Step 1
The main idea
When you set a finish date, Firefly automatically marks the book as read, sets progress to 100% and shows it in the calendar on the finish date.
Step 2
How to add a previously read book
- Open Add book or a Firefly recommendation.
- Choose “Read previously”.
- Select the finish date.
- Confirm adding the book.
Step 3
How to update a book already in your library
- Open the book details.
- Tap “Edit”.
- Open the “Progress” tab.
- Set the reading finish date.
- Save the changes.
Step 4
What appears in the calendar
The book will appear on its finish date. Firefly does not create artificial reading days between the start and finish dates.
Step 5
If the book is already in your library
Firefly does not create a duplicate. It shows that the book is already in your library and opens its card.
