New app Phictly connects book and TV show lovers

Technology Nov 21, 2025

Phictly just launched for iOS and Android, making it easy for fans of books and TV shows to connect in small, focused clubs.
Inspired by Nyleena Aiken's own family book club, the app is all about bringing like-minded people together for real conversations around their favorite stories.

Features and what's next

Clubs are capped at 20 members to keep chats meaningful, with customizable timelines so everyone can read or watch at their own pace.
Handy tools like spoiler-hiding and "Talk Points" make discussions smoother, plus you can track your progress and set goals—kind of like Goodreads but more social.
Coming soon: matching with users who share your interests, and even clubs for video games.
