Get a monthly and yearly summary of your reading
ReadingRate summarises your reading by month and by year in two forms. On the web you can generate a short written summary of any month or any year — a few sentences on what you read and how it went, drawn from the books you finished — and publish it at its own public link with an image. On iOS, a wrap of the month's numbers arrives on the first: books, hours, words and active days, plus how the year is going so far. You can also generate one for any date range you choose.
Available on web and iOS.
Two forms because there are two moments. Prose is what you want when you are sending someone your year; numbers are what you want when you are curious for thirty seconds on the first of the month.
The iOS wrap is pushed once a month and costs nothing. Behind it, a custom wrap will do the same for any span you name — a holiday, a term, the weeks you were ill — comparing it against the equivalent stretch immediately before.
The written summary is generated in your own language where it is supported, and if the model is unavailable you get a plainly-worded version rather than an error.
What it can't do
- The written summaries are on the web and the wrap deck is on iOS. Neither platform has the other's version.
- Both count finished books. A month spent halfway through a long novel reads as an empty month.
- Page and hour figures are derived from the catalogue's word counts and reading-time estimates, not measured from your actual pages or clock.
- Yearly summaries are generated when you ask for one. Nothing is emailed or posted to you automatically at the end of the year.
- The iOS wrap is two cards — the month and the year so far. The heart-rate, streak and time-of-day figures are computed but not yet shown.
- Generating a summary or its image on the web draws on your credit allowance; the iOS wrap is free.
Questions people ask
- Does ReadingRate have a Spotify Wrapped for reading?
- Yes, on iOS. A wrap of the month's numbers — books, hours, words, active days and the year so far — arrives on the first of each month, free, and you can generate one for any date range you pick.
- Can I get a summary of my reading year?
- Yes, in the web app. It writes a few sentences about your year from the books you finished, notes your strongest month, and can be published at a public link with an image.
