Just download it you fools! I have one complaint, and its an extremely simple one to fix. When i am in landscape mode i am forced to swipe up/down to flip the page, when i would prefer to swipe horizontal. Seems like a arbitrary restriction. And i hope it gets fixed soon. ### 4/5 — Uploading could be easier *2022-04-02* Currently I can only upload one pdf/cbr file at a time from my local device, if there could be a way where more than one can be uploaded that would make transferring my manga there much faster and not have to deal with the back and fourth. Other than that, the pro version is great and this is the exact app I was looking for. Thank you so much ! ### 3/5 — ???? *2021-09-21* Não sei usarkkkkk ### 1/5 — Can’t figure it out *2021-07-28, version 1.9.1* No explanations for anything lol ### 1/5 — Can’t add server. *2021-07-14, version 1.9.1* Need a more elaborate video on how to add servers using the different method. ### 1/5 — this app is pure garbage *2021-07-08, version 1.9.1* My title is my comment ### 1/5 — Please bring back the original MangaStorm *2021-06-21* I’ve been fighting with this app all day trying to figure out how to download manga into it. I searched online and didn’t find anything. I’m glad I didn’t delete the original on my older devices. All I want is for the Original MangaStorm app to be available for newer devices, or at least make this one easier to use. Easier to download manga. **Developer response:** Manga Storm has been taken down by Apple due to copyright issue. Manga Storm CBR is a different app with features to read comics in cbr/cbz/cb7/cbt/pdf files so it serves different purposes and doesn’t replace Manga Storm. ### 1/5 — Really don’t get it *2021-05-21, version 1.9.1* Have manga storm (blue one) so much simpler why did App Store take it off 😤 is there anything similar that’s easy to use? ### 1/5 — Nope. Not the one. *2021-05-04* I am glad that I did not delete my older app. I have not been so frustrated trying to transfer files than I have in the 30 minutes I spent trying to do so with this app. I was under the assumption that this was same as the original Manga Storm app. I was wrong. I even have some comics, that I paid for personally, downloaded on to my phone and I couldn’t even get those to show. You may as well just stick to whatever way you’re reading now than downloading this app. ### 1/5 — New app *2021-04-20, version 1.9.1* Just make make a new manga storm app and make it so we can download it from the internet or shortcuts app ### 1/5 — Confusing App *2021-03-18, version 1.9.1* I came from Manga Storm after it was deleted and it isn't that simple. In fact I don't even know how to bring mangas onto the app. I honestly don't want to use a pc to bring manga on to the app? ### 1/5 — I paid for Manga Storm *2021-03-13* I had the original Manga Storm app which I paid $3 for. I loved the app and downloaded lots of mangas through the app. Of course all the supported websites got shut down, so the app to went away. I downloaded this thinking it’s supposed to be the new version, and I’d get the upgraded version as I did previously with the original app. That did not happen. Is there a way for my original purchase to carry over into this app? **Developer response:** Sorry for your inconvenience. Manga Storm has been taken down by Apple due to copyright issue. Manga Storm CBR is a different app that has already been on App Store for many years with features to read comics in cbr/cbz/cb7/cbt/pdf files so it serves different purposes and can’t replace Manga Storm. ### 1/5 — go back to old ver *2021-03-08, version 1.9.1* used to be really good but the update is not good at all ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Adverts adverts adverts *2026-03-20, version 1.11.1* This app should be called "Advert viewer pro". Aside from that the file loading system is a nightmare - you don’t have to reinvent that. But they did! ### 1/5 — Mangastorm classic was far superior *2024-02-19, version 1.11.1* The previous version of this app was far better than this mockery of it. ### 1/5 — Pas d’accès à pcloud *2023-03-19* Application ne permettant d’accéder qu’à certains cloud. On ne sort pas de la liste. Dommage, ma bibliothèque est sur PCloud. Je passe. C’est inutilisable ### 1/5 — ??? *2022-05-28, version 1.10.0* What happened to the old mangastorm app? The one that allowed users to import comics and manga from the web and read updates as they happen? I don’t get all the five star reviews lmao You ruined one of the most convenient apps I have ever used in my life. At the very least please think about re releasing the old version that was genuinely useful to users like me. ### 1/5 — lost everything *2022-05-07, version 1.9.1* You scum won’t even honor the purchases i made in the old manga storm your con artists! ### 1/5 — Not like manga storm *2022-03-30, version 1.9.1* Manga storm and manga storm CBR are different I paid for this thinking they were the same I now regret it I miss manga storm!! ### 1/5 — Bring back the original manga storm *2022-03-11, version 1.9.1* Bring back the original manga storm ### 1/5 — No way to get Manga *2022-03-01, version 1.9.1* As a manga reader I’m very disappointed can’t find away to get my manga added and it’s very annoying been spending an hour to find ways to add manga no videos at all. Gonna take my time else where very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Not worth the time *2021-11-08, version 1.9.1* This does not have the backup function of the old mangastorm app. I thought it was behind a new paywall, so I even paid for the pro version. Still nothing. ### 1/5 — Useless App *2021-10-11, version 1.9.1* Can’t read anything on this app.Nothing shows up. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2026-02-09* Estou usando a versão pró e estou gostando ### 5/5 — Cool *2025-05-25, version 1.11.1* Hi. Nice app. But please make a dark theme🙏 ### 5/5 — Installing and adding collection *2024-06-16* After downloading the app and following instructions yeah it could of been a bit easier but the app allows you to add CBR/CBZ files easy enough if you follow what their website says to do and after following that it was much easier and I could add the story book covers from the 1st chapters to complete my collection in due time. It’s the only app that integrates everything you want to add . After trying 3-4 different apps this is one the to keep , only disadvantage is no updating your comics if they are not complete but it’s a trade off worth keeping due to copy right protection now a days . ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2021-10-30, version 1.9.1* Great app for comic lover ### 5/5 — Simply the best *2021-05-15, version 1.9.1* Thank you MangaStorm team for creating this reader. After trying (and buying) so many so-called “best” apps for reading my comic book cbr files, this (MangaStorm Pro) was ultimately the only one that allowed me to access not just cloud files, but my own treasured collection that I have stored in local hard drives over the years. Note to all: don’t fall for the hype and PR blogging blitz about the other apps. Most real serious comic book collectors actually build their local storage library over the years, and the only app we need is one that can give us the feeling of picking up a comic book from a shelf and leafing through those colourful pages, on an iPad screen if required. I am finally enjoying this experience after purchasing MangaStorm Pro. Thank you and keep up the great work!!! ### 5/5 — What happened to manga storm? *2020-12-29, version 1.9.1* I noticed manga storm was delisted and I can’t redownload it. Any reasons? ### 5/5 — Excellent application *2019-11-28, version 1.8* I love this application. I read my comic books without any difficulty. Great! ### 5/5 — A little messy *2019-11-04, version 1.8* The mobile interface is a little messy, it doesn’t display in order. Cuts off at the edge of the screen. But it’s good if you want to store your file in the cloud. ### 5/5 — Has some issues *2019-10-22* Reader is great. My problem is the comic server. For example I set google drive as my source for comics. I can search and find my comics very easily but the app keeps unloading my current comic every couple of hours. This means every tine I want to keep reading where I was instead I have to navigate to the directories and search for my comic again. Worse part are trade paperbacks because they take longer to load and losing your spot is way more annoying. Some type of caching needs to be implemented. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2019-08-07* I love this app I used another app to download NINTINDO power magazines all first 140 issues of the mag some of it was PDF but others weren’t PDF this app loads both types --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
