You meant to finish that book. You opened it, then life happened. Six months later it's still on page 47. Ankitto is for the part of you that misses being a reader — and hasn't quite figured out how to come back.
Three screens you'll actually use — a home that celebrates the small wins, a session timer that doesn't shame you, and highlights that stay with the passage.
No goal-setting rituals. Open the book, tap start, read. Sessions log themselves.
A gentle calendar that notices the days you showed up. Miss one, no shame — pick up the next.
Highlight passages inside the reader. Add a note. Come back to them later — they don't disappear.
A timer that respects your attention. Start it, read, stop. Ankitto remembers what you read, for how long, and where you left off — so you don't have to.
A quiet counter that celebrates showing up. Not a punishment for missing a day. Break a streak, start a new one — the app is on your side.
Mark passages inside the reader as you go. They live with the book, searchable, exportable, yours forever — not locked away in someone else's ecosystem.
Attach thoughts to any page. The half-sentences that only make sense right after you read them — the ones you always wish you'd written down.
I read zero books in 2024. I'd opened plenty. I just couldn't finish any of them.
That was the year I decided every reading app I'd downloaded was built for people who already read — not for people trying to come back. They tracked pages I wasn't turning. They congratulated streaks I'd already broken.
So I built the thing I wished existed: a tracker that meets you where you actually are. One that notices the small wins. One that doesn't shame you for the gap.
Ankitto is what came out of it. It's on the Play Store today. If it helps you get back to a book you loved — that's the whole point.
A free PDF for anyone rebuilding the habit — with or without the app. I'll also email you when Ankitto lands on iOS.
The kit is on its way. If you don't see it in 2 minutes, peek in spam.
Free on Google Play. Two megabytes. One reader who built it.
