Reviews for Bookly – Book Tracker Library

Getting an error when adding a book. It keeps saying "An unknown error has occurred." Clearing cache, clearing data and uninstall/reinstall doesn't work. I purchased the Pro version of the app as well as participated in the readathon but can't add a book now. // Update: Thanks for the response about adding books working again. It does. However, submitting my reading report for the Wanderlust Readathon gives errors. (Says something about unable to register or something)

The app is very easy to use and the timer works well for me, everything Is fine except alot of the features that I would like, I have to pay full premium for. Which I wouldn't have an issue with paying for 1 or 2 features, but paying for all of them for a set price every month? Sorry but like 1 time purchases. Other than that the app works really well to track my reading progress and I will be using it for the as long as I can.

I love the features that the app offers. However, you only get to input/keep track of reading 10 books before the app won't allow you to add more without purchasing their pro subscription. I will probably return to just using my library app/Goodreads when I can no longer add more books for free; but it was nice while it lasted!

Pretty good app, I love keeping track of what books I read and if I like em or not. However, it took me a while to figure out how to submit your reports for the readathons. Had to go to the instagram and send the copy there. Took a while for me to find where to submit it. Other than that, no complaints. Just wish it easier to send in the reports.

I've been using the app for over a year. I started with the free version and eventually upgraded to pro. I want to love the app, but there are just enough nuisances that I can't. Everytime I finish a reading session, it tells me I finished the book. No matter how many minutes I read, and what it tells me I earned, I have received zero diamonds for the past 2 weeks. Occasionally, I will read for 80 minutes and it will randomly tell me I read for much less. It's good, but it could be great.

Edit: It's been about 2 months and the reminders still don't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Still broken. I really liked this app at first, but then the reminders stopped working. I have ADHD so I set a lot of alarms as reminders. This feature worked for about 3 days and stopped. By the time I remember and notice , it's too late for me to start reading. I would pay for this app if it worked properly, but for now, I'll set an alarm on my phone for free.

Unfortunately, the developers decided to put syncing reading progress behind a paywall so unless you want to pay at least $10 a month, you won't be able to have a uniform database across your devices. As someone who likes to read on one device and track progress and notes on another, this is a deal breaker. I was genuinely considering premium but finding out a basic function was locked was a hard no. Going back to Storygraph.

By far one of my favorite tracking apps. I had a few others before, and there's still some I haven't tried yet, but this one is amazing. I do have the pro version myself, but regardless, it's cute, it's easy to use, it's nice to see how my stats are while reading, like average pages/per minute/hour, I like that you can add thoughts and comments and quotes while reading.

I actually really love this app! Do be wary, you can only add 10 books for free. Otherwise, you have to buy premium to add more. I personally, I love that there's a side option to this, you earn gems every time you read (or watch an ad for 50 gems). Using these gems you can unlock new spots for more books. I love how you can track the book, add quotes, & it tells you how long you spent read a book in total. Great place to keep all my books & stats!

Was awesome, now it's buggy. The app was awesome before the update. Now it's super buggy. It won't let me see my progress on the new calendar past June, and it's not allowing me to add new books, even though I still have 2 slots for books. The timer and book progress still works great, but the bugs/issues that have come about after the update actually makes me want to find another app.
