How it works
Three things, done well.
-
Add your books
Search by title or author, scan a barcode, or photograph a whole shelf at once and let Leafin read the spines. Coming from Goodreads? Bring your whole library over in one go — every row is accounted for.
-
Read with the timer
Start a sitting with one tap, in silence or to the sound of rain. The timer stays on your Lock Screen while you read, and when you stop, Leafin asks what page you reached.
-
See your year
Your streak, a goal for the year that never scolds, a calendar of the covers you read, and recaps of the week, the month and the year to keep or share.
The shelf
Your library, as real spines on a real plank.
Every book stands in cloth the colour of its cover. Want to read, reading, read and didn't finish each have their own plank — drag a book from one to the next. Arrange them by colour, author, height or date — or by hand — and share the whole shelf as a picture.
Passages
Keep the lines worth keeping.
Photograph a page and tap the sentences you want. Leafin reads them on your iPhone, keeps the page number, and turns any passage into a card to share — with the title and author always on it.
Stats and recaps
Watch the year fill up.
Books, pages and hours, the days you read and the moods of what you read. Every week, month and year gathers into a recap made to share, and your goal keeps count without ever making you feel behind.
Discover
Something good to read next.
Hand-picked collections to read your way through, each book with a line on why it is there. Leafin also finds more by the authors you rate highly, and Pick for me chooses from your Want to read shelf by length, mood and pace.
Widgets
Your reading, at a glance.
The book you are reading, today's minutes, your goal for the year and your shelf, right on your Home Screen — and a reading ring beside the clock on your Lock Screen. Tap one and Leafin opens where it should.
Why Leafin
Calm, private, and made with care.
No ads. Ever.
Nothing is sold, and nothing is shown to you that you did not put there.
No account
Nothing to sign up for and no password to forget. Open it and start.
Your data, in your iCloud
Your library lives on your iPhone and syncs through your own private iCloud. We never see it — there is no Leafin server to hold it.
Unlimited books, free
As many books as you own, and the shelf, the timer, the scanner, your goals, your streaks, and light or lamplit dark — free for good.
No tracking
No analytics, no advertising identifier, no third-party code watching what you read.
Yours to take with you
Export your whole library, reading time and passages to a CSV file whenever you like.
What readers say
In their words.
Leafin Plus
For making more of it.
Everything above is free. Plus is an optional subscription for readers who want the rest.
- Passages without a limit. Twenty are free; with Plus, keep as many as you like, have them come back to you, and use every card style and the passage widget.
- Every shelf picture. Every size and style, and the shelf as a wallpaper.
- As many shelves as you like. Three shelves of your own are free.
- Your whole reading history. Every year you have read, each set beside the last.
- Recaps in every shape. Weekly, monthly and yearly, in every size.
- Pictures without the credit. Your shelf pictures, recaps and cards without the small Leafin at the foot.
- Every ambient sound. Forest and ocean as well as rain.
$29.99 a year, with the first month free
$4.99 a month
Nothing is ever taken away. If Plus ends, your books, shelves, passages and history all stay exactly where they are — only making new Plus things stops.
Prices in US dollars; the App Store shows the price where you live. Billed through your Apple Account, and cancel any time in Settings.
Questions
Asked, and answered.
Is my reading private?
Yes. Leafin has no account, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. Your library is kept on your iPhone and in your own iCloud, where we cannot see it. Looking a book up asks public catalogues — Open Library, then Google Books — with nothing that identifies you. The privacy policy has every detail.
Does it sync between my devices?
Yes, through your own iCloud. Sign in to the same Apple Account and your books, sessions, passages, shelves, goals and settings follow you. Without iCloud, everything still works on the one device.
Can I bring my library over from Goodreads?
Yes. Export your library from Goodreads as a CSV file, then choose Settings › Import from Goodreads in Leafin. The import tells you what was added, what you already had, and anything it could not read — every row is accounted for.
How do I cancel Leafin Plus?
Choose Settings › Manage subscription in Leafin, or open the Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Cancel a free trial at least 24 hours before it ends and you are not charged. Nothing you made is lost when Plus ends.
Can I export my data?
Any time. Settings › Export your library writes a CSV file with every book, your dates, ratings, reading time, passages, moods and pace. You can always leave with your data.
Is Leafin only for iPhone?
Yes, for now. Leafin is for iPhone, running iOS 17 or later. There is no iPad, Android or web version.
