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. ### 4/5 — Great CBR reader… but *2022-01-18, version 4.1* … really needs to include Mega cloud storage! ### 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. ### 2/5 — Used to be really good *2021-03-24, version 4.1* Seems to be broken now, can’t upload anything now. Used to work really well before ### 3/5 — Keeps shutting down *2021-01-03, version 4.1* App keeps shutting down just after opening. Any advice would be welcomed. ### 1/5 — Wish I could rate zero stars *2020-06-19, version 4.1* When you try to connect to google drive it’s states that this app is not certified by google to use drive. So the cloud support I downloaded the app specifically for does function. Waste of time if you plan to use google drive cloud support. ### 2/5 — No syncing??? *2020-06-15, version 4.1* Why is it this app will sync certain files on iTunes and not all? Tried multiple times and no luck. Never had this problem before. iTunes is updated. This happens on both Mac and pc. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Endless crashes *2020-06-11, version 4.1* Every time I try to open it, it crashes, taking all of my collection with it. Avoid. ### 1/5 — There’s nothing to do *2020-05-19, version 4.1* I saw all the great reviews about this app and I thought I might as well try it. The screen said to click the cloud icon to download some comics and I select my cloud provider and there’s no screen to download comics. It’s just a white screen that says “updating...” so if there was a way I would give this no stars but I suppose I have to give at least one ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Google drive *2020-05-04, version 4.1* App dev have no verified this app with google, therefore accessing google drive with it is not posible. ### 3/5 — Easy to use but just as good as acrobat reader *2020-04-25, version 4.1* Easy to use but it does nothing that Adobe Acrobat reader or apple books cant. ### 2/5 — Crashes upon opening *2020-02-06* After files were downloaded from the cloud the app crashes. App looked good but ultimately useless. ### 1/5 — Not verified *2020-01-31, version 4.1* Google has not verified app so drive doesn’t work now! ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly *2020-01-29, version 4.1* The current version of this app crashes constantly. As soon as I finish downloading a file to read, it crashes. ### 1/5 — Can’t sign into google drive *2019-12-30, version 4.1* Will not work ### 1/5 — Rendering pages in the wrong order *2019-11-23, version 4.1* I haven’t been using this comic book reader long, but am having issues with it rendering pages in the wrong order. I’ve looked into the cbr & cbz files and cannot see anything wrong with filenames. They are numbered correctly and still show up in the wrong order. It’s been over a year and still no fix for it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-12-29, version 4.1* Can’t load local files. Dead app? ### 1/5 — Worked for a few days *2021-09-05, version 4.1* This was fine working for a few days now it crashes ### 1/5 — Used to work.... *2021-06-30, version 4.1* Used this app for years and loved it. But now my comics APPEAR to be downloading to the app but never appear in my library. No response from support, unable to find a fix online... more likely to be Apple causing the problem than the app itself, but regardless, I’m no longer reading comics in this app. ### 1/5 — App blocked by google drive *2021-02-17, version 4.1* App blocked by google drive, Wants to access sensitive data ### 1/5 — Fav *2021-02-03, version 4.1* Please, please fix this app. It used to be my favorite (see previous review below.) After an upgrade to iOS 14.4 it crashes every time. It will only stay open a few seconds. I’d be glad to purchase a paid version of the app if only it were updated. The following is my review from back when it worked: ******* This is my favorite comic app. I highly recommend it. It is simple and fast and can download comics directly from several cloud services. One little hiccup. After iPad OS, it stopped recognizing comics sent via Airdrop. ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-01-16, version 4.1* Google Drive now blocks this app for trying to access “sensitive information”. ### 1/5 — Hmm *2020-09-03* Not authorised for google sign in so can’t use with google drive. :-) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still good! *2025-06-12, version 4.1* IComix is still my favorite reader. Great import from Dropbox. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2020-05-09, version 4.1* This app is soooo good I would also recommend getcomics.info to download free comics ### 5/5 — Nice!!! *2020-02-02, version 4.1* Easily the best free comic reader app ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2019-07-16, version 4.1* I found this easy to use and wasn’t hard to set it up as soon as u go into the app u go to load and u add your comics or any other files to the app and they are just there and u can read them when ever u want. ### 5/5 — Great for drm free reader *2018-11-20, version 4.1* I buy a lot of DRM free comics from Humble, and after several hours of trying to find a reader for my iPhone, this is the only one that seems to show up on my PCs file sharing (f u apple for being so difficult) iTunes program. ### 5/5 — Great app *2018-10-07, version 4.1* Great app works perfectly, as far as I’ve used it I’ve had no problems ### 5/5 — Perfect for my comics *2018-09-14, version 4.1* Had no problems with this app even when batch downloading over 60 comics at once, simplistic controls just perfect ### 5/5 — Best I’ve tried *2018-05-10, version 4.1* I tried 6 top rated comics readers in the App Store before deciding to go with this one. It’s free, intuitive, and offers the really nice feature of choosing background theme which make the full-screen experience very pleasant. Thank you for making a great and ad-free reader! :) ### 5/5 — Nice *2018-02-21, version 4.1* Love the app, nice and clean look and easy to use. Does the job for comics, the only thing I wanna see in this app is an added feature to choose which way to flip pages. Reading comics left to right is awesome but I also read manga which I prefer flipping from right to left. Minor thing but would be awesome if added. ### 5/5 — My go to comic reader app. *2018-01-14, version 4.1* Good app. Easy to use and organize my comic collection. I've tried many others but keep coming back to this one. Could use a bookmark function to quickly pick up where I left off. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
