In short

PageTock is an education app that helps people build a daily reading habit with physical books. Users run focused reading timers, set session goals, build streaks, log their page progress, and scan ISBN barcodes to look up book details. What stands out is that all reading history and settings stay on the device, with no account required.

About

Make a little room for reading.

PageTock helps you build a daily reading habit with the physical books you love. Make time for focused sessions, choose a goal that fits your day, and watch your progress grow—from your next page to your next finished book.

PUT DOWN YOUR PHONE. PICK UP YOUR BOOK. Start a reading timer and settle into your book. Use Dim screen to make the display less distracting while keeping your session open. If you leave the app, reading time pauses and a five-minute grace period gives you a chance to return. With notifications enabled, a gentle reminder nudges you back.

A READING GOAL THAT FITS YOUR DAY Choose your session length and one, two, or three sessions per day. Start with something manageable and adjust your goal as your routine changes.

BUILD A STREAK, ONE DAY AT A TIME Meet your daily reading goal to grow your streak. See the days you showed up and look back at your longest streak for a little encouragement to keep going.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS, PAGE BY PAGE Log the page you reached after a session. Track time spent reading and progress through each book, with up to three books in progress at once.

SCAN YOUR BOOK. START YOUR NEXT CHAPTER. Scan an ISBN barcode to look up book details and a cover. If your edition isn't found, enter the details yourself and add your own cover photo.

SEE YOUR READING LIFE ADD UP Explore your activity calendar, yearly reading statistics, and digital shelves of completed and abandoned books. Celebrate each finished book and make room for your next read.

YOUR READING IS PERSONAL Your reading history and settings are stored locally on your device. No account is required, and PageTock has no built-in analytics or cloud sync. Online book lookups and cover images require an internet connection.

PageTock is a companion for physical books, not an ebook reader. It encourages focus without blocking other apps.

Your book. Your time. A little reading, every day.
