For people who love the books they own.

Volumes catalogues your shelves across iPhone, iPad and Mac, remembers who borrowed what, and keeps the quotes worth rereading.

Colours drawn from the covers of Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion and Emma, the way Volumes colours your library.

01Build your library

Every book in, cover and all

Start with the shelf in front of you, or bring the one you kept somewhere else.

  • Scan a barcode and the book is added, cover and all.
  • Add a book from Safari, Amazon or Goodreads with Share, even one with no ISBN.
  • Bring your history over from Goodreads, StoryGraph or LibraryThing.
  • Keep a wishlist, and tell Siri when you've bought one.

02Know where every book is

Pick up where you left off

Your page, your progress, and the shelf it lives on.

  • Record which room or shelf each book lives on, like “Living Room”.
  • Log your page and see your progress at a glance.
  • Remember every time you've read a book, rereads included.
  • Set a book aside without calling it a failure.

03Find any book fast

Find any book in seconds

Ask in plain words. The filter is worked out on your device.

  • Combine filters, like unread books in the Study.
  • Save a filter you use often and reopen it in one tap.
  • On iPhone, point the camera at a cover to see if you already own it.

04Lend without losing track

Lend freely, get them back

Always know who has your books, and since when.

  • Note who has a book and the day it left.
  • Hand the record to a friend who has Volumes, over AirDrop.
  • Keep the quotes you saved from a borrowed book after you give it back.

05Keep the quotes you love

Keep the quotes you loved

Underline without a pencil.

“I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m learning how to sail my ship.”
Louisa May Alcott · Little Women · p. 411
  • Save a quote with its book and page number.
  • Photograph the page instead of typing it out.
  • Put a favourite quote on your Home Screen with the quote widget.

06See your shelves in numbers

Watch your shelves grow

How your library has grown, year after year.

  • Count the books still waiting to be started on your own shelves.
  • Watch how many books you add each year.
  • See who has borrowed the most from you.

07One library, every device

Glance, then keep reading

Your current read and a favourite quote, with no app open.

  • The same library on iPhone, iPad and Mac, kept in step automatically.
  • Stored in your own iCloud, with no account to create.
  • Ask Siri who has your books, or log the page you reached.

iPhone · iPad · Mac

One library, on every shelf you sit at

Open the same library on your iPhone, iPad and Mac. Lend a book from the sofa and it’s marked on the desk before you sit down.

Your books are nobody else’s business.

No account to create

Your library lives in your own iCloud. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to sign in to.

Kept in sync, quietly

Add a book on your iPhone and it is on your Mac by the time you look. No exporting, no syncing button.

Worked out on your device

Type “unread books in the hallway” and the filter is built on your phone, not on somebody's server.

Your books. Your shelves. Your app.
