Participate in reading fundraisers: Raise money for your organization with reading! With Beanstack’s reading fundraisers, you can earn badges while collecting donations to fund important priorities at your school, library, or company.
I really like this app for doing Library reading challenges. I wish that you could search for other reading challenges when my local library isn't hosting anything. I would also love if this app connected to Libby. We read a lot of our books from there and it would be nice to track both easily.
Great for tracking your family's reading. Wish it could scan multiple books at a time as well as connecting with other members of the same group
Love this app, simple to use & great for tracking books! However, I had to knock off a star because the ISBN scanner no longer works. Hope they fix it soon.
That's an awesome app! we love it!
It's okay. A little prone to freezing and kind of a clunky user experience. I'm hoping it gets more intuitive over time.
I love this app is very useful to login the books you have read to your kids.
Typically a wonderful app, but the new update has been VERY glitchy. Screens often freeze, load at snail place, or the app crashes.
Various bug fixes.
