Ratings and Reviews
Very useful; great functionality; clean interface.
What I like about this app is the seamless functionality and the straightforward interface. It has been such a great time favorable tool, saving so much of our time that would have otherwise been spent, tediously documenting annual reading lists for school age children, to present to a teacher/evaluator for their education. In so doing this app has helped reserve more time for reading!
In my opinion, it could only be better if there was an option for creating folders, as someone mentioned before me, with the same interface design that is already in place, so that we could catalogue the literature being read by more than one individual at a time. And also, if there was the capability to send the list to someone, so that it would accommodate our needs in an even more expedient manner.
To get around these two obstacles, we create a list for one child at a time, in sections of books they have read lately, scan the books in, or search for them - it is so quick - then take screenshots of the list to have it on hand, before deleting and generating a new list.
The best I’ve found
This is the simplest, most intuitive reading list app I have come across. I’ve tried a lot of them, and this does exactly what I need it to do. I know it’s not been updated in years, so I’m hoping being the developers haven’t abandoned it!
Simple & easy but...
It’s a great app with a simplistic design that fulfills it’s main purpose!!
However, there is some room for improvements:
- it would be great if there was a function to customize the order of your books rather than just (Date added, Author, Title)
- there’s no tracking system for how far into each book you’re reading but that’s not necessarily a dealbreaker for me
- it would be a huge help to be able to link the app with my apple account so that I can transfer the same books to different devices and make sure that I don’t suddenly lose everything
Also just as a tip for new users, finding books can be a bit finicky sometimes. So you may have to go by the authors name rather than the book title or even type out the book title letter by letter to see if it shows up.
Best of luck!!
