### 5/5 — Still good!

*2025-06-12, version 4.1*

IComix is still my favorite reader. Great import from Dropbox.

### 2/5 — It can only open files stored in the cloud.

*2023-01-30, version 4.1*

It can only open files stored in the cloud. Thats no good to me.

### 2/5 — Great app with one major flaw

*2022-10-25, version 4.1*

First off this is one of the few free readers that can import from cloud services like Google Drive or Dropbox, and perhaps the only one worth using. I have a large collection on OneDrive so this is ,y ride or die feature.

However the “smart” organizing feature is sorely lacking, and the entire reason I give the app 2 stars instead of 5. It works well enough when you have long sequential runs of a single title, provided you have consistent file names, but if you are trying to maintain reading order for a crossover arc, or have a large number of one-shots or TPBs it becomes quite unwieldy. It would be easier if I could just turn off and let the comics be categorized based on the folder they were imported from, and showing the full file name instead of just the number.

### 1/5 — App Blocked by Google Drive

*2022-08-12, version 4.1*

Trying to access sensitive information.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2022-07-06, version 4.1*

Used it for over a year but now I can’t upload local files or download from Google Drive, One Drive, or Box. Pointless app now

### 1/5 — Unusable?

*2022-06-06, version 4.1*

Downloaded the app to read a graphic novel series I’ve downloaded & get into reading manga. But when I went to log into my OneDrive, every time I’d enter my password the app would crash. I hope that bug will be fixed in the future, until then I’ll be using another app

### 4/5 — Great CBR reader… but

*2022-01-18, version 4.1*

… really needs to include Mega cloud storage!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-12-29, version 4.1*

Can’t load local files. Dead app?

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2021-09-22, version 4.1*

Over all, pretty easy to use. My only issue is if you download a file that isn’t .cbr the app will start to crash.
Wish there was .pdf support as well.

### 1/5 — Worked for a few days

*2021-09-05, version 4.1*

This was fine working for a few days now it crashes
