sure I will be able to live without it.

I really like the fact that the information for some books is filled in automatically and one doesn’t have to spend all this time typing things out themselves. The part of Bookmory where one can see how much they have read in a month is also a great feature.

I will admit that there are some aspects of Bookmory that I don’t know how to use or have not used yet, but overall, I love this app, will continue to use it, and will recommend it as well.

by JSch-nj

I really like how Bookmory shows read books visually. The ease of making notes and tracking progress is nice. I do wish that search for books was easier (especially when a title has many different individual books) and had more titles included. BUT I am able to bring my own cover images easily (once I go get one, sigh.) I nice next step would be to have the back cover teaser text available.

by Meggyjean910

Loving Bookmory so far, but I wish there was an import feature so I don’t have to manually add all the books I’ve already read this year.

by Itstaylorcale

out of all of the books apps i’ve used (i.e. storygraph and goodreads), this is the best one, yet. it allows you to set daily and annual goals. you can see exactly how long it took you to read a book. (ex: the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins took me 4 hours and 53 minutes.) you can add notes to the books your reading. you can make multiple book collections. i personally have a collection for A Song of Ice and Fire (game of thrones book series). when you’ve decided to take a break from a book, you can put it on pause and it won’t make the time you’re not reading continue. and you can give up on books. it shows you a book calendar of which books you’ve finished on what day. if you don’t want people to be able to see what you’re reading, you can put a passcode on it and keep Bookmory open while it’s timing you with a setting in Bookmory . i love Bookmory so much when it comes to reading. i would 11/10 recommend when it comes to book tracking apps.

Dragonfly by Leila Meacham. What can I possibly say (as I wipe the tears away) but out of the 32 books I have read since the spring this year, this book beats them all. Its a large epic of a novel which has brought out every emotion in me. Dragonfly is the codename for a resistance group dropped behind enemy lines in German occupied Paris. Just five ordinary people who are handpicked and receive mysterious letters from the government asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. Sounds basic and done before? Basic and done before, this book isn't. Its clever, masterful and beautifully written and I found myself so attached to the characters, especially Victoria who I constantly worried about and the two German high ranking officers who were actually good, brave souls and who also won my heart. Nothing is ever as it seems in the horror of war that many were forced into. A beautiful and powerful book with an ending that just took my breath away on the last page. True love never dies in one's heart 💖📖

Bookmory is pretty much as good as Goodreads, and I don’t know how Bookmory is not as popular as Goodreads. A few things are locked behind a paywall, but those things are definitely optional and you can fully use Bookmory without buying anything. Bookmory helps you track your books, lets you take notes, review books (in stars), lets you see how long you read, what hashtags you are using, what day you started and ended and how much you read on each day (even if not at all), lets you read and log multiple books at the same time and let’s you set many different types of reading goals as well as telling you your reading statistics, and lets you make specific collections of books. Bookmory is very good and actually helps you achieve your reading goals. I would 100% recommend Bookmory!

by Improve It !

I was going through the critical reviews because I am a hater at heart who loves to hate and most of the complaints are about the ads. I really don’t understand?? I’ve been using Bookmory for months the ads are not terrible,really annoying for sure but reasonably placed none the less. The important features are not locked behind a paywall and the tracking features themselves are very good. My heart goes out to the developer who has to kindly reply that they need income lol😪 also leaving book reviews in Bookmory reviews is weird I think digital literacy classes need to be mandated

by ButterflySolo

I’m really liking Bookmory . I love that you can add notes to the books, like if you have a favorite scene, then you note where it is in the book to return to that scene. You can add tags, some of your own making and you can put them in collections for easily finding a particular trope or type that you may be looking for.

I did find that a couple of book covers were a bit off. Like, it would show part of the back, the spine, and part of the front, but luckily, that could be edited by adding a photo of the front cover. One or two books didn’t have covers at all but again, an easy fix.

I think it would be cute if the books displayed on a shelf, whether looking at the entire list or as a collection, but that’s a very minor aesthetic thing. Overall, I’m quite happy with Bookmory .

by Sammiedarrin

this app has completely changed the way I read and keep track of my books! Bookmory is incredibly user-friendly, with a sleek design and intuitive navigation. I love the way it lets me organize my reading list, track my progress, and set reading goals. The ability to add notes and quotes is a game-changer—it’s so helpful to be able to jot down my thoughts and favorite passages while I read.

The statistics feature is amazing. It shows my reading habits over time, which motivates me to read more. Bookmory even allows you to back up your data and sync across devices, which is super convenient. Overall, this app has become my go-to app for all things books. If you're an avid reader or just starting to get into reading, Bookmory is a must-have!

by SASickie

Update: this is a great app. I truly enjoy that I can look back on my calendars to see what I’ve read. Funny thing is someone will recommend a book that sound familiar and it is nice to be able to find it in my calendar and read my review that reminds me of what the book was about. Love Bookmory. Highly recommend!

When I started using this app it was just okay. Really love the calendar view which is why I wanted Bookmory . BUT - as I use it more, and learn how to properly record things, it has become really helpful. Not the most intuitive app for this led brain but it has really grown on me and I recommend to my fellow readers!

by Bhabeck

I’m still using the free version as I am only just starting to use Bookmory , but so far, I’m very pleased with it overall. Adding books, tracking progress and seeing your upcoming reads is quick and easy. The calendar is a great feature for people who want a visual tracking of their reading progress and can be customized in several ways to suit a reader’s needs.

I think my one issue right now is the rental/purchase area and familiarizing myself with the settings and trying to decide how to load the library reads. I use Libby, Cloudlibrary and Hoopla and have multiple libraries available for each so it’s more about setting up for go forward than anything.

I’d ultimately like to import books in from goodreads but I’ll have to research in terms of appending vs overwriting duplicates as I’m currently using both (since goodreads updates from my kindle reading). Also have books in kobo, bookfunnel, ibooks and collectorz (for physical books) so being able to combine all libraries would be great.

by Rikku74

I searched around for awhile for an app to simply log my progress in readings. I remember as a kid I loved reading more when I could add to my cute calendar how much time I spent with which book. Bookmory is that in an adult version that also let’s me take notes, time my readings, keep track of library, keep track of when and where I bought or rented the books, and quantify my daily/monthly/yearly achievements (how many days it takes to read a book, how many minutes I read per day, how many books I read per month,…) Like other apps that are more pricy (and overdone) it also has the ability in the notes to take a picture of a text and transpose it into a text to save. Most of all Bookmory is pleasant to look at (just enough but not too many features or announcements) and runs really smoothly which will keep me coming back to it.

by Aerowrite

If you’re a book lover who loves to track your reading, I think you’ll enjoy Bookmory. It allows you to make book notes which is very helpful. I especially love the Book Calendar features where you can see your reads for the month at-a-glance. Very helpful for me since I read 14-16 books /novels a month. I also love the tracking features (time, percentage, pages) and love the clean, simple interface. It is however private. There is no social aspect (like Goodreads) which is my only critique. For example, even on a small scale, I wish I could see friends and what they were reading. My only other feedback point is that I wish there was a way to track buddy reads or club reads. I love that there is a DNF feature. Well done! this app is my favorite app for the personal tracking of books.

by LaurynAmber

Bookmory is very easy to use and gets yourself use to! I love that you can track the time you read, number of books read, and pages read. It also splits it up based on genres and wether it was a paper book or e-book. I have not but the bullet to pay for the premium yet as the free version has all I want, however, they do give you the option to watch a quick ad for the more in depth statistics based on your reading.

I think my favorite part is the book calendar, which shows the books you’ve read for that month.

I definitely recommend you try Bookmory, as opposed to some of the others, if you want to start tracking your reading journey!

by Ravynty

this app is a bibliophile's dream come true! As an avid reader, I've been searching for an app that seamlessly combines my love for books with organization and discovery. this app does just that and more. Its intuitive interface allows me to easily catalog my book collection, track my reading progress, and discover new titles based on my interests. The personalized recommendations feature is spot-on, introducing me to hidden gems I wouldn't have found otherwise. Plus, the community aspect adds a delightful social element, where I can connect with fellow bookworms, share recommendations, and participate in engaging discussions. With this app, every reading journey is an adventure waiting to unfold. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to elevate their reading experience!

by Isa_2437

I am an avid book reader and I wanted a place to track how long it takes for me to read it. I found multiple apps but most of them you had to pay for everything. Then I found Bookmory and I fell in love with it. It is almost completely free. Well the stuff I want to see. There are a few things you have to pay for if you want different background or a specific time line of how long you read and other small things but for the most part I am using Bookmory completely free with little to no adds. The only time I get adds is occasionally after a reading session before you save your progress and even that is like 1 out of every 15 to 20 times and it is a quick 30 second add and just like that done. I love Bookmory with my whole heart and really recommend if you enjoy reading like I do.😁👍

by MirandaPanda13875

I was really trying to find an app to keep up with all the books I’ve read and this one has been the best so far. It is easy to use, as long as you have an average understanding of apps. I wouldn’t give it to my grandma per say, but a kid could use it. It is all FREE. I have encountered NO paywalls. Which you can see I’m happy about. I hate when simple apps like these have paywalls. Basically, if you want to track your books in a simple, aesthetically pleasing way, this is Bookmory for you. I have zero complaints Edit: Okay, just realized there is in fact a bit of a paywall, for statistics. I don’t really use statistics, so it’s whatever, but if you do intend to use statistics I’d try to find another app. Unless you’re good with paying.

by Jusdointicktocktime

I’ve struggled with a way to keep track of my reading and what I’m reading, my KU read list sometimes doesn’t add books I’ve read. But this app does it and so much more! I add in books once I’ve completed them, I can download a calendar with all my reading for the month, keep track of reading goals, enter notes about books I’ve read add tags and even put them into categories I set up. There’s even an option to add books I want to read! I don’t use that function much since it would take forever to add my TBR list lol, but it’s there! Definitely recommend Bookmory to everyone on my reading groups! And these basic features are free. I cannot imagine what other gems can be had with a paid subscription.

by Philly3974

This is a great book tracking app! I really enjoy the latest updates with adding more collections. Bookmory is simple and user friendly. I have yet to come across a book not in their data base. Notes are great for writing favorite quotes or my likes and dislikes of each book I read. The calendar and stats are perfect for an “at a glance” review of my reading habits. The daily reminder to “read a book” is a great push to ensure I don’t forget to add a little reading time for myself. My only suggestion would be adding a feature to recommend books based on books that I have read or one I have saved to my collections.

by Amyray417

I have been on the hunt for the perfect app to keep track of my book lists, but I also wanted the same app to help me build more of a steady reading habit. I finally found this app, and it does it all! I have my Reading, Want To Read, and Read lists; I can make notes on the books that I am reading, and I can write reviews. There is a timer to keep track of how long and how much I am reading during a session, so I can generate reports that help me gauge my progress and challenge myself to read more. I read fiction and nom-fiction, so I may be reading a novel and three non-fiction books all during the sane time period. I can enter all the books I am currently reading and track everything in this app. I have shared Bookmory with so many friends and family members, they may think I own stock in the company!

by OMG Just Get It

I am thoroughly enjoying using Bookmory to track my books read and to read. I have had zero issues with it. I did not upgrade to premium. This is exactly what I was looking for. this app has satisfied all of reading tracking I have ever dreamed of. I have been looking for an app like this. There are the occasional annoying ads. As long as they are infrequent I will keep Bookmory . If they monopolize then I will have no other option expect to delete it. I have always kept an excel doc with the books I read…but I am enjoying using the convenient app. I wish there was a place to put your yearly goals and it would track them. It could be on the premium upgrade but the cost is exorbitant. I might consider it the cost was something like 4.99. Overall I love Bookmory.

by PrincessLilyMae

I have enjoyed using Bookmory to track the books I am currently reading and a list of ones I am interested in. I LOVE the calendar view to see my books read. Using Bookmory is mostly intuitive, although there’s a few menus that seem to overlap and I’m not 100% certain why. There are various ways to track your progress in a book, and each type of book is represented as well. I would recommend this to a friend or someone looking for an app to track their reading habit.

The only thing I would change is adding syncing to other reading apps. It would be so awesome if Audible and Hoopla automatically synced to Bookmory so I didn’t have to put in every audiobook.

Love that it’s free with zero ads. I like tracking what I read to see how long it takes me to read it. There are features where you can take pics to add in quotes from the book and also rate them. I love the calendar which shows your reading log in calendar view. Great app and highly recommend!

A few suggestions to add in as new features:
- along with the timer, would love to see read pages per minute calculated. I like to track how fast I’m reading per page to see if my reading increases over time.
- would love a one time purchase option instead of subscription

I love nearly everything about Bookmory. Only had it about a week before deciding to support and subscribe for a year. The benefit of being able to visually see read/listened to books on a calendar along with tracking the actual time is something I didn’t know I was missing in my reading logs. It’s one thing to say, read in a week and another to know exact times over that week. Love the feature to add books so there’s a TBR already there so you can quickly start your next book if you have it added. That’s helping with a faster view of seeing what’s on the horizon.

If could make any change, it would just be the log to say Day 1, 2 etc on actual days instead of the number of days since started. For example, start on a Mon, that’s day 1 and read again on Wed will show as day 3 instead of day 2. But that’s massively small seeing as tho most reading apps have the full span of days. But wi tho seeing the times each day, would just be a nice feature. But this has quickly become my daily go to reading tracker.

this app is easy to use and doesn't hide anything more than aesthetics and in-depth statistics behind a paywall. The only time ads play is once every few times you open Bookmory (not EVERY time you update your progress) or if you want to change your color theme between the three free options. I love that I can use tags and categories, and see my monthly reading without paying. Making notes and reviews is free as well. I also appreciate that it's offline and manual backup, so I don't have to worry about connecting to the internet to update my progress.

I’ve used Goodreads for years but saw some screenshots of the calendar feature of this app and knew I wanted to try it. So I love the calendar feature for re-building my reading habit. The TBR list is easily accessible. It has a refreshing UI where Goodreads is falling behind. I also don’t need everything I read to be public. Not everything needs to be a social experience. I’m also working on my reading speed so it’s helpful to know how much time I’m actually spending on each book. It has areas that could be improved but they are minor quibbles.

I got Bookmory for the visual calendar. That is my primary use of it as I enjoy the Statistics of apps like Storygraph without having to buy a subscription. But I get it, developers need to get compensated for their work.

I wish when I imported books from other apps that it flagged duplicated rather than me having to delete each one and figure out which app they came from. Lastly, I wish it had a yearly reading challenge where you could see which books are just from this year. Maybe that’s in the paid part of it? And if i am missing it, it’s not user friendly in that instance.

I didn't want the aspect of being social with my book reading. I just wanted an app where I could track the books I read, since I go through so many, to help me remember what I've read already (and an easy place to refresh my memory on what that book was about and what I thought of it by ratings). I'm getting older and the CRS that comes with that is a real struggle! Bookmory is great so far for being what I need with great extras like statistics.

by Borderlinesc

have only been using this consistently for a week, but i would say it’s worth it and ive actually already made the switch to this FULL TIME! that’s how much i like it lol. i was using another book logging app for ages but i like the formatting with this app and also getting to use different fonts for my notes, different colors etc. haven’t even tried out the subscription service part of this yet but.. i’m definitely planning on it :)

by Jennaanne16

I love that Bookmory offers things that all the other book tracking apps i’ve used in the past don’t. I enjoy being able to see the calendar that is offered and see how many days it takes to finish a book rather than just having the input pages read and see a percentage. it has greatly impacted the way I read and I have recommended it to many people because of it!

by Kelly_22_81

I love this reading tracker! The user interface is so easy to navigate and use, very intuitive. I get to see all the books I read for the year, each month. It also allows me to write comments and notes. I deleted all my other reading tracker apps because they were so confusing to use and definitely not as intuitive as this one. Please keep Bookmory the same and don’t make changes. I love it as is!

by Nysa00

More interactive than other book tracking apps I have used. I like the layout and the customization options. I love the notes function, saving my favorite quotes and thoughts. I love the calendar layout. It’s very visually appealing. The search feature needs some tweaking. When I search for a title I get a lot of barely related results before the actual title. When I scan, the books are frequently not found.

by Abhendrix13

I downloaded Bookmory after seeing it on a FB post. It’s so cute! The statistics that it tracks are so fascinating. I love timing my reads, tracking my pages read a day, and learning about my particular patterns when it comes to reading. Something about seeing a graph makes me want to add more data to it. Bookmory is also amazing when it comes to ads. Nothing pops up unwarranted. If you would like you access a paid portion of Bookmory you simply have to watch an add. The aesthetics of it are so cute too. 5/5 stars for me.

by Nancyxoxo

I normally do not leave reviews but Bookmory is one of my absolute favorites! I like that I can time myself for how long I’ve been reading as well as how far I’ve read. I have a kindle and borrow ebooks from the library, I like that with Bookmory I can also keep track of how long I have until I need to return a book. I also like that I can keep notes on the books I read in case I ever want to revisit the book. I think this is one of the best book tracking apps and I have tried a lot :)

by Xxkiwi27xx

I’ve gotten really into tracking my reading this year and this app is one of my favorite apps. I love their calendar feature so you can visually see how many days it takes to get through certain books. I also love that you can time your reading and see exactly how long it takes you to read a book. As soon as I finish a reading session I turn to this app to log that session of reading. The other features it tracks are amazing too. One of my faves this year!!

by Puzzlerzzzzzzx

I can’t even decide my favorite part of Bookmory. The calendar view is excellent and it’s great to see a visual representation of what I have been reading/when. I love that I can time my reading too and look back and see my progress. Even the little confetti when I finish a book is a cute touch! Also, I had a question and emailed the creator through Bookmory and he responded within minutes with easy to follow instructions and screenshots. Really amazing and I wish I found Bookmory sooner!

by PorshaMac

One of the best reading apps ever! I love it because it has multiple forms of tracking the books you have read for your year in review (by calendar view, comprehensive list, etc). You can input notes and change font and format. It allows for many TBR options. It can track reading time and favorite genres, etc. But the best feature is the congratulations/confetti screen when you have finished a book…INSTANT GRATIFICATION!

by *Nitsirk*

I love reading and tracking things. When a friend recommended Bookmory, I instantly became hooked. I already have a paper book journal (which I still use), but I love the ability to have my logs and wish lists on my phone for when I’m in a bookstore or the library. I also love tracking my reading minutes. It’s beautiful and well laid out. As someone who has kept a log of every book I’ve reading since 2011, Bookmory feels made just for me!

by Fb App

I came across Bookmory when someone on a fb group screenshot their books they read for that month and just loved how it displayed.

This is app is so simple to use and exactly what I need which is to track the books I have read, timer, separate lists of DNF, paused books TBR, calendar to view how many books I have read per month. It has no extra frills and no intrusive ads.

by Krysara*

I've tried many different book tracking apps and this is one of the best. Love being able to see the covers of the books I've read. The calendar view is awesome and I've enjoyed the way Bookmory celebrates with every book completed. I would love it even more if it could also track reading challenges, like Romanceopoly, but that's just a wish list kind of idea.

by RandomBagel

Bookmory is my absolute favorite app of all time. The amount of stuff you get for free is amazing compared all the other book tracking apps that cost so much for basically the same thing.

I’m genuinely considering paying for premium to get the color change to Bookmory and to get some of the reading statistics to be open permanently (you can watch an ad to see them for a little while).

by Jwarnertx

I never, ever review apps. But I had to stop and rate this one!! It’s beautiful! Importing my lists from goodreads was really easy, and I love that I could mark a book as given up. Something you can’t really do on goodreads. I am meh on half stars, but I love seeing the graphics. It’s just beautiful!! I have found a couple typos, which are glaring and a little disappointing, especially for a literary type app. But I can look past it for Bookmory ’s simplicity and appearance.

by Jovi714

I initially got Bookmory book of the book calendar. I read a lot of books and easily forget what I read. I know I can see what I read via my Kindle account but it’s the fastest way to find a book. The book calendar from this app makes it very fast and easy to view the books by cover. I also like being able to see how long I take to read a book too.

by Ssuuppeerrjade

Great app! I love being able to see everything in one spot! My TBR & Completed is now organized! I use this DAILY, signed up for the premium because of it. I had only one issue but emailed them and they fixed it immediately.👏🏻 I do wish one think! I wish one of the charts showed the type of genres read! Like how they do with the authors & pages! That would be super cool!

by Bexx3!

This is the best book tracker I have used. The free version lets you do so much with it, like create collections, add books automatically with the barcode or add it manually, create notes, tag your books, see statistics, pause books or put it into DNF state, and even has a timer to log your reading sessions. I loved all of these features and wanted to see more statistics and change the color themes so I bought the paid version. I really like Bookmory but I hope that they add more color themes!

by Gvreader

Only been using a few weeks but am very happy with all the features.
Completing my second month on Bookmory . The only con I have found so far is the inability to add photos, maps or diagrams under notes. For example, in The Wager by David Grunn there are a number of maps it would be nice to save on Bookmory . Or genealogy or pictures from the internet. In reading a book set in the 1200’s I find myself double checking things including images on the net. (For ex: The Roman image of the Wheel of Fortuna).

by C Mannnnn

Love the export feature. Now maybe an import feature? 🤗

by Josephinelorraine

I love that you can time yourself every time you read. It also keeps track of what days u were reading what book. I like that it totals my pages i have read each day as well. There are several features you have to pay for (or you can watch an ad. I don’t know how many times you can do that though before you have to pay). I really
Like it though. May pay the yearly total of $30 once i use it more. It may not come in handy for me. We shall see tho.

by Laurenks74

I love Bookmory, I love reading and read a lot. It started with a reading challenge where I had to keep track of what I was reading and when I was finished and Bookmory was the best. Now I use it to just keep track of my reading and I have collections that I made on Bookmory of books I want to read. I read on my kindle and Bookmory has so many features that it suits an avid reader perfectly. I have the free version and it’s great!
