The first Book Tracker update of the year is out.
This release brings new features, improvements, and fixes inspired directly by the feedback I receive every day from you.
Book Tracker keeps growing thanks to its community, and this update is a great example of that. Let’s dive in!
You can now fully personalize the Home on iPhone and the Sidebar on iPad and Mac.
Add new cards at the top and choose what matters most to you:
tags, smart lists, series, reading statuses, and more.
Just tap Edit and make Book Tracker truly yours.
The camera barcode scanning screen has been rebuilt from the ground up.
Scanning and focus are now much faster, and multiple barcode scanning is now available on Mac and on older iPhone and iPad models too.
Adding books has never been smoother.
You can now select historical, no longer in use currencies when entering a book’s purchase price.
Italian lira, German mark, and many others are now available, perfect for older books and long time collections.
When reading a book, Book Tracker now shows an estimated completion date.
A small but highly requested feature that helps you stay motivated and better plan your reading time.
The Reading Calendar has received a much requested improvement.
If you read more than one book on the same day, the calendar now shows multiple covers instead of just one.
A clearer and more accurate way to visualize your reading history.
This update also includes several refinements across the app:
• Better online search results for books and covers
• Smoother scrolling and a more stable UI experience
• Ability to change a book’s length or convert the tracking type
• Borrowed has been renamed to Not Owned for better clarity
Plus bug fixes related to statistics widgets, reading streaks, and general stability.
Book Tracker was first released over six years ago.
At the end of December 2025, it officially turned six.
In these six years, the app has evolved enormously thanks to your feedback and support.
This is just the first of many updates coming this year.
Thank you for being part of the journey.
