Reading has, for many, been seen as a personal habit. But what if tracking your reading progress wasn’t just for you? What if your reading journey could be shared, celebrated, and even boosted by your friends?
Enter Shared Tracking - a brand-new approach to reading motivation that transforms the way we engage with books.
What is Shared Tracking?
Shared Tracking is the idea that tracking your reading with friends or a group/community makes it easier to stay consistent. Just like fitness apps help users stay on track with workouts, Shared Tracking applies that same principle to reading.
With Shared Tracking you can:
✅ Log your reading sessions & stay inspired by each other’s progress ✨
✅ See what your friends are reading in real-time & discover new books together 📚
✅ Spark friendly competition - challenge friends to read more & hit new milestones 🚀
✅ Celebrate every session together - because even the small wins deserve recognition 🎉
✅ Stay accountable & consistent - motivate each other to keep turning the pages 💪
Think of it as the Strava for books - except instead of logging miles/kms, you're logging pages, sessions, and progress toward finishing books.
Why Shared Tracking Works
🔹 Accountability = More Consistency
It’s easy to skip a reading session when no one’s watching. But when your progress is visible to friends, you’re far more likely to show up and read. Studies in behaviour psychology show that publicly tracking habits increases follow-through by up to 95% - Shared Tracking taps into this power.
🔹 Motivation Through Friendly Competition
Seeing your friends log their reading sessions can spark a competitive edge. It’s not about pressure - it’s about inspiration. If they’re reading, you’ll want to, too.
🔹 Celebrate Milestones & Stay Engaged
Reading should be fun, not a chore. With Shared Tracking, every session finished, every streak hit, and every milestone reached can be celebrated with your friends.
🔹 Better Conversations & Deeper Engagement
When you can see what your friends are reading, discovering new books becomes effortless. Shared Tracking keeps book discussions alive long after you finish reading.
How to Get Started with Shared Tracking
📌 Step 1: Track your reading sessions (in Readr soon) – Start logging your reading time and progress. Even small sessions add up.
📌 Step 2: Invite friends to join – Reading is more engaging when you can see each other’s progress. Invite a few friends to start tracking with you.

📌 Step 4: Stay connected & inspired – Celebrate milestones, send encouragement, and keep reading consistently - together.
