Yomu is a manga, comic, and webtoon reader for iPhone, iPad, and Mac that lets readers browse, read, and organize content from hundreds of sources in one library. WHO IS YOMU FOR? Yomu is built for manga readers who want one app for all their reading — whether you follow series from online sources, connect self-hosted servers like Komga or Kavita, or read your own CBZ, CBR, EPUB, and PDF files from local storage or a NAS. HOW DOES YOMU WORK? Add a source repository and hundreds of manga, manhwa, and manhua sources appear in the app. Browse, search, and read directly — no browser tabs, no sideloading. Yomu also connects to WebDAV, SMB, NFS, and OPDS servers, and can use an iCloud Drive folder as a library. WHEN SHOULD I USE YOMU INSTEAD OF A BROWSER? Yomu downloads chapters for offline reading, syncs progress across devices via iCloud, and tracks your reading on AniList, MyAnimeList, Kitsu, and MangaUpdates automatically. You keep your place across hundreds of series without managing bookmarks. CAN YOMU TRANSLATE MANGA? Yes. Yomu uses on-device AI to detect text in manga panels and translates to 27 languages with text wrapping that fits the original speech bubbles. AUTO ZOOM — PANEL-BY-PANEL READING On-device AI detects individual panels on each page and glides through them one at a time — turning dense manga pages into a cinematic, panel-by-panel reading experience that works especially well on smaller screens.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: ComicDeck at none against Yomu's shown. Yomu's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
