### 4/5 — モダンな漫画ビューアで、ストリーミング可能なアプリの最高峰

*2026-07-19, version 9.99*

モダンなビューア画面を搭載していて、NASなどからzipファイルなどをストリーミングするアプリとしては、一番良いアプリだと思います。

ただ、以下の理由からストリーミングだけでアプリを利用する場合、詳細にカスタマイズはできなさそうなので、注意です。

◽️不満点
・NAS上のフォルダに対してショートカットを作成したときにフォルダ画像を設定できないため、本棚ではどんな本が入っているかはフォルダ名からしかわからないため、直感的ではない。(画像を設定したい)
・NAS上のファイル単体でショートカットが作れないため、ストリーミングを前提とした本棚(フォルダ)は作成できない(ダウンロードが必須になってしまう)

### 2/5 — 不具合 / バックアップフォルダーに移動したい

*2026-05-29, version 9.99*

追加:
複数冊を選択してフォルダーに移動する作業を行うと、毎回1冊が外れ、近くにあるフォルダーが代わりに移動されてしまいます。とても不便なので早めの修正を希望します。


バックアップ対象にならないフォルダーに、たくさんのコミックをセットしてしまいました。
なんとか一括でiTunesバックアップ対象のフォルダーに移動できる機能をつけていただけないでしょうか…

2026/05/05追記
新規フォルダーを作成するとアプリが落ちるのを修正してください。

### 4/5 — 好用，但希望支援連續畫面

*2026-05-09, version 9.99*

希望能有垂直滾動無分頁感的方式。看韓漫不能無段垂直滾動很可惜。

### 5/5 — 이 어플 산지 얼마나 됐지?

*2026-04-09*

진짜 기억도 안나는데.. 애플 보다 업데이트가 더 길어.. 가격은 수십분의 일인데도 불구하고~ 최고 입니다!!

### 1/5 — 前のバージョンに戻させて

*2026-04-03, version 9.99*

[2026年4月3日追記]
最新リリースでも直っていません。

[元の記述]
少し前の更新から、ストリーミングモードでrarファイルを開けなくなりました。修正される予定もわからないので、当面は正常だったころのバージョンに戻させてください。

### 1/5 — Please add JPEG XL support

*2026-04-02, version 9.99*

JPEG XL/JXL saves a lot of space and supports lossless transcoding of JPEG files, so it's very ideal for archiving comics, please add support.
iOS/iPadOS/macOS all have added built-in support for JXL for some time, so it should be very easy to enable support in your app. Thanks.

### 1/5 — アスペクト比がおかしくなる

*2026-03-25, version 9.98*

最新版にアップデートしてから拡張ディスプレイで見ようとするとアスペクト比がおかしくなり、読書中に設定ボタンなども押せなくなった

### 1/5 — トラブル

*2026-02-24, version 9.97*

数日前のアップデート後からrar形式のファイルを読み込まなくなりました。修正を求めます

### 3/5 — バグ発見

*2026-02-24, version 9.97*

リモートとかのメニューのページを開いている状態で
インカメラ周りの環境光センサー？に触れるの画面が真っ黒に暗転して操作が効かない

ios アイフォン14proにて

### 1/5 — 至急改善を

*2026-02-23, version 9.97*
