Lenticule vs Restricted Section

The most advanced comic book reader for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. CBR, CBZ, and PDF with Story Time narration, on-device translation, guided panel reading, webtoon scrolling, Right-to-Left manga, 3D depth, HDR, TV & Glasses Mode, and your whole cloud collection — in a stunning Liquid Glass library. STORY TIME: PRESS PLAY Lenticule reads your comic to you. It moves from panel to panel, voices every bubble, lights up the line being spoken, and plays music that follows the mood of the scene. Pick the pace, scrub the timeline, or let it run in 3D. Prefer to read yourself? Tap any bubble to hear just that line. TRANSLATE ANY COMIC, RIGHT ON THE PAGE Found a series that never got translated? Tap the globe. Lenticule reads the lettering and paints the translation back into the bubbles — same colors, same style. Not subtitles. The actual page, in your language. Translate the whole issue while you read, flip back to the original instantly, and reword any line yourself. PRIVATE, OFFLINE, AND YOURS TO KEEP Text recognition, translation, voices, and an optional Apple Intelligence pass all run on your device. Nothing is ever uploaded. Works in airplane mode, and exports as a fresh CBZ. The app speaks English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Macedonian. WEBTOONS, THE WAY THEY'RE MADE Long strips scroll in one smooth column. Pinch to set the width, and keep reading on your Apple Watch, where the Digital Crown scrolls the strip. READ ON YOUR APPLE WATCH Send a comic from your iPhone and read it offline. Guided mode frames one panel at a time, and your place follows you back to the phone. GUIDED PANEL READING Lenticule maps every panel and guides you through the action one beat at a time. TRUE RIGHT-TO-LEFT MANGA MODE RTL flips page order, navigation, and spreads so every gesture flows right. COLOR AND DYNAMIC RANGE True Hue, Noir, and Accent filters per comic. Extended Dynamic Range brings vibrant inks, deep blacks, and highlights that shine. YOUR CLOUD LIBRARY Connect Dropbox and OneDrive, or add any folder through the Files app — iCloud Drive, network shares, USB drives. Browse by cover and download only what you read. Run your own Komga, Kavita, or OPDS server? Add its address and your library arrives with covers, series, and metadata intact. Lenticule reads the server you host — it doesn't provide comics or help you find any. SCAN AND RESTORE Scan physical comics into clean CBZ files. Enhance crops, straightens, and upscales old scans with on-device AI, and keeps the originals. SPATIAL 3D, TV & GLASSES MODE The Spatial Engine gives flat art a parallax that makes characters feel alive. Plug in USB-C display glasses — XREAL, VITURE, RayNeo, Rokid — or AirPlay to your TV, and your phone becomes the remote. BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO Open it and the hinge becomes the gutter of a real book. Stand it half open and the bottom half turns into a remote. INTELLIGENT LIBRARY Next in Series lines up the issue after the one you finished. Every comic opens on an Overview of its cover and credits, covers resize with a pinch, and metadata keeps thousands of issues in order.
