Description

Pinakes — Your Personal Library, Always with You

The reading tracker for iOS book lovers. Track reading sessions with Live Activity, manage your library with Smart Collections, and sync everything privately via iCloud. No account. No ads. Import from Goodreads in seconds.

YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR WAY
Organize your books with five reading statuses: Currently Reading, To Read, Wishlist, Already Read, and Did Not Finish. Smart Collections automatically group your library by genre, reading format, and more — no manual sorting needed. Filter by genre, format, or your own custom tags. Sort by author, title, or date. Group by shelf, author, or series — and collapse an entire series into a single row.

DISCOVER YOUR NEXT GREAT READ
Search millions of books by title, author, or subject — with improved results for non-English books across parallel catalog sources. Scan any book's barcode with your camera to add it instantly. Add books manually if they're not found in any catalog. Replace a book to fix incomplete metadata from a Goodreads import. Browse current NYT bestsellers and genre-based discovery lists. Watch BookTok-style video recommendations curated to your favourite genres.

YOUR AI READING GUIDE
Not sure what to read next? Books Guide uses Apple Intelligence to suggest up to five books from your own library — one similar to your current read, one refreshingly different, the one gathering dust the longest, a comfort pick from a favourite author, and a short read for busy days. Every reason is generated entirely on-device, with no data leaving your phone.

TRACK YOUR READING TIME
Start a reading session with a tap and follow your progress on the lock screen and Dynamic Island via Live Activity. Pause, resume, and finish sessions from your Apple Watch companion app. Browse your complete reading history month by month in the built-in calendar. Start and stop sessions hands-free with Siri.

RICH BOOK DETAILS
Rate books (1–5 stars), write reviews, and log exactly how and when you read each one — down to the life stage if the exact date is lost. Attach notes and quotes, even scanning text directly from a physical page with your camera.

STAY ON TRACK
Set a reading goal and receive personalised notifications featuring the book you're currently reading. Inactivity reminders nudge you back after 14 days. Library loan reminders fire 3 days before — and on — the return date.

WORKS EVERYWHERE
Home screen and lock screen widgets show your wishlist or upcoming loan returns at a glance. Apple Watch app lets you control reading sessions from your wrist. Ask Siri to update a book's status or start a reading session — without opening the app. Quick Actions jump you straight to the barcode scanner or your favourites.

IMPORT & EXPORT
Moving from Goodreads? Import your entire library with a single CSV file. Export your library anytime to share or back it up.

PRIVACY FIRST
Your library syncs privately and securely across all your devices via iCloud. No account required — your data stays yours.

Start your reading journey with Pinakes today.

What's new (v2.1.1)

Fixed an issue where the Dynamic Island Live Activity for a reading session could remain active after stopping the session inside the app.
You can now edit the end time of a reading session, not just the start time.
