BookOwl: Reading Tracker

Your reading life, delightfully organized.

BookOwl is a free reading companion for people who love books. Build your personal library, track what you're reading, and make your profile your own — all without ads, clutter, or data harvesting. Available on iOS and at bookowlapp.com.

YOUR PROFILE, YOUR WAY
BookOwl 2.0 introduces a completely redesigned profile with five tabbed sections — Overview, Collections, Reviews, Stats, and Personal. Choose which reading stats sit front and center with drag-to-reorder hero stats. Pick your aurora colors. Arrange your sections. Your profile should look the way you want it to, and now it does.

PRIVACY THAT MAKES SENSE
One toggle. Three options: Public, Friends Only, or Private. Visitors see a clear, friendly banner explaining what's shared — no confusing settings buried three screens deep. You're always in control.

IMPORT FROM ANYWHERE
Switching from another app? Import your full reading history from Goodreads, StoryGraph, Audible (via OCR), or Libby (timeline import). Your ratings, shelves, reading dates — everything comes with you. You can also export your library to CSV or JSON anytime. Your data belongs to you.

SCAN BOOKS IN SECONDS
Point your camera at any barcode. BookOwl identifies it instantly and adds it to your library. Stack of books at a used bookstore? Scan them all in one session.

RATE WITH PRECISION
Half-star and quarter-star ratings. No more agonizing over whether a book is a 3 or a 4.

ORGANIZE YOUR WAY
Create custom shelves and curated book lists for any purpose — "Beach Reads," "Book Club," "Lent to Friends." Filter, search, and browse to find any book in seconds.

YEAR IN REVIEW
Your reading year wrapped up in shareable cards — your reading personality type, top genres, longest streak, total pages, and more. Share your stats anywhere.

SERIES TRACKING
BookOwl automatically identifies series and shows your reading order. Never wonder which book comes next.

DISCOVER YOUR READING IDENTITY
Your Reading Autobiography captures your journey as a reader — the themes you love, how your tastes have evolved, and the story your bookshelf tells about you.

FIND YOUR NEXT READ
Personalized recommendations based on your history. Author pages, multiple editions, and a catalog of millions of books to explore.

USE IT ANYWHERE
iOS app for on-the-go. Web app at bookowlapp.com with the same redesigned profile, achievements, and personal bests. Your data syncs seamlessly across devices.

BUILT FOR READERS, NOT ADVERTISERS
No ads. No engagement tricks. No data selling. Just a calm, thoughtful space for your reading life — built by a reader, for readers.
