📚

Your whole library

Add books manually, scan an ISBN, or import from Goodreads and StoryGraph in seconds.

⏱️

Reading sessions

Tap Start when you sit down with a book. See exactly how you spend your reading time.

📅

Reading calendar

A month view of every day you read, with the cover of what you were reading. Right on your Home Screen.

🎯

Goals that stick

Set a yearly books target, daily pages or minutes, or per-book minute goals. Streaks keep you honest.

📆

Plan your year

Drag books between months. Move your TBR from wishlist to done with an actual plan behind it.

🔒

Private by design

Everything lives on your device. iCloud sync uses your iCloud, not ours. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking.

Built by a reader, for readers.

NextShelf was built by one person who wanted a reading app that didn't want their email address, didn't push notifications about "streaks in danger," and didn't turn every book they read into training data. If that sounds like your kind of reading app too — welcome.
