A good concept. I like the idea of a book tracker mixed with a social media platform. But the execution leaves A LOT to be desired. I wish StoryGraph had the social aspect otherwise I would only use that app. Lots of bugs, and missing features that other apps have. Needs more than just polish.

I loved this app all year. It had an update recently and now the app won't open. Hopefully it will be fixed soon so I can add more books to my library

Love the layout but can't export my books from Goodreads from my phone so I have to do it manually which would be fine except over half of my books aren't listed so I have to submit them. Who has time for that? Going back to Goodreads
