Reading Time Reviews

ReadingTime is useful if you want to track your reading time, but there are some downsides:

-You can’t pause while you’re reading. There is no option to pause the timer if , say, someone asks you a question. It has proved moderatly annoying many times. (Btw, if the developers are reading this, can you please fix some of these downsides? Thanks)

- It is an annoying process to add a book. First you have to look up the book on google books through ReadingTime . Okay, that’s fine. Then it asks you to add stuff like the page count, and how many pages are actually for reading (excluding stuff like the acknowledgements and authors notes). The issue with that is if you read on an ebook app like me, when you switch to that app to find the info, when you come back, everything that was already entered has disappeared, including the title and author. This issue is SO ANNOYING!!!

The only reason that I keep using ReadingTime is because its the only one I could find without in app payments. If the developers could add a pause function and make it easier to add ebook info, then my rating would definitely go up.

Awesome app and way to track what you’re reading. My only issue so far is that I wish I could track percentages instead of pages, since the ebooks I read have differences in page length depending on which device I’m reading with (phone app vs iPad vs Kindle/Kobo). It’s still worth giving it a shot though since ReadingTime looks and functions well!
