## What is Lenticule?

Lenticule is the most advanced comic book reader for iPhone and iPad. CBR, CBZ, and PDF with on-device translation, guided panel reading, Right-to-Left manga, 3D depth, color modes, pro HDR, TV & Glasses Mode, and your whole cloud collection — in a stunning Liquid Glass library.

TRANSLATE ANY COMIC, RIGHT ON THE PAGE
Found a series that never got translated? Tap the globe (or the translate option in the menu). Lenticule reads the lettering and paints the translation back into the bubbles — same colors, same style, same energy. Not subtitles at the bottom. The actual page, in your language.

Translate one page or the whole issue in the background while you read, flip between original and translated instantly, long-press a bubble to see the original, and fix any line you'd word differently.

PRIVATE, OFFLINE, AND YOURS TO KEEP
Everything runs on your device — text recognition, translation, and an optional Apple Intelligence pass that smooths phrasing and keeps names and tone consistent across pages. Nothing is ever uploaded. Works in airplane mode. Love the result? Export it as a fresh CBZ and read it anywhere.

The app itself speaks English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Macedonian.

GUIDED PANEL READING
Lenticule maps every panel and guides you through the action one beat at a time. No manual scrolling, no lost place — just the story, flowing as the artist intended.

TRUE RIGHT-TO-LEFT MANGA MODE
Read manga the authentic way. RTL mode flips page order, navigation, and double-page spreads so gestures, panel guidance, and transitions flow naturally.

COLOR MODES
True Hue for artist-accurate color, Noir for striking black-and-white contrast, and Accent to spotlight one color while the rest fades to grayscale — per comic, and they combine with HDR.

YOUR CLOUD LIBRARY
Connect Dropbox and OneDrive, or add any folder through the Files app — iCloud Drive, network shares, USB drives. Lenticule catalogs covers and metadata without downloading everything, so you can browse thousands of issues and pull down only what you'll read.

SCAN YOUR PHYSICAL COMICS
Scan straight from your camera and Lenticule turns the pages into clean CBZ files — automatic edge detection, perspective correction, and optional AI enhancement that sharpens and upscales.

SPATIAL 3D DEPTH
The Spatial Engine separates foreground subjects from background layers, giving flat art a subtle parallax that makes characters feel alive.

TV & GLASSES MODE
Plug in USB-C display glasses — XREAL, VITURE, RayNeo, Rokid — or AirPlay to your TV, and your comic fills the screen. Your phone becomes the remote: turn pages, zoom, pan, and dive into 3D without looking down. Side-by-side glasses get true stereoscopic depth, and disconnecting hands your place back to the phone.

PRO-GRADE HDR RENDERING
Extended Dynamic Range pushes your screen's full brightness and gamut — vibrant inks, deep blacks, highlights that shine.

SILKY SMOOTH PERFORMANCE
A tiled-rendering pipeline keeps even huge PDFs and CBZ archives scrolling without a hint of lag. Zoom in and catch every detail.

INTELLIGENT LIBRARY
Automatic metadata, covers, and thousands of issues organized effortlessly — inside a premium Liquid Glass interface built for iOS 26. Export any comic as the untouched original, an optimized copy, or with custom quality settings.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.12 — 2026-08-09

A LIBRARY THAT KEEPS UP WITH YOUR COLLECTION
Drag the A–Z rail down the side of your library and land on any series instantly — no more thumb-flicking past four hundred covers to get to the S's. Everything stays grouped by series, so a long run reads like a run instead of a wall.

KNOW WHAT YOU'RE HOLDING
Comics that carry metadata now show it: writer, artist, publisher, volume, story arc, summary, page count. Tap Info on any cover for the full picture, and it comes along when you export.

JUMP STRAIGHT TO A CHAPTER
Issues with embedded bookmarks get a chapter jump bar in the reader. Handy for collected editions where "somewhere around page 210" used to be the best you could do.

THE CLOUD TAB, REDONE
Your Dropbox, OneDrive, and Files folders now browse by series with covers, and your library quietly tells you when more issues of something you own are sitting in the cloud. Download the one you want, leave the rest where they are.

TRANSLATION GOT A LOT BETTER
Lettering now picks up the original ink color, breaks lines the way a letterer would, and handles manga's vertical text and sound effects far more gracefully. Names and terms stay consistent from page to page, pages translate ahead of you while you read, and you can edit any line you'd word differently. Quality of translations is better too.

FIXES
Guided panel reading on PDFs behaves itself again, plus faster translation, lighter memory use, and a round of localization touch-ups.

### 1.11 — 2026-08-01

INTRODUCING COMIC TRANSLATION
That series that never got an official translation? Tap the globe (or the option in the ... menu). Lenticule reads the lettering and paints the translation back into the bubbles — matching colors, caps, and lettering style, so the page still looks like a comic and not a homework assignment. Works on manga's vertical lettering and double-page spreads too.

SHARPER WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE
On supported devices, Apple Intelligence polishes each page — smoother phrasing, consistent names and tone from page to page.

COMPLETELY OFFLINE, COMPLETELY PRIVATE
Text recognition, translation, and refinement all run on your device. Nothing is uploaded, ever. Works in airplane mode.

EXPORT THE TRANSLATED COMIC
Save your translated issue as a brand-new CBZ to keep, back up, or read anywhere.

LITTLE THINGS YOU'LL LIKE
Translate one page or the whole comic in the background, flip between original and translated instantly, long-press a bubble to see the original, and fix any line you'd word differently.

NOW IN SIX LANGUAGES
Lenticule itself now speaks English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Macedonian — plus the usual round of polish and fixes.

### 1.10 — 2026-07-11

INTRODUCING TV & GLASSES MODE 
Your comics, on the biggest screen you own. Plug in USB-C display glasses (XREAL, VITURE, RayNeo, Rokid and more) or AirPlay to your TV, and the page fills the screen - no chrome, no clutter, just the art.

YOUR PHONE IS THE REMOTE
Turn pages, follow guided panel reading, zoom, pan, and launch 3D straight from a dedicated remote screen - you never have to look down. Theater mode dims the phone while you read.

STEREO 3D ON GLASSES
Flip your glasses into side-by-side mode and Lenticule renders true stereoscopic depth - your comics literally pop out of the page.

SEAMLESS HANDOFF
Connect or disconnect any time: your comic, page, and zoom carry over instantly between phone and big screen. A quick two-surface tour teaches you the ropes the first time you connect.

POLISH & RELIABILITY
A new in-app Help Center, refreshed onboarding, and a range of fixes for the smoothest Lenticule yet.

### 1.9 — 2026-07-08

YOUR CLOUD LIBRARY HAS ARRIVED 
Bring your whole collection into Lenticule, wherever it lives. The new Cloud tab connects to Dropbox and OneDrive, and any folder you add through the Files app — iCloud Drive, network shares, USB drives, and every other provider on your device. Lenticule catalogs your comics with covers and metadata without downloading everything, so you can browse thousands of issues and grab exactly the ones you want to read.

DOWNLOAD ON YOUR TERMS 
Tap to download a single issue or grab a whole batch — downloads run in the background with pause and resume, and finished comics drop straight into your library with covers, metadata, and panel detection ready to go.

POLISH & RELIABILITY
Under-the-hood improvements across importing, browsing, and syncing, plus a range of bug fixes — for the fastest, most reliable Lenticule yet.

### 1.8 — 2026-06-15

EXPLORE SPATIAL 3D UP CLOSE
Pinch to zoom and drag to pan around the Spatial 3D scene, with resolution-aware maximum zoom so details stay sharp.
