What it does

Candl makes it easy for an avid reader to track and plan books, set read reading goals ("read 20 books this year"), and add private notes (reviews, citations, highlights, etc.). Accompanied by mobile apps that let's add a book by scanning a barcode.

Track your books, notes, and reading goals in one private place. Import from Goodreads. No social features, no distractions—just you and your books.

A personal book tracker with smart notes, reading goals, and stats that help you read more intentionally. Add books with a single search. Mark books as reading, planned, or read. Track your progress page by page. Rate and tag everything. Create custom shelves to organize however you like. Capture regular notes, citations, reviews, and summaries as you read. Then actually remember them — Candl's built-in spaced repetition system surfaces your notes for review - so your insights come back to you like a boomerang, long after you put the book down. Create reading targets with book counts and date ranges. Track your progress on the home dashboard. Archive completed goals and keep pushing…from candlapp.com
