## What is Comicpendium?

Comicpendium keeps track of the order you read comics in.

Pick a reading order, mark issues as you finish them, and always see what's next. Whether it's a long crossover event or a single series, Comicpendium shows your progress, your next issue, and what's coming out.

FOLLOW ANY READING ORDER
• Import reading lists (CBL files) or browse community reading lists
• Universes, lists and series, each with progress and an Up Next issue
• Long lists fold into runs by series, so a 700-issue order stays easy to scroll
• Mark one issue, a whole run, or everything up to here as read

STAY UP TO DATE
• New this week and Upcoming on Home
• Follow a series and new issues appear automatically
• Release alerts on release day or as a weekly digest (with a free Metron account)

COVERS AND DETAILS
• Cover art, summaries, creators, characters and story arcs, from the community-run Metron database (free account, your own login)

OPTIONAL: YOUR OWN COMIC SERVER
Already have a Komga or Kavita server? Connect it and Comicpendium shows which issues you own and which are missing, keeps read status in step, and reads your comics in a built-in reader:
• Page curl, slide or fade page turns, pinch to zoom, left-to-right or right-to-left
• Two pages at a time when you turn your device sideways
• Optional panel-by-panel reading that zooms from one panel to the next
• Save issues for offline reading; choose a storage limit; finished issues clean up after themselves
• See everything missing from a list or a whole universe, as ranges, and share it as a shopping list
Comicpendium contains no comics of its own and never links to any. It works with the files on your own server.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No accounts, no ads, no analytics
• Everything stays on your device and, if you like, in your own iCloud
• Server keys live in the Keychain

TRY IT FIRST
Add the free sample comic, Pepper&Carrot by David Revoy (CC BY 4.0), to see how it works without connecting anything.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-11-08

• iPhone Duo: show the comic's cover on the outer screen while you read unfolded (optional; it asks the first time).
• The comic you're reading, with its cover and page, on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
• Reader page choices say what they do: two pages sideways and one upright is the default.
• Panel by panel on iPhone: zooms until the lettering is easy to read, splits big panels between speech balloons, and glides from one step to the next. Pick the text size in the reader menu.
• Hold your iPhone sideways to read a page at full width: tap the edges to scroll down the page, then on to the next one.
• Pages made of wide panels suggest turning your phone.
• More reliable taps in the reader: the middle and the top and bottom edges show the controls, the sides turn the page.
• Panels are found on more pages, including ones with grey or coloured gutters.
• Fixes a crash that could happen just after marking an issue read.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-11-04

Fixes for the latest iOS: choosing several series to download for offline reading works again, and the app's version number is now reported correctly.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-11-03

• Reader: choose automatic, one page or two pages.
• Collected editions (trades) now show and read as one book, and finishing it marks every issue read.
• Better matching of Komga folders, plus a preferred server and a Compare servers screen when you connect two.
• Up Next cards have a button to open the series.
• Download several series at once or a whole reading list, and "Keep next unread ready" on Wi-Fi.
• Home carries on from what you read last.
• iPhone Duo and iPad: layouts follow the fold, with a side-by-side series screen on a wide window.
• New default theme: Graphite (Midnight is still a choice).

### 1.0 — 2026-10-30

No release notes.
