Lomo turns a reading list into a customizable digital bookshelf and journal. Readers can add books by scanning an ISBN, track print, ebook, and audiobook formats separately, and record reading sessions with a timer or manual entries. The listing also describes reading statistics, yearly and daily goals, quotes, reviews, and imports from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or Bookmory. The developer says the app works offline without an account or ads, with optional iCloud or file backup. Lomo is described as free without feature limits; readers may leave an optional tip that unlocks nothing. It is designed for organizing and reflecting on books, not for supplying ebooks or audiobooks.
