You’ve just finished a book and have no one to discuss it with? Byzans is again the app for you.

4 stars for now as I have just installed and it's a great app all in all. Very easy to use, the layout is easy on the eyes. I just wish there was a way in the My Books tab to group / filter the books as Read, Currently Reading, and Want to Read just like in Goodreads. So that it's easier to track the number of books per category. I do not know any other apps like this one, so I think this is brilliant.

The app is incredible. The interface is a hundred times better than Goodreads. It's very smooth and easy to access things. The groups are very good. I like that there are clubs for each book. However, I'd like to suggest adding three features: one is the reading challenge bar, another is the book recommendation list, and lastly the option to chat with your friends/followers one-to-one.

This app has great potential. I really love the social media aspect of the app. The design is also really clean and easy to use. I really hope more people start using this app cos it is great! A couple of things I'd like to see is a dark mode and maybe a rating system. Doesn't need to be a fully fledged review-writing thing, just a star rating. Also being able to organise the 'my books/clubs' menu a bit better cos once you've added a few books, the list is quite bulky.

Hi Jake, it took us some time but we now have a rating system and a dark mode in Byzans. We hope to see you soon there!
