Put your bookshelf on your phone.

Scan a row of books, arrange them by hand, then change the wall, the shelves and everything beside them in one tap.

Try a scene

Add a whole row with one photo.

Point your camera at one row. Tibby reads the spines and shows you each match. You check them, and the books go onto your shelf in the order they stand.

A real shelfA row of fifteen books on a white shelf, from Caraval to This Woven Kingdom.
The same row in Tibby
The four books in this row that already have a painted spine in Tibby, in the same order. Other books get a drawn spine, or the spine from your photo.

Lean one, stack a few, leave a gap.

Move books by hand, lay a few flat and stand a candle on top. Pick a scene, or choose the wall, the shelves and every decoration yourself, even your own photos. Keep more than one bookcase, and switch between shelf, list and grid.

Read from your shelf every day.
