Introducing Book Tracker 4.3

Since 2019, Book Tracker has been the go-to app for readers who want a simple, elegant, and privacy-focused way to manage their libraries. Designed for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, it helps you keep track of every book you own, read, or wish to read, without ads, accounts, or subscriptions.

With version 4.3, we’re making Book Tracker better than ever with a refreshed design, powerful integrations, and new tools that make your reading life smoother and more enjoyable.

What Book Tracker does

For new readers, here’s a quick look at what Book Tracker offers:

• Catalog your library with ease — add books by searching online, scanning barcodes, or entering details manually.
• Track your reading progress — mark books as To Read, Reading, Finished, or Abandoned. Use the reading timer to log your sessions automatically.
• Organize your books — group titles into Series, assign them to Locations, Bookcases, and Shelves for a library that mirrors your real one.
• Save quotes and notes — capture the passages that inspire you, either by typing them in or using your camera.
• Detailed statistics and challenges — set an annual reading goal, monitor progress, and view rich stats about your reading habits.
• Sync seamlessly across devices — your data stays in iCloud, so your iPhone, iPad, and Mac are always in sync.
• Privacy first — Book Tracker doesn’t collect your data, show ads, or require a subscription. Your library belongs only to you.

What’s new in Book Tracker 4.3

Here’s what you’ll find in this new update:

Refined design with Liquid Glass

The interface has been refreshed with Apple’s new Liquid Glass effect, bringing a lighter, more elegant look on iOS 26 and macOS 26.

Smarter, faster widgets

Widgets have been expanded to give you more options to personalize your Home and Lock Screen with your favorite books and stats. We’ve also improved performance and stability.

Menu bar support

On iPad and Mac, you can now access Book Tracker right from the menu bar, making it easier to jump into your library without switching apps.

Shortcuts rebuilt from the ground up

Every in-app action is now available in Shortcuts. That means you can build automations for virtually anything, from starting a reading timer with Siri to adding a new book from a custom workflow.

Interactive Reading Timer

The Live Activity is now interactive. You can pause and resume your reading sessions directly from the Lock Screen or the Dynamic Island, without opening the app.

Expanded book formats

We’ve added many new formats to help you better catalog your library, from audiobooks and eBooks to box sets, graphic novels, and more. Your collection is now more detailed and accurate than ever.

Get the update

Book Tracker 4.3 is available today as a free update on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. If you already use the app, you’ll get all these new features automatically. If you’re new, now’s the perfect time to start organizing your reading journey.
