### 5/5 — Kuro Manga Reader

*2026-08-10, version 2.26.11*

Honestly, such a great app to get into manga with. I really enjoyed it as a fujoshi (BL lover), and it basically has no ads even without the upgrade! They have all sorts of genres perfect for a newbie! ❤️‍🔥

### 4/5 — .

*2026-08-09, version 2.26.11*

It would be great if they would keep updating mangas, some mangas are behind or missing chapters. Even though I understand that is because of using websites, but still. Is a great app overall, and it doesn’t limit to crumbles the opportunities for readers who can’t paid! It doesn’t have ads, which for me is really refreshing and more comfortable. I hope more people get to know the app, but not shutting down the websites!

### 5/5 — It’s pretty decent

*2026-08-07, version 2.26.10*

It works very well

### 1/5 — Was a great app initially, but needs a lot of improvement

*2026-08-06, version 2.26.10*

I recently upgraded to premium, and I’m not sure whether it’s the latest update or just my app, but I’m constantly being asked to verify whether I’m human and I can’t search through the browse section of the app. as well as when I read a chapter, it will reload to a completely different chapter that I’ve already read..

### 2/5 — Broke ya app

*2026-08-03, version 2.26.10*

Ya update broke the chapters can’t read one without it returning ne back to chapter one constantly awesome

### 4/5 — Things to know if youre going to get this app

*2026-07-31, version 2.26.9*

Ive been reading manga since 2009 so ive been on my fair share of manga reader apps. Here are some things i think people should know about this app before getting it:

- Yes, you can download manga for offline viewing but you have to buy the subscription for the premium version if the app

- No, you cannot download manga chapters without having the app open. If you are downloading, you have to keep the app open, or else there will be a download error.

- There is a huge variety of manga, manhua, and manhwa.

- Each comic on the app right now says it has like 500+ chapters, thats a lie. Each comic has multiple sources, which helps when one source corrupts, but it inflates the number of chapters.

for example; a comic will have 6 Chapter Ones each from a different source, which will make a one-chapter comic seem like it has 6 chapters. 

this makes downloading manga annoying. if you have to save space and not use 8Gbs to download 30 chapters, you have to go and pick which chapter source to download for each chapter. 

i wish there was a way to filter this out to make downloading easier. 

For the free version: 

- the ads come every few chapters. which is nice when a comic has long chapters, but annoying when you read comics with short chapters (like 4-koma)

- the ads are the type where you have to wait to click 3 different times to close the ad (so it always takes like 30 seconds minimum)

- you have access to all the same comics

i dont remember if you can download anything on the free version, go look at other reviews.

Overall, it's a decent app that's annoying to use for downloading at the moment. The wide variety of comics is fantastic, they even have really old manga. 👍

### 3/5 — …

*2026-07-31, version 2.26.9*

The app is great but It’s glitching

### 4/5 — Update messed it up

*2026-07-30, version 2.26.9*

Everything was working earlier today until I updated the app. Now nothing loads it keeping going in an endless loop of verifying over and over. Please fix

### 2/5 — My review

*2026-07-29, version 2.26.8*

It's good until nothing loads. My manhwa won't load no matter what I do.

### 3/5 — It’s just alright

*2026-07-28, version 2.26.8*

Like always there’s good and bad with any reader out there, this one has a looooot of good but also waaaaaay more bad. Biggest issue broken manga (i.e. chapter 10, then a repeat as chapters 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, etc..) it’s super annoying because it makes all the different reads look like they have a ton of chapters out when really they have 20 and then 60 some-odd repeats of all the chapters broken into bite sized portions for no reason. The app itself works great usually but that is the most annoying early-2000’s-random-probably gonna give my computer a virus-ahh-garbage-website stuff. Be better.
