Your reading tracker, now with a finish line.
Free and built for the daily habit: streaks, milestones, and goals. Start a reading challenge and your books become one daily page count that adjusts as you read.
How it works
A quiet daily habit, in three small steps.
Your bookshelf, anywhere.
Search any title and Leaf pulls the cover, page count, and details. Scan a barcode, import from Goodreads or StoryGraph, or set a return date for library books and Leaf will pace you to the deadline.
Five seconds. That's the whole habit.
Open the app. Tap your book. Log your pages. That's it. No friction, no journaling prompts, no streaks for show.
Quiet proof that it's working.
Your streak climbs. Days check off as you read. Pages add up, week by week. Reading turns from intention into something you can measure.
Two ways to read.
Read at your own pace, or work toward a finish date. Leaf does the math either way.
Most readers start here
Flexible
Set a daily page goal and read at your own pace. Missed a day? No stress, just pick up where you left off.
Deadline
Have a library return date or a book club meeting? Set it and Leaf back-calculates the daily pages.
Switch between modes anytime, even mid-book.
Make reading a habit, three months at a time.
The Challenge Pass turns a few books and a finish date into one daily page count across all of them, redrawn as you go. Open Leaf in the evening and there is a single number waiting.
One number a day
A single page target across every book in the challenge, not a separate goal for each.
It bends with your week
Read ahead or miss a night and tomorrow adjusts on its own. Move the date or swap a book whenever life changes.
A weekly check-in
Your real numbers each week: the book, the pages left, and what that means in days.

The details that make a daily habit stick.
Streaks with a safety net
Miss a day? Log yesterday tomorrow and your streak stays. Only two days in a row starts the count over.
Rate and rank your reads
Score finished books on a half-star scale, then drag them into an S-to-D tier list and share it as a story, square, or post.
Add a book in seconds
Scan the barcode on the back cover, or search by title, author, or series. Leaf fills in the cover, author, and page count.
Library books, on schedule
Set when your book is due back. Leaf paces the daily pages and adjusts if you miss a day.
A nudge at your time
Set a daily reminder for when you actually read. A gentle prompt, never a guilt trip, with a follow-up only if you forget.
Notes and quotes, by the page
Jot a thought or capture a quote as you read, pinned to the exact page. Look back on everything that stood out once you finish. Free for everyone.
The whole series, in one tap
Add a book and Leaf finds the rest of the series. Finish one and the next is queued, ready to start.
Also included
- Goodreads, StoryGraph & CSV import/export
