User reviews
Users praise the Bookshelf app for its attractive, user-friendly interface and helpful reading tracking features, alongside responsive developer support. Common issues include difficulty adding books via barcode or search, inability to import digital books, limited customization options like custom shelves, and bugs in favorites and artwork display. The app lacks clarity on reading functionality, and some users find manual book entry tedious. Despite these, the app shows promise with regular updates and valuable features offered for free.
Pros
- Easy to use with a simple, clean, and visually appealing interface that resembles a bookshelf.
- Allows users to track reading progress including pages read and reading hours, helping set personal challenges.
- Responsive and helpful customer service with developers who listen to feedback and implement updates.
- Free to use with features typically found in paid apps, making it accessible for most users.
- Promising growth and potential, with frequent updates from the developer enhancing the app experience.
Cons
- Issues with adding books: barcode scanner and online search often fail or do not work properly.
- Cannot import existing books from phone or digital libraries; users must manually enter book details which is time-consuming and sometimes ineffective.
- Lack of customization options such as creating custom shelves or better organization features.
- Bugs related to favorite books not showing up in shelves and book artwork not displaying correctly.
- No built-in reading feature or tutorial, making it unclear how or if books can be read within the app.

Don't even appear to be able to add your own book shelves..which every other book app does..too limited for me if that's the case
