User reviews

Excellent all rounder comic reader

Really loved using this app. The hold zoom and panel by panel reading is what’s making me read comics on mobile again.

Best Panel Reading Experience👌

I’ve tried few other comic apps for panel by panel reading but nothing comes as close as this one. The way it zooms in on text and larger panels is just unbeatable with other apps. I personally like the overlay mode which gives you an immersive experience that is just perfect for me.

The Best Manga Reader for Me

The hold zoom feature is amazing to read on my small iPhone screen.

Beautifully designed and incredibly clean

The UI feels modern, polished, and purpose-built for comic lovers.
