How can we help?
A person reads every message. Most questions below have an answer you won't have to wait for.
For anything about your account, your records or the app itself. Include the app version from Settings if you can; it saves a round trip.
Common questions
A reminder didn't arrive
Reminders depend on your device letting Cratelog send them. Check notification permissions and any Focus or Do Not Disturb schedule first, then open the box and check the deadline itself; a reminder is generated from the dates you entered.
A skip deadline looks wrong
Deadlines are calculated from the billing date and the skip rules recorded for the box. Open the subscription and check both; sellers move deadlines more often than you'd think. Correct whichever changed and the countdown updates.
Can Cratelog skip a box for me?
No. Cratelog reminds you and routes you to the seller; the skip itself happens on the seller's site, under the seller's terms. Record the outcome afterwards and your allowance and countdown update.
Importing from Goodreads or StoryGraph
Export a CSV from either service, then go to Settings · Import. You'll see exactly which fields become records before anything is saved, and the original file is not kept.
Why aren't my currencies converted?
Converting would mean inventing an exchange rate you never paid. Cratelog keeps $, £ and € as separate figures, and totals are shown per currency.
Exporting your data
Settings · Data · Export. Everything you've recorded, in a machine-readable format, any time, without asking us.
Deleting your account
Settings · Delete account. Your records are removed from live systems within 30 days. Deleting your Cratelog account has no effect on any subscription you hold with a seller; skip or cancel those with each seller first.
A box or book is missing from the catalogue
Submit it from the add screens; Cratelog will offer the option when a search comes up empty. Submissions are reviewed before they're published, so allow a day or two.
