My FAVORITE Bookish App 🥰

BeFreed helped me fall in love with reading again. It fits perfectly into my routine, no matter how packed my day is.

The helpful reminders and options to schedule days to read made it easy!

It condenses nonfiction into:

→ 30-min deep dives

→ 20-min podcast-style explainers

→ 10-min flashcards to actually retain what matters

I've been using this for about a year now and I love it!! It does have a pro version available for purchase, but honestly it has so many features without it that it doesn't feel necessary to me. ☺️ #readingapp #reading #readersoflemon8 #books #booktok #favoriteapps #Lemon8
