Crazy! I was so much more shocked by the book's ending 🫨! I wanted to know more but alas. I'm curious now what people thought of it...

I am over the moon to share that the app is officially live on both iOS and Android!!

We've quite literally poured our blood, sweat and (lots of) tears into the app development over the past 9 months and we could not be more thrilled for everyone to experience it!

We're still being indexed in app store search so you may have to scroll to find us, or type in Pagebound: Social Book Tracker. Here's links to iOS and Android: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pagebound-social-book-tracker/id6751526412 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.pagebound.app

There are quite a few improvements and new features in the app, including:

• Book Journeys (click the map icon on the book cards in your library and other user's library to see their posts, comments, and updates for a specific book)
• Quick access to "add to plan"
• Filtering your activity on profile
• Save posts
• upgraded Read Dates editing

This is the first release, so there will be many more additions and improvements to come. (PS for Android users: we're aware of two bugs related to library imports from Goodreads/Storygraph, and issues with editing read dates - these have already been resolved and are pending Google approval for release.)

We owe a huge thank you to our beta testers who worked diligently over the last month to report hundreds of bugs and help us get the app prepared for release. A huge round of applause to them.

We hope you love the app as much as we do; it definitely makes engaging on PB so much more convenient and fun. If you have a great experience with the app, we'd love if you'd consider supporting us through Pagebound Royalty; Lucy and I have worked for $0 over the past year to bring the app and website to fruition, and have been covering business costs with our savings accounts. Your contribution means we can continue to work full-time on Pagebound without influence from investors or advertisers, and keep Pagebound 100% for readers by readers. Thank you so much to all the Royalty who have already contributed; it truly means the world to us and keeps Pagebound online!

ok now go download the app and tell us what you think!

Happy Reading, Jennifer & Lucy

PS - leaving us a review in app stores also helps tremendously :)

Well, I finally did it.

I went through all of my books I imported over from Goodreads and reorganized my shelves, I culled my SUPER old TBR list, I even double checked that all my physical books are on my PB shelves and now ...

My TBR is sitting at 698 books, not including the handful I've already started.

aAaaaaaAAAA!!!!!

Here I was thinking my 25 books were enough, I feel like Rory Gilmore crashing out about not having enough extracurriculars for Harvard. I need to be reading like 100 books a year to even make a dent in that list!

How many books are on your TBR???

Hey all. Lately, I have been struggling a bit with my mental health and have been spending my afternoons and evenings rotting in bed reading. 🛏️ I don't have as much mental energy as I did a couple of weeks ago, when I'd be super proactive and interacting with everyone.

To be honest, I'm not sure if this is particularly healthy, but having notifications on the app makes that moment a bit better. However, I get a little bummed out if I open the app and see I have no new notifications.

Does anyone else feel like this?

But I just want to note that PB community has been helping me a lot. Seeimg so many wonderful people here makes things feel brighter. ✨

I've seen comments that say things like "my feed is too busy, I hardly use it" or refer to feeds on the Discuss pages that I rarely visit. So where are some of your favorite spots on the site to be? Or maybe some features that you think are cool? (just to remind us all how great PB is!)
