Challenges, rebuilt. • Five kinds of challenges: a number of books, a reading list, some books from a list, a series in order, or a number of pages • Genre challenges, with suggestions from your own shelves first • Create a challenge step by step, with your own banner • See your progress the way each challenge is played: stamps, shelf, path or gauge • Collective challenges: read together toward one shared total • A new Challenges tab in Social, with official challenges and your friends' • Share your progress in one tap Also fixed: ratings missing from achievements and shared images, more accurate reading stats, Google sign-in, and many smaller corrections.

Ratings that hold up, requests you can follow. • A super rating now shows as super while you set it — the tap no longer looks lost at 5.00 • Ratings brought in from a file no longer inflate an average. A page count that landed in a rating column counts as 5, and never mints a super star • Logging a session on a book you had already finished no longer erases its finish date • Books you asked us to add now appear under Report an issue, each with a plain answer about what happened to it • A shared book link opens for whoever you sent it to, signed in or not • French books find covers in the Québec catalogue when the English sources have none

Fixes, and a few small additions. • A shared invite or creator code now opens the offer — not your own dashboard, and not a login wall. Invite links also open when you're signed out with the app already installed. • Text shortened for a preview no longer cuts an emoji in half: message previews, notifications, reply quotes and shared links. • Reading pace and average time per book now count only the sessions you actually timed, and tell you how many they're based on. • Notes can be grouped into sections you name. Deleting a section keeps its notes and moves them back to General. • Pin a nook to your profile board. • Hide the tile on a header without losing your decoration or colour.

Halloween is here. Ten new looks for your reader profile — five rings that wrap your avatar (Drip, Cobweb, Horns, Fangs, Bats) and five auras that take over the page around you (Fog, Ghosts, Tombstones, Pumpkins, Spiders). The effects picker has been rebuilt so you can see each one moving before you pick it, and the rest of the collection sits alongside them — Falling leaves, Lantern, Glow, Rain and more. Also fixed: A Nook conversation you had just posted in could come back reading "no messages yet" when it had simply failed to load. It now tells you what happened and lets you reopen it Covers sometimes came out blank on a shared card. The capture now waits for every image to finish decoding before it draws A publication date that isn't a real date is caught while you type, instead of failing quietly later on Steadier Nooks, a smoother row of online readers, and refreshed policy pages Happy haunting — and happy reading.

Two things readers kept asking for, plus a lot that got steadier: Can't find a book? Add it yourself, in seconds. It's usable right away — sessions, progress, rating, notes, goals, quotes and shelves all work — and Booknook keeps checking the catalog on its own. If the book turns up later we link your copy automatically, keeping everything you'd already written New notification settings: one switch for this device, quiet hours overnight, and nine categories you turn on or off one at a time. Your bell still keeps every notification — these only decide what interrupts you 100 badges instead of 21, and not just counters: what you read now counts too — long books, other languages, older books, series, rereads, audiobooks — alongside how steadily you read Booknook Partners: if a creator you follow shares their code, you get 20–25% off Booknook Creative for a full year Invite a friend and you both get a free month — and a code you tapped before signing up is now remembered and applied once your account exists Challenge and goal progress moves as you log pages, instead of sitting at 0% until the moment you finish Reading sessions land on the right calendar day no matter which timezone you're in Long conversations stay where you left them — a new reaction no longer throws you to the bottom of the thread — and timestamps now separate conversations instead of being stamped on every message A short buzz the instant a long press catches, so the reaction tray responds before it draws More covers, loading faster, in more places Thanks for reading with Booknook — happy reading!

This one is all fixes — the parts you use every day, made dependable: - Book covers load reliably everywhere, including inside pickers and while you scroll fast — no more covers stuck shimmering forever - Your library now works offline: your shelf and its covers stay on screen without a connection, and an outage no longer tells you your own library is private - Videos are prepared on your phone before they upload, so posting a clip takes seconds instead of minutes - Videos start sharp instead of blurry, and only the clip you're looking at loads — lighter on data and on memory - Sound follows the post you're viewing, with a proper mute/unmute control - @mentions in comments, replies and messages now really link to the person and notify them — replies no longer post a name as plain text - The feed stops bringing back posts you've already read, while still filling up when there's little new - Fixed collection banners not showing on profile board pins - Announcement cards, the Board, News, Changelog and Roadmap all line up properly and look right on every screen size - Better cover artwork, and more French titles turn up in search Thanks for reading with Booknook — happy reading!

Explore is now the Booknook Board. Everything we publish, everything we're building, and new books to find — gathered in one place, and open to everyone. • Read the news, the roadmap and release notes without leaving the app • Comment on articles and events, reply to other readers, react with any emoji, and add a GIF • Get notified only when someone replies to you or reacts to your comment — never for the whole thread • Search has its own screen now, with a compact bar and its options one tap away • Discovery shelves show whose books they are, right on the cover • Articles are public pages you can share with anyone Plus a lot of smaller fixes across the Board, the article pages and the search screen.

Your reading month, on a card. MONTHLY WRAP-UP Every month you read now has its own set of cards — covers, your numbers, badges earned, your book of the month, day by day. Pick the book, choose the indicators, edit any card in the Studio, then share them or post them to Booknook. SHARE STUDIO New card effects — hearts, dust, shimmer and custom patterns — plus stat, rating and badge stickers. With Creative, effects animate and export as a GIF. YOUR SHELVES Mark favourites (with a foil finish on Creative), filter by Favourites, Signed or Deluxe, and search your library by title. BOOKS AND READERS Book pages now show what other readers thought, and which editions they're using. Ratings can be kept private. Audiobooks track position and time listened. Goals can be corrected book by book. SOCIAL The full reaction set on posts and activities, one photo per comment, and clearer private and friends-only profiles. ALSO Faster feed and library, quicker covers, images saved to a Booknook album, tags translated, and fixes for likes that undid themselves, replies stuck in the comment box, videos stuck on "processing", and sessions landing on the wrong day.

This one is all fixes. • Genres and formats now show in your app language instead of English • Books past your 1,000th responded to nothing in the book picker — fixed • The camera now tells you when it needs permission, instead of silently doing nothing • The Friends and Messages shortcuts open the right page again • Follower and following counts open the list they actually count • Nook polls: long book titles are no longer cut off, and empty result bars stay hidden until the first vote • You can now submit a book even when it has no ISBN — a librarian finds the right edition • Audio editions log a position and a listening time instead of page numbers Thanks for reading with Booknook — happy reading!

Your reading month, as a story you can share. MONTHLY WRAP-UP Every month you read, Booknook now turns it into a set of cards you can swipe through: the covers you finished, your month by the numbers, your book of the month, and a day-by-day view of when you actually read. MAKE THE CARDS YOURS Edit any card in the Studio — move things around, choose which indicators appear, pick your own book of the month. Your changes are saved as a draft and stay put. SHARE THE WHOLE MONTH AT ONCE Export every card to your photo gallery in one tap, or post them straight to your Booknook feed with a word about the month. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE • Images in a post now have a real Save button — no more holding down the picture and hoping. • Fixed the bug where a like would quietly undo itself a second later. Reactions retry on a bad connection and tell you when they truly failed. • Visiting someone who reads in private now explains what's shared and what isn't, instead of showing an empty page. • Books in common: a new "Also shared" tab, and counts that match what you can actually see. • A cleaner reading calendar, a Queries tab in your stats, and a clear explanation when an edition has no page count to track progress against. • The reading-status button behaves the same everywhere, and tapping a book on someone else's shelf now takes you to the right place. • The Subscription tab lists what your plan actually includes.

SHARE STUDIO — design what you share Every share card in Booknook is now a canvas you can actually edit. Pick a book, a list, a collection, a reading goal, a book haul, a book you just finished, your book club or your whole reader profile — then make the card yours: • Move, resize, rotate and lock anything on the canvas • Add text, stickers, photos, book covers, your rating or your progress • Colours, backgrounds, gradients, dots and grids, five new frames, layouts, confetti and sparkles • Export as a Story, a Square or a Post • Reset puts the card back exactly the way it arrived When you're happy with it: post it to your feed, download the image, send it through the share sheet, or copy a link. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE • Lists that count — a shared list keeps its real order, fits up to 36 books, and carries the same number or paw stickers you use in the list itself. • Book clubs worth an invitation — a Nook card is now a proper invite with your club's crest, and a public Nook has a real page anyone can open, no Booknook account needed. • Your reader card — your profile as a card: your banner, your avatar, your aura, a few true stats and a rail of covers. • Private books stay your call — posting about a book you've marked private asks first, and reveals it in that one post only. Your book stays private everywhere else. • Photos you can look at properly — pinch, double-tap and drag to zoom up to 6× in posts and messages. • Messages that actually send — photos are resized before they're sent, so a full-size phone photo goes through, and a failed send finally tells you why. • Polls about anything — Nook polls aren't only for books any more: vote on a theme, a date, or "none of these", with no duplicate options. • Better book lookups — an ISBN finds more editions, French titles included, and two different books no longer land on the same record. FIXES AND POLISH • Half stars now render as half stars on shared cards • Finishing a book celebrates even if you skip writing the review • Share Studio works on a desktop screen • A book you submit reaches our librarians reliably — a rejected one no longer sits at "under review" forever

Audiobooks now count in time. Set a book's length in hours and minutes, log your position as a timestamp, and see time elapsed or time left. Any book can be counted in pages or in time — your call. A calmer social side: • Messages have their own home — search every conversation and filter to unread • The bell is now an inbox — notifications and messages side by side • Two tabs instead of four, one card per reader, and a Following / Discover switch on the feed • See who's reading right now, and meet readers who read what you read • Privacy in plain words — Public, Friends only or Private — plus follow requests you can accept or decline Nooks you can arrange. Reorder and collapse channels, let members add their own poll options, rename discussions, and create a whole run of chapter channels in one go. Also in this release: push notifications now work properly on iPhone and iPad, French books get their series right, Paige runs on our strongest model with a new panel listing everything she can do, and plans are clearer — Creative and Premium side by side, with a 30-day free trial on Premium.

Imports fixed: Other files now come in with their ISBNs, page counts and tags intact. Many more French books show up in search — always with a cover. No page count on your edition? Set the length yourself in the reading pane, in pages or in minutes for audiobooks, and log progress as a page or a percentage. Listening time no longer inflates your pages-read totals. Clearer buy links, and no more empty session cards in your feed.

Moving in from another app? Version 2.2 makes it effortless. Import your library from Bookmory, Goodreads, StoryGraph, or Babelio and we'll add your books for you — matching them in the background while you keep reading, and letting you know the moment it's done. When we're not sure about a book, you get a quick one-tap review instead of a mess to clean up. We've also made signing in friendlier with a 6-digit email code, added per-channel progress sharing in your Nooks, and polished the experience on tablets and the big screen. Thanks for reading with us.
