Near Perfect App, However…
I’ve been using MAL for years now, it’s very convenient and allows me to keep track of what I’ve watched and what I haven’t. However, I wish there was more functionality for Manga, sure you can find manga pretty easily by typing in the name of an anime series, but there is a LOT of good manga that don’t have anime adaptations, so I think it’d be great to have some sort of way to find manga, like a “most popular” or “adapted works of the season” tab. I’d just love a better way to find and keep track of manga since it’s also nice to keep track of it or find new popular manga but can’t because there is no function for doing that. Other than that, if you’re keeping track of anime, the app is perfect.Show lessSlimo901

Thank you for your feedback. We'll share it with our team.Could use a couple of improvements but still great!
I like the different lists that you can put anime into; Watching, Completed, On Hold, Dropped, and Plan to Watch. The “Dropped” and “On Hold” lists are definitely more unique to this app. I have 2 recommendations for the app developers. My first would be to maybe make an option for the anime titles to be in Japanese as well as English. You can still search in English, but title results are in Japanese currently. Unfortunately I’m not one to memorize the Japanese translations in titles so it takes a bit more research for me to find my titles if I’m not familiar with the anime’s thumb nail. My second suggestion would be to add more Netflix original anime as well. I looked up a couple of different Netflix original anime on the app and couldn’t find them. Examples; Blue Eye Samurai, Castlevania, Lookism. These aren't ALL super new titles either so it’s not that they’re too new to be updated, unless the app is that behind on updating anime. It seems like everything has been updated as far as new releases announced from AnimeJapan 2024 which occurred about 2 weeks ago, so that doesn’t seem to be the case.Show lessAnonymousalia

I’ve used MAL for years and I remember previous apps. None were made so cleanly or so convenient as this one. It generally works better than predecessors. However my biggest gripe is probably when I’m adding several chapters if not entire series of manga or anime at a time. Selecting “complete” is not always responsive if the manga has “? volumes total”. Most of the time tapping it does nothing. It just records it as currently reading/watching and I have to constantly scroll to the right until I reach chapter 143 and THEN it highlights complete. I haven’t figured out the consistent way to trigger the issue with the anime list but it still happens. If I could at least type in the number or if there was a scroll bar that let me quickly reach the chapter I need then I think it would be fine. The app makes it easier to search and update my lists with my phone and other than my chapter/episode gripe above, the app seems stable and not clunky.Show lessReihuAE
