Finding help difficult
mdputhoff
I just started using this app and already it is irritating. I can’t figure out how to clear the notification note on my icon. I well and truly hate those nasty numbers. I wish there was a way to get notifications without the numbers appearing. But that is more an Apple problem than a Bookly problem. Secondly, trying to find the help files to find out if the help files show me how to clear that notification symbol. Took me 10 minutes and I’m still not entirely sure I found what I needed.
It’s pretty good

It organizes your books and it helps you keep track of your speed, books you’ve read, etc. I would recommend
Love it but needs improvement

I want to love this app more than what I already do, but no matter how hard I try it gets harder every time. To me the app can be a bit more user friendly. I sometimes don’t know where to go if I want to write to the support team when I encounter a problem. It gets confusing where Togo to find your books vs where to search for new ones. Overall, it works great on my phone so far. I started using it with my tablet and it got funky. I logged in to my account (which I have a yearly subscription) and it won’t let me add new books when using it on my tablet but it does when using it on my phone. Weird. Not sure if is a glitch.
Fun but one problem

This is really nice to have and I really like it. I like how it is like a bookmark packed into a app. Here’s the problem. Who takes their iPad with them everywhere. What if you went on a trip and your iPad was packed away and all you had was your book. I get that you can add in time and pages but who keeps a stopwatch with them all day? I like this app but I would rather have my own personal bookmark.

I love to read and often forget to. The reminders keep me on track and all the data gives me insight into my habits.
Great app for readers

I really love this app. It keeps track of my reading and lets me set goals. The infographics/stats are enough to show you progress, but not so many that you feel overwhelmed. I like that you can scan books to add them to you library. It even does picture to text so you can save favorite quotes easily. I think having a few small tweaks will help the app a lot. The library page could have more than one option for viewing books (currently its a scrolling swipe) as well as making it easier to organize the books. Like maybe being able to click and drag to order in my own way would be nice. Also sometimes it’s difficult to find the edit buttons on the different pages.
