Great app, minor issue
I’m enjoying this app a great deal, primarily due to how easy it is to find indie comics and high quality stuff. While I love that the way that pages are layed out is annoying to browse. Instead of a standard format of simple scrolling/swiping to go between pages and then using a button to go to a different issue of the comic you scroll through about half a page to a full page of a comic then press a button to go to the next one. This makes the whole experience somewhat annoying from a user standpoint, and to my knowledge pages are what’s uploaded by the author as opposed to the more standard formats of chapters/whole issues. I can see why the system is the way it is, but I would prefer if button presses transferred between full issues and you just scrolled/swiped between pages inside a given issue.doomsoul909

Hi there, Thank you so much for the review, we're delighted to hear you're enjoying the app! Could you please reach out to contact@globalcomix.com so we can discuss the issue you're experiencing?Has potential, needs improvement
Download, signed up for subscription, and waiting for a refund a few days layer.
These are improvements that need to be made…
Sorting by series and timeline is horrible. There needs to be an option to follow a series, not just a publisher. It needs to be easier to filter what you are looking for.
Adjust the viewer to accommodate iphone notch
Allow users to hide things from the main screen that you are not interested in. It is great that there is selection, but not all the selection is great. If there is a series that I don’t want to see, allow an option to mute or hide. Example, when setting up my account, i wanted robots, zombies and sci-fi. It suggested that and a long list of mature content i am not interested in. Cant mark it no, cant make it go away, AND I CANT SHOW THE APP TO MY KIDS BECAUSE OF IT.
If the developer wants to respond, great. Love to have a conversation.Nick Soapdish?

Hi Nick, Thank you for the thorough feedback. Add to Library is the function to follow only a series and not the publisher/creator as a whole. This will allow you to receive notifications just for updates to that series. Please reach out to contact@globalcomix.com so we can discuss. We'd like to learn more about your thoughts on the shift from onboarding to the home stream to improve that experience, as well as suggestions you have for filter options.The best subscription app for western comics, but
The discoverability feels a bit chaotic, at least on mobile. I like that it tries to suggest comics based on what you like, but the Home Screen ends up being overloaded with lists of genres, at least on mobile.
The search function could be improved by allowing to search for multiple genres, as well as adding more specific search fields. The app does a good job of this, but it’s important for a comic aggregator to get this optimized.
Secondly, reading the comics themselves doesn’t feel very smooth. I like to tap-and-drag while viewing the whole comic page, but it pretty cramped and slightly unresponsive. Panel-by-panel is slightly better, but both of these options feel better on the Hoopla app.
With that being said, the variety of comics, monthly sub, app aesthetics and layout, and a majority of the app functionality are good or above average.JumpingSquiggly
