Write reviews, hit deadlines, run PR campaigns, manage review teams, view 21+ reading statistics, build your public reader profile, and connect with other readers. Built for Bookstagram, BookTok, book bloggers, ARC reviewers, beta readers, and the authors who work with them.

How does ARC Library help book reviewers and content creators?

ARC Library provides a complete toolkit: track reading progress by pages, audio minutes, or percentage with a smart pace calculator; write reviews with a rich text editor and customizable checklists; manage PR posts across social media platforms with recurring task support; view 21+ analytics charts across 7 statistics tabs; manage ARC teams, street teams, and beta teams; and create a shareable public reader profile that works as your ARC reader CV.

Can authors use ARC Library to find readers?

Yes! Authors can share ARC request forms in the Form Catalog where thousands of readers browse and apply. The Reader Database lets authors search for readers by genre preferences, trope interests, social media platforms, and reading activity to find the perfect match for their book.

What platforms is ARC Library available on?

ARC Library is available on Android (Google Play Store), Windows (desktop app), and Web (any browser). All platforms sync your data automatically. iOS support is coming soon.

ARC Library offers a free plan that lets you track up to 1,000 books with core features. Premium plans start at $8/month (or $80/year) and unlock unlimited books, full statistics dashboard, TBR planner, team management, public reader profile, and all premium themes.

What reading statistics does ARC Library track?

ARC Library offers 21+ analytics cards across 7 tabs: Overview, ARC Stats, Beta/Alpha Stats, Personal Books, Teams, PR, and Reviews. Track monthly reading trends, rating distributions, spice level breakdowns, format preferences, top genres and tropes, reading streaks, pages read, and more.

Version 2.20.2 brings 11 customer-facing changes to ARC Library. Role or platform labels appear only where a change is specific to that experience.

Improved

Search-First Book Database

Fixed

Cleaner Behind-the-Scenes Behavior

Background cleanup reduced unnecessary noise and made the app feel more polished and dependable behind the scenes.

Improved Error Handling

Fixed several places where errors could be silently swallowed, improving reliability when copying text from book descriptions.

Due Soon Section Fix

Resolved a type-safety issue in the Due Soon dashboard section when displaying mixed ARC and PR book deadlines.

God Tier Rating Now Saves Properly

Fixed an issue where selecting the God Tier (👑) rating wouldn't persist. The crown rating now saves correctly across all validation layers.

Mobile Bulk Action Buttons Fixed

The Select All and Delete buttons in mobile multiselect mode are now properly sized and no longer overlap or wrap awkwardly on smaller screens.

Format & Priority Crash Fix

Fixed a crash when opening the Format & Priority section in the Add Book wizard's Confirm step. Format options now display correctly instead of causing a rendering error.

ARC Catalog Badge Syncs Across Devices

The "Hide ARC Catalog notification" setting now syncs between your devices — hide it on desktop and it stays hidden on mobile too.

Cross-Device Theme Sync

Your theme now syncs reliably across all browsers and devices. Switching tabs or returning to the app picks up theme changes made elsewhere.

Firefox Compatibility Improvements

Fixed issues that could cause settings and themes to not persist properly in Firefox and Firefox Private Browsing mode.

Progress Tracking Mode Persists Per Book

Your chosen progress tracking mode (pages, audio, or percentage) now saves per book and syncs across all your devices. Track one book by pages and another by percentage — your preference sticks.
