KedaReader offered the most features for a reasonable one-time price. I used the free trial version of the program for a few days, and then opted to buy the full version. The app is continually being improved and the author appears to be an active contributor in the GitHub community. I had a minor hiccup yesterday when I was reading a file and locked the orientation in my iPad control panel. One page got stuck with the wrong orientation and nothing I tried could get it to realign with the other pages. I looked for a manual control in the app to rotate the page to correct the orientation but couldn’t find anything. If it’s there I missed it. If not, it would be a useful feature to have. I deleted the file from the NAS, confirmed it no longer appeared in KedaReader and re uploaded the file back to the NAS. The error still appeared. I decided that either the app or the NAS was holding a copy of the bad file in a cache storage. I checked within KedaReader and it did not have anything saved in cache, so perhaps my SSD cache in the NAS was serving up the problem file. I renamed the file on my computer and re uploaded it into the NAS. This correctly presented all pages with correct orientation. The problem did not reoccur even after renaming back to original. All-in-all this program is a keeper. It is polished and even after I totally rearranged files and folders and sub folders on my NAS, it required no adjustments to reflect the changes I made. That’s good thoughtful programming. ### 5/5 — Best comic app *2025-12-19, version 2.3.3* I love this app value for money ### 5/5 — 最好用的阅读器 *2025-12-19, version 2.3.3* 大佬牛逼 ### 5/5 — 真正懂用户的优秀应用An Outstanding App That Truly Understands Manga Reader *2025-12-05, version 2.3.3* 试用了一下午后我立刻入手。相比那些一年收 79.99 美元的阅读器，这款应用能以这样实惠的价格买断，真的物超所值。作者显然是资深漫画读者，各种细致贴心的功能都设计得非常用心。我最喜欢 NAS 支持、隐私模式、多种储存方式，以及实用的标签功能。感谢作者的努力，也期待未来持续使用并提供建议。After trying the app for an afternoon, I purchased it immediately. Compared to readers that charge $79.99 per year, the one-time purchase of this app is truly outstanding value. The developer is clearly a seasoned manga reader—many thoughtful features are crafted with great care. I especially enjoy the NAS support, privacy mode, flexible storage options, and the useful tagging feature. Thank you for the excellent work; I look forward to using the app long-term and offering feedback in the future. ### 5/5 — 翻页效果 bug *2025-11-07, version 2.3.2* macOS 下安装 iOS 应用，使用书本翻页的动画有图形 bug，微信读书也有一样的问题，希望可以修复。 ### 5/5 — 太好用了 *2025-10-26, version 2.3.1* 感谢开发！ ### 5/5 — 非常好用 *2025-09-25, version 2.2.4* 希望能添加apple阅读那样的小组件 ### 4/5 — Not support keyboard since ipad os 26 *2025-09-13, version 2.2.4* It’s all the best until ipad os 26 and suddenly you can’t use keyboard to turn pages, please fix!!

Thanks for the great app! ### 5/5 — 115网盘开发认证过期 *2026-07-31, version 2.4.3* 大佬115用不了了，有空解决呀 ### 5/5 — greatest reader of all time. *2026-05-16, version 2.4.2* amazingly great dropbox support. worth it 100%. ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP... BUTTTT *2026-05-13, version 2.4.2* kedamanga is perfect... almost... itsliterally the app ive been looking for for years. i genuinely hate apple because they only make trash apps easy to find while gems like this one stay hidden forever. i wish id found this app earlier its so good. it has so much potential i really hope they keep improving it. currently it gets stuck (crashes) when i try to open big epub files but im still giving it 5 stars because its that good. but please fix the problem with epubs if you can. thank you for developing a great app. seriously i mean you deserve all the best ### 5/5 — Seamless Cloud and Local Folder Integration for Effortless Reading! *2026-04-08, version 2.4.2* I love KedaReader’s Windows folder sharing and cloud storage linking features. It lets me easily load books and comics from local folders or NAS, without manually transferring files. It supports SMB for local sharing and integrates with Google Drive and OneDrive, giving me access anytime, anywhere. Perfect for users with large collections—highly recommended for seamless cross-device syncing! ### 5/5 — 🔥WOW🔥 *2026-03-29* After trying nearly every comic reader app available for iPadOS, I have to say that this one is amazing! The only reason I found it at all was because I asked Grok for recommendations. I must be in a small niche of users who are running a Kavita server for my comic collection (not Manga) and want to use it on an original iPad Pro that is stuck on iPadOS 16, so I am shocked that I have only encountered one bug (which I believe I have found a way to avoid). Setting this up to connect to my Kavita server using my OPDS API worked the very first time - imagine my elation! A far cry from my experience with every other app. Chunky works ok, but KedaReader is more beautiful and the ASMR/immersion/etc. extras make it OBVIOUS that other developers seriously lazy. Seriously, you have made an amazing app and I just wanted to make sure you get the recognition you deserve for it because we all too often hear more complaints than compliments in this space. Now… if you were able to somehow add the feature that the “Smart Comic Reader” app has which automatically detect panels, zooms in, & advances as you read, I would say “Game over, man”! 😎 [FYI, the bug I mentioned occurs when I open-pinch to zoom in on a page, and then tap & hold, the drag to pan around. I can’t predict it but sometimes the page rotates 90° clockwise, divides in half into two pages, and stays that way. It doesn’t affect the rest of the comic. But every time I go back to that page it is split in half and behaves as if it were two pages, each rotated 90° clockwise. No amount of tinkering yet has been able to revert this - it seems to stay saved with the comic every time I open it.] ### 5/5 — Une app fiable rapide et bien pensée *2026-02-02* Top pour les bds franco belges et les pdf. Je l’uyilise avec server komga auto hoste. Une semaine gratuite pour tester en intensif puis j’ai fait l’achat a vie de 8 eur. J’ai teste Panels en parallele, bien decu car 10 fois moins d’option de lecture et moins rapide a ouvrir les fichiers. ### 5/5 — Please add reading mode *2026-01-16, version 2.4.0* Please add reading mode, which manages the display light in such a way that there is no eye strain and original comics look like paper pages, specially for iPad ### 5/5 — 看漫画的首选 *2026-01-09, version 2.4.0* 在所有iOS漫画Apps里最最最最最好用的，没有之一！！！ ### 5/5 — 豪用 力推 *2025-12-29, version 2.3.3* 感謝盒友推薦 真的好用 爽看 ！！！ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
