Scan a book's ISBN barcode to see AR, Lexile, F&P, GRL and DRA levels — and which of them QuickScan looked up. The fastest way to match students with the right books.
Reading levels looked up by ISBN — and, where a level has to be worked out, QuickScan says so.
Turn on session mode and the camera stays open between books — tap to confirm each scan and keep going, with a running session-count badge tracking every book you level as you clear the shelf.
See how your leveled library spreads across reading-level bands, and spot the gaps where you're short on books. Export a one-page Gap Report PDF — ready to hand a principal or attach to a DonorsChoose request. It shows aggregate band counts only; no student names or book titles are included.
Point your camera at a book's ISBN barcode and get results. No typing required—just scan and go.
AR and Lexile are looked up. Guided Reading Level, DRA and grade are looked up when a source has them, and marked ≈ when QuickScan works them out.
No ads, no cross-app tracking, no selling your data. Your scan history stays on your device and your private iCloud — never on our servers. Built for educators who value privacy.
View all your previously scanned books in one place. Perfect for tracking which books you've already leveled in your library.
Export your scanned books to spreadsheets or printable PDFs. Create labels, share with colleagues, or build your own book database.
See your recent scans right on your Home Screen. Check reading levels without opening the app.
Use QuickScan on your Mac with webcam scanning. Same great app, now on your desktop.
Your scan history syncs automatically across all your devices. Start on your phone, continue on your iPad or Mac.
Barcode won't scan? No problem. Type in the ISBN manually and get the same comprehensive reading level data.
BookScanner 6.5 is the same app, rebuilt — it installs over the copy you already have, and on first launch it brings your earlier scan history across by itself, reading the old library file and leaving it exactly where it is.
