The best reader experience
It does everything it says, and does it so well. Clean and simple interface, iCloud integration that just works and I love the panel by panel reading experience on my iPad. As a bonus I can use it on my MacBook now also, so cool to have my books with me wherever I go.
Lack basic features and crashes on large imports
For a paid app, it definitely is disappointing. It lacks some of the basic features relating to importing using OPDS or better ways to import and view your collection.
Importing a large library will crash the app where the storage space will be used but the library will be empty. Clearly the devs did not test the app thoroughly. For what it's worth, I use an iPhone 14 Pro Max and I was trying to import 7GBs of data at once split in 50ish volumes.
The smart zoom feature is nothing to write home about either, especially for comic books that will alternative between the layout of each block. You will need to flip your phone constantly and locking the screen orientation simply defeats the whole purpose. There are better apps out there, both paid and free options.
I regret my purchase and would definitely not recommend for the time being. Not having the ability to try the app prior to purchase is pretty telling.

Great for reading manga
Very glad I took a chance on buying this. Works like a charm for reading manga on iPhone. It goes panel by panel rather than page by page so it’s even easier to read than a physical copy.
Closing Immediately
As soon as I open the App, it is shutting down immediately . It is used to be good and now it’s closing immediately.
So geht das - ist sensationell gut
… und könnte für die gebotene und mit den letzten Update nochmals angehobene Qualität gut und gerne ein paar Euro kosten. Sollte es vielleicht auch, um die Weiterentwicklung zu unterstützen. Die bei Comixology einstmals bewunderte und offenbar gar nicht so leicht zu realisierende Panel-für-Panel-Funktion funktioniert hier perfekt. Smart Comic Reader ist mE konkurrenzlos.
