Moving your books from Goodreads

• Open goodreads.com in a browser (the website, not the Goodreads app) and go to My Books.
• Under Tools, choose Import and export, then Export Library. When the file is ready, download it. It is called goodreads_library_export.csv and usually lands in Files › Downloads.
• In Paperleaf, open You › Import from Goodreads (or say yes to importing during setup) and choose the file.
• Check the preview (how many books go to Read, Reading and Want to read), then tap Import.

Changed your mind? You › Undo last import removes the imported books and keeps anything you have logged since. Importing the same file twice won’t create copies.

Where is my data? Do I need an account?

No account. Everything lives on your phone. To keep it safe, use You › Back up now and then and save the file somewhere you trust (iCloud Drive, Google Drive, your computer).

Moving to a new phone

• On the old phone: You › Back up, and save the file to iCloud Drive or send it to yourself.
• On the new phone: install Paperleaf, then You › Restore and choose the file. Books, sessions and covers come back.
• If you have Pro: You › Restore purchases.

Restoring an iPhone from an iCloud backup usually brings Paperleaf’s data along too.

Search can’t find my book

Try the ISBN from the back of the book or its copyright page, or fewer words of the title. If it still isn’t there, tap Add it by hand: you can fill in the title, author, pages and a photo of the cover.

I logged the wrong day or the wrong number of pages

Open the book, tap the session and change it. You can edit or delete any day, free.

The widget isn’t updating

Open Paperleaf once; widgets refresh when the app saves something. If it still looks old, remove the widget and add it again from the home screen’s edit mode.

How do I cancel or restore Pro?

Cancel in iPhone Settings › your name › Subscriptions, or You › Manage subscription in Paperleaf. To get Pro back on a new phone, tap You › Restore purchases. Your journal, back up, export and delete keep working without Pro.
