This app it pretty bad. No way to log time to a book on your bookshelf without first removing it from your bookshelf, search for the book again, then “start reading” to enter in your time. This gets annoying when you have a long book that will take multiple sittings to complete. If you finish the book, you can’t mark it complete after logging time. You need to log your time, then go back into your bookshelf then mark it completed. This app hasn’t been updated in two years. I hope schools in the future use a different app/service for their reading fundraisers.
We are the PTO!!!,
Easy to use and helped our school raise over $20k!!!
Our PTO used this service and it was so easy to create and promote to our families. Our school and students got behind our reading challenge and had a great time. I have to give some thanks to their support team. Always was there to help us and our families. Definitely planning for next year to raise more. Our PTO group iS small but only needed myself to manage it.
