Introducing Bloomy, your personal literary companion. Extremely well-read and always ready to talk books! Available with Daily Canon Premium. Plus, new lock screen widgets for quick access to the app.

TODAY'S WORK Each day, a new work arrives. A blurb written to give you the context you need without spoiling what's ahead. A key extract from the opening pages. The date it falls on and why. If it calls to you, star it to your reading list. If you've already read it, mark it done. Featured works receive the full treatment: bespoke animated themes, atmospheric visuals, and custom typography designed around the work itself. Moby Dick gets the ocean. Frankenstein gets the storm. Come back tomorrow. READING PATHS Guided journeys through the canon, each tracing a theme or tradition. Follow The Russian Soul through Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov. Explore existentialism in The Abyss Looks Back. Trace the development of the novel or the history of ideas. Think of them as syllabi, without the exam. READING LIST Three shelves for organising your intentions. The Nightstand holds what you're reading next, deliberately ordered. In the Wings is for works circling your attention. The Bookshop List is for longer-term additions. Drag to reorder. MY CANON Your personal ranking of every work you've read, drag them into order. The canon is a conversation, and this is your side of it. DYNAMIC THEMES Over 50 bespoke visual themes, each built for a specific work. Moby Dick gets the ocean. Frankenstein gets the storm. The Great Gatsby gets the green light. Animations that take the work seriously enough to dress up for it. TOLSTOY'S CALENDAR Daily aphorisms and quotes from Tolstoy's 'Calendar of Wisdom', matched to each day of the year. AUTHORS Every author has a profile with portrait, biography, and complete works list. AVATARS 23 custom author portraits available as your profile image. Shakespeare, Woolf, Poe, Dickinson, Hemingway, and eighteen others, each paired with a defining quote. ALSO INCLUDES Home Screen Widgets · Dark Mode · Daily Notifications · Pathfinder Quiz · Badges · Offline Mode · Spotlight Search · Share Cards · Year in Review

Refreshes at midnight. Tap through to today's reading. HAPTIC FEEDBACK The canon now has a physical dimension. Mark a work as read and feel it.
