After a year of books and reading in the Books app on our iPhone and iPad, it's a great time to look back and appreciate the journey we've made. This is exactly what Apple Books Year in Review offers. A feature of the Apple Books app that provides a detailed account of our reading habits during the year, and, in addition to opening doors to new and exciting literary adventures, allows us to discover what type of readers we are.
An analytical look at our reading habits
Apple Books Year in Review, a tool available for both iPhone and iPad, presents a series of automatic statistics that reflect our literary achievements. From the total time dedicated to reading to the longest book or audiobook we have completed, through the series we finished, our most-read author, favorite genre, and best-rated book, this tool covers it all.
One of the most interesting features of Apple Books Year in Review, however, is its ability to classify our reading style. Based on an analysis of anonymous data, Apple assigns us to one of six reader categories. A classification that, in a simplified way, helps us better understand our preferences and reading habits, which is very useful when choosing future readings.
To immerse ourselves in this analysis, the steps to follow are as simple as the following:
- Open the Books app on our iPhone or iPad.
- Go to the Read Now section.
- Select Your Year in Review.
In this section, we will find all the mentioned statistics, along with a detailed explanation of each reader category. A reference that, along with the app's recommendations, should help us discover more books that we can enjoy.
Similar to what already happens with Apple Music Replay, which shows us our favorite music of the year, with Apple Books Year in Review we can identify patterns and themes that we are passionate about. Necessary information to find our next great literary adventure and start the year ready to continue improving and diversifying our reading habits.
