LinQfolio

LinQfolio is a free social network for readers, available on iOS and Android. It brings reading updates, book recommendations, swaps, and conversations together in one place, helping readers share what they are reading and connect with others who enjoy similar books. Users can create personalized profiles based on their genres and reading pace, scan book barcodes to add titles to their libraries, and organize books into shareable lists of titles they own, have finished, or want to read.

The app also offers public and private reading circles, ratings, short reviews, a social activity feed, and messaging for discussing books or arranging exchanges. Through its local swapping feature, members can offer a book and coordinate an in-person handoff. A daily mystery-book game adds another way to engage with reading.

LinQfolio is free to use, with no credit card required, and does not sell users’ data. The service is hosted in Europe and states that it is GDPR-compliant
