Search your books in plain words

Say what you're looking for

Type into search and Volumes offers the filter as a pill to tap. Common phrasings are understood on every device; harder ones use Apple's on-device model where Apple Intelligence is available. Nothing you type is sent anywhere.

Or build it yourself

Combine authors, publishers, series, locations, lists, reading status, who borrowed a book, lent out, borrowed, and the year you finished.

• Sort by Recently Added, Name, Author or Published, either way round.
• “Loose ends” filters: no shelf recorded, no cover, not in a series.

Save the ones you use

Save a filter and it sits as a pill above your library. Rename them, rearrange them, and reopen one in a tap.

From anywhere

Find a book from Spotlight, or say “Search Volumes for…” to Siri and the library opens already filtered.
