### 4/5 — Useful & quick

*2011-05-29, version 1.1*

This app isn't meant to read all 1500+ pages of a comic strip, it is there to be able to read the newest strip in the morning with a quick coffee before work if you don't have time to have a look on the computer before you leave - and for that it works brilliantly.

### 3/5 — Dust covered basement of the app store library

*2011-05-11, version 1.1*

Disappointed with the neglect of the app, it's a great idea and I enjoy it, but it's buggy and slow, and there is a lot of wasted opportunity for added features. I will probably continue using it, but only for comics I am all the way up to date on, so I don't have to sift through them or deal with the hassle. Features like displaying alt text, jumping to a specific page of a comic, and saving your place, along with debug and update would definitely make this at least a 4 star, more comics or the ability to add your own easily would bump that to a 5.

### 1/5 — sigh.

*2011-05-05, version 1.1*

yeah it is a free app, but you know what? it's been neglected. for over a year and a half. the dev's have completely abandoned this web comic app, and it was so promising too. their are adds, bugs, glitches, and not to mention slow. if you scroll down on the last release, it was in 2009

2009!!!!! it's two years later. just ignore this app. the developers don't care if you get it or not. there hasn't been a single update since BEFORE the iPhone 3GS even came out!

I hope one day this app will get an entire redo, but I'm not going to waste my time.

*app; deleted*

### 1/5 — Rather crappy.

*2011-03-27, version 1.1*

Doesn't save your spot, and crashes pretty often.

### 1/5 — This bites

*2011-03-14, version 1.1*

This app stinks on toast it takes forever to load has adds even though that's what it's supposed to be. Penny arcade doesn't even work. Whoever writes this needs to either upgrade the app or start interviewing for a job. Prefferably not in computer design. Don't even waste the drive space.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2011-03-12, version 1.1*

Wanted pa but wont display. Cool idea, if only it worked. :/

### 1/5 — Doesnt like penny arcade

*2011-03-09, version 1.1*

Downloaded this to read penny arcade and it doesn't seem to want to. Also wouldn't let me use landscape mode (not sure if that's even supported). Overall a good idea but needs way more work.

### 1/5 — This is crap.

*2011-02-05, version 1.1*

Crashed 3 times before I read three comics, and Penny Arcade doesn't appear. To the maker of this app: don't quit your day job.

### 1/5 — Kills QC's (Jeph Jacques') income!!

*2010-12-30, version 1.1*

Jeph (and his wife) BUY GROCERIES using the income from ads on his website, QuestionableContent.net

He has stated repeatedly that any software which *blocks* or *removes* these ads is STARVING HIM.

If you're going to make a mobile-friendly version, please WORK WITH HIM (and other webcomic artists) to ensure they can still *MAKE A LIVING* from *DOING WHAT THEY LOVE* (their life's passion).

Don't remove these ads.  It's the artists' lifeblood, and the only way they pay their bills.

### 4/5 — For those who love comics

*2010-12-23, version 1.1*

Great app
