What is a book tracking app?
A book tracking app is a place to keep track of your books: the ones you own, the ones you've read, and the ones you want to read next. Instead of a messy spreadsheet, a notes app, or trying to remember it all, everything lives in one place you can open from your phone or your browser.
MOBS — My Online Bookshelf — is a free book tracking app that treats your collection like it matters. Scan a barcode or search a title, and your book drops onto a real, beautiful shelf with its cover, author, and details filled in automatically. Then track it however you like: mark it read, add it to your TBR, sort it into its series, and decorate your shelves in the theme that fits your reading mood.
I built MOBS because I couldn't find it. I went looking for a simple book tracking app to organize my growing collection — and every single one hit me with a paywall before I could really even use it. So I made the app I wanted: one that tracks every book you own, read, and want to read, looks beautiful doing it, and never locks the good stuff behind a subscription.
What you can track
Keep a reading log of every book you finish, and watch your reading add up over the year with simple stats.
Line up the books you want to read next so you always know what's coming — no more forgetting that title a friend recommended.
See which books in a series you own and spot the gaps at a glance, so you can finish what you started.
Scan a barcode or search by title — covers, authors, and details fill in automatically.
Keep a wishlist for the books you're chasing, with one-tap buy and pre-order links — even future releases.
Shelve your books like your real bookcase and dress them up in 20+ living themes — not just another boring list.
Most book tracking apps start free, then lock the features you actually want — bigger libraries, stats, custom shelves — behind a monthly subscription. MOBS doesn't. Every core feature is free for everyone, because that's the whole reason it exists. Here's what readers use it for:
Prefer the term "digital bookshelf"? That's us too — MOBS is both a digital bookshelf and a full book tracking app, in one free place.
