**Short answer:** In LectorApp you **set how many pages you want to read each day**; as you update your reading, **a bar fills up** until the "Goal reached!" message. To start, a goal of 10 to 20 pages a day is usually realistic and adds up to several books a year.

## How it works

1. Set the pages you want to read each day.
2. Read and update the page you're on.
3. Watch the bar fill up to "Goal reached!".

## How many pages to read a day

Pick a number you can hit even on a bad day. For reference, for a book of about 330 pages:

| Pages a day | Pages a year | Books a year (330 pages each) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 10 | 3,650 | about 11 |
| 20 | 7,300 | about 22 |
| 30 | 10,950 | about 33 |

*Indicative calculation: pages a day × 365 ÷ 330 pages per book.*
