About this app

Start a reading challenge in 2023 with Basmo, the best reading tracker app. Use our app as a book tracker and reading tracker to achieve your reading goals & keep a reading log. Organize your library, create book lists and reading lists and track your reading time daily. Create a reading habit and easily see your reading stats!

We know every reader forgets more than 90% of what they read within the first 7 days after reading, if they don't take notes. We also know that sticking to a reading routine to develop real reading habits and achieve ambitious reading goals is difficult.

As book lovers ourselves, we've experienced these problems first-hand. That's why we've built this app – to fix the issues passionate readers face and give everyone a smarter way to read. See what’s inside:

REMEMBER WHAT YOU READ: TAKE NOTES BY SCANNING BOOK PAGES
Saving book ideas and taking book notes is now easier than ever. Simply scan a book page, select an interesting paragraph and tap "Save text”. The app will then digitize that text and save it as a note!

UNDERSTAND HOW YOU READ: TRACK READING TIME & EMOTIONS
Start journaling about how you feel and reflecting on what you read after each reading session. Since every session tracks your reading time, you’ll always be able to look back and see your stats. A good book is not only a source of knowledge, but also an emotional journey. Tracking how you feel while reading can bring out more value in the books you read, encourage you to re-read it, or even make you want to share it with someone special.

ACHIEVE YEARLY & DAILY READING GOALS
Engage in reading challenges that stimulate you to read more. Easily keep track of all the books you've read this year to achieve your Yearly Reading Goal. Set a new reading challenge for 2022, and track your progress onwards!

DEVELOP A DAILY READING HABIT
After adding your yearly goal, our app will suggest a daily number of minutes for you to read each day to reach your goal. Forgetful? Don’t worry, we’ve plugged in some friendly reminders to make sure you stay on track. Every time you achieve a target or goal, we’ll celebrate with you!

ORGANIZE YOUR BOOKS INTO READING LISTS
Every book carries its status and we make it easy for you to add them to your bookshelf. Simply add and delete your own collections in order to sort books according to genre, topic, or priority.

With our PRO subscription, you’ll soon become the reader you always wanted to be:

I can see how it can help people read more, but for the free plan - one session a day? It's too little for people who like to read sporadically, and switch to different books in a day. I was so excited to have an app to track my books and thoughts on them, but I was quickly disappointed that only the premium plan could provide that. Also adding pictures doesn't work. hope the Basmo team can make some changes in the way of reading sessions, because this is a great concept.

Hi Fariha! I sent your feedback to our developers and our product designer. We will release an update to fix the picture adding issue, we promise. On the 1 free session/day: we will most likely open it up thanks to your honest feedback. Thank you for taking out the time to send us your suggestions! Could you maybe consider a 5-star rating? Thanks!

I use the free version and it is so easy to use and track reading books. It encouraged me to start reading more and the idea of tracking reading through 'streaks' is something I find encouraging. Would recommend this app if you struggle with organising thoughts around reading, as well as if you just need motivation to read more.

I love this app! It works so well as a reading tracker, I love the timer and the ability to add notes. The only thing I wish it had was the option to see others' reads and connect with friends as I'm trying to move away from using Goodreads and this is the one thing keeping my on that app. Apart from that, it's amazing!
