Bookship – A Virtual Book Club App Review

Bookship is a revolutionary app in the world of virtual books. When opening the application, the first thing we see is five introductory slides that introduce you to the application, explain what its essence is, how to work with it, how to find the necessary book, work with the calendar in the application, and much more. Then the registration page appears. You need to create your username and password to log in and start working with the application. On the main page of the application, there are two search lines with which you can find a particular work by its name or QR code. Also on this page, there are ads for some popular novels that can also be read, which is especially attractive for the reader who has not yet decided which work to get acquainted with. The application requests access to contacts on the phone to determine whether there is a person among your friends who also uses this application.
