    Thank you for this comparison of reading trackers! This video gave me so much insight into how these different apps work and what might or might not be a good fit for my tracking needs.

      Glad it was helpful! I realized that we all have different things we want from our reading Tracker.

    Great review. Couldn’t agree more about Good Reads. I was so mad about Book Tracker deleting my ratings as well! I wanted to switch so I tried everything else and nothing does it for me. The tags look pretty and it’s all nice and clean. I ended up just redoing all my ratings and sticking with it.

      @@Vivslittlelibrary it's actually super interesting to see how all the different apps work, but also there is no one perfect one! like I wish so much that the features for some of these were combined into one app!!

    Do you know if theres a book tracker that can be synced with kindle and audible to track your reeading across platforms?

    • @Vivslittlelibrary
      @Vivslittlelibrary  Před 5 měsíci +5

      I would love that… since both of them are owned by Amazon the only one that could technically do that would be Goodreads but since Goodreads hasn’t been updated in 5 years I don’t think there is any app that does that…😬

      Not really… I usually sort them by genre if you look at my latest bookshelf reorganization video you can kind of see what I did☺️

    The story graph statistics are fantastic, and once a year I will delete all my books and reimport my data. BUT statistics are only helpful if they're accurate. And I always find things in wrong categories, wrong languages, wrong formats... Plus a lot of the statistics are subjective. A "slow paced" book for one person might be "fast paced" for someone else.

    • @Vivslittlelibrary
      @Vivslittlelibrary  Před 9 měsíci +2

      Yeah I have the same issues a lot. They have a lot of preset categories… but I am pretty sure the mistakes come from just uploading the data. If you were to use this as your reading tracker it would be better because you could actually set the genres yourself ☺️

      @Luumus Před 5 měsíci +7

      If you find an error in any book, just send over a ticket, the librarians will fix it for you in no time. As for wrong formats or languages in your stats, if you go to the book in question in (editions) you can just switch the book you are or have read into whichever format/language/edition you want

      Pros ably BookTracker since you can have a really great amount of books and still understand what you are doing☺️

    So I’ve tried some apps, and sadly, nothing is good enough. I hate how goodreads works and looks. I hate the analystics. BUT it’s the only tracking app, which has always all of the English books, shows you which part of the series the book is, all of the books from author.

      @iammehowru Před měsícem +2

      Storygraph definitely does this. Any missing book can easily be added with the isbn too

    great video Viv. I’m an iOS developer and I’m currently working on a book tracking app as well. It’s going to have a very modern looking UI with lots of animations and what not; I can share once I get closer to release if you’re interested! Anyway, it’s great to consume these kinds of videos and see what users want/expect. Your voice is being heard, I’m taking notes ✍️

      They have a lot of great features but not the right tracking for me. I usually only track a book once I’ve finished reading it. With this you sort of track as you go. But if that sounds great to you then that might be the app for you🥰
