A cosy home for your books

Where your reading blooms.

Petal keeps everything you read in one beautiful place. Every book you finish grows something in your garden, your series keep track of themselves, and your reading becomes something you’ll love to share.

The garden

Every book you finish grows something.

Finish a book and a flower blooms, sized by how much you loved it and coloured by its genre. Keep reading and your world grows: a pond, butterflies, a little cottage. Pick the world that feels like you.

A garden of flowers, one for every book read

Everything in one place

Built by a reader, for readers.

All the things you’d keep in a notebook, a spreadsheet and three other apps, finally in one lovely home.

📚

Your whole library

Paperbacks, ebooks and audiobooks, with editions, special copies, loans and your wishlist. Scan a barcode or import from Goodreads.

🧭

Series that track themselves

Petal knows what comes next, shows the books you’re missing and tells you when the next one is out.

📈

Stats you’ll want to share

Pages, hours, streaks and your year in books, with story-ready cards for Instagram.

🎯

Goals and streaks

Set a goal your way (books, pages or minutes) and keep a gentle daily streak going.

🏅

Badges

Little rewards for the reading you already do, from your first chapter to a thousand pages.

💌

Postbox

Send a friend a book you think they’ll love. Private, just between you.

Petal Community

Your reading, your portfolio.

A reader profile that finally shows who you are as a reader. Your favourite series, your top books of the year, what you’re reading right now, and every place people can find you.

  • Reading highlights that update themselves as you read
  • Find readers who love what you love, and follow along
