Best Alternatives to Delicious Library

For years, Delicious Library was a favorite tool for cataloging books, movies, and other media collections. However, with no recent updates and official support coming to an end, many users are now looking for a modern, reliable alternative.

If you’re wondering what to use instead of Delicious Library, here’s a look at the best options.

Why You Need an Alternative to Delicious Library

Delicious Library hasn’t been updated to support the latest macOS versions, and its features are increasingly outdated. Without regular updates, using old software can put your data at risk and make it harder to manage your growing collection efficiently.

Choosing a new app now ensures your library stays organized, accessible, and backed up securely.

Best Alternatives to Delicious Library

Here are some of the most popular alternatives:

• Book Tracker (iOS, iPadOS, macOS)

A modern, privacy-first app focused on cataloging your book collection.

Book Tracker offers daily backups, Smart Lists, Widgets, and full support for iCloud sync across devices.

• Libib (Web, iOS, Android)

Good for managing small to medium collections. Also supports movies, music, and video games.

• LibraryThing (Web, iOS)

A more social cataloging platform with a large community, better suited for users who want recommendations and discussions.

Each alternative has its strengths, but if your main goal is to catalog your books quickly and privately, Book Tracker is a top choice.
