I've been using this app and really liked it so far. It's simple, beautifully designed, and has all the important features you need. Here are a few recommendations that I think could make it even better:1. There should be a way to update the progress based on the percentage read as well because when I'm reading on e-book readers, the page numbers may not match with the physical book.2. When adding notes, it would be wonderful if I could timestamp them or specify the section of the book on which the note is based.3. Adding a widget could make it easier to get a snapshot of where we are.4. A two-way sync with Goodreads could be useful, although not absolutely necessary.5. Perhaps a discovery section based on reviews of books we've read could personalise the experience.Overall, it's still a great app—quite stable and working extremely well.
Developer Response
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I'll answer in order: 1. This is now implemented, thanks for the idea :) 2. Recently we added Quotes, which should be similar to what you're looking for3. Widgets are now available! 4. I dont think it's possible anymore, a few years ago Goodreads removed their public API :( I'll look into this anyway, would be a cool feature.5. Discovery section is now live :)
- Stats now has a richer reading calendar with book-cover activity and shareable images.
- Book details and Stats tabs are easier to scan and tap with new icon-led controls.
- Minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
