Rukomi is a comic reader and local library manager built for comic collectors. Import and organize comics on your iPhone or iPad, or access remote libraries through SMB, WebDAV, or OPDS. When supported by the server and file format, you can start streaming immediately without downloading the entire file first. 【Broad Format Support】 Supports comic archives, documents, ebooks, and common image formats, including ZIP/CBZ, RAR/CBR, PDF, EPUB, MOBI/AZW/AZW3, JPG/JPEG, PNG, WEBP, GIF, HEIC/HEIF, BMP, TIFF/TIF, and SVG. No manual extraction or conversion is required—import a file and start reading. 【Open a Remote Library and Start Reading】 Connect to a computer, NAS, or remote library through SMB, WebDAV, or OPDS. Supported files are loaded on demand, so you can start reading without waiting for the entire comic to download—ideal for large collections. 【Multiple Ways to Import and Access】 Import individual files or entire folders from the Files app, or transfer comics to your local library over Wi‑Fi. You can also mount folders or connect to SMB, WebDAV, OPDS, and cloud storage to access local and remote collections in the way that works best for you. 【AI Image Enhancement】 Intelligently reduces blur and jagged edges in older comics for a more comfortable reading experience. 【A Reader Designed for Comics】 Adapts to manga, Western comics, and vertical-scroll comics with right-to-left, left-to-right, and vertical reading. Choose your preferred page transition and use two-page view, split spreads, edge cropping, and auto-read to make every session feel natural. 【Organize Your Local Library】 Manage your local collection with folders and tags. Search, sort, pin titles, and choose from multiple library layouts to find what you want quickly. Reading progress is saved automatically, so you can pick up where you left off. 【Keep Track of Every Reading Session】 View reading time, pages read, reading streaks, title rankings, and your reading calendar. Look back on your reading history and see every session add up. 【Create a Reading Space of Your Own】 Choose from multiple themes and display settings, and personalize your reading space with custom fonts and theme wallpapers.
