A comic reader for the books you already own. CBZ, CBR, PDF and EPUB open straight from Files, your Mac, or your NAS — no unpacking, no account, no ads, and no internet needed once a book is on the device. Japanese pages you cannot read? Penguin Viewer translates the speech bubbles on your device and paints the English back into the balloon. ■ Untranslated novels in your language - Tap 文 at the top of a TXT or EPUB novel to read it translated. Tap again for the original. - The book's language is detected, and it translates to your device language or one you pick. - See the original under each paragraph, or long-press a paragraph for it. - Translated on the device. Your book is never sent anywhere. - Page curl turns pages like paper, with two-page spreads on wide iPad, iPhone Duo and Mac screens. - Vertical Japanese EPUBs turn page by page. ■ Manga and novels in one library - Drop in CBZ, CBR, CB7 (7z), ZIP, RAR, PDF or an image folder. TXT, MD and EPUB novels share the shelf. - Auto margin cropping makes your own scans fill the screen. ■ A library in your own folders - Nest Finder-style folders at any depth and drag books between them. - Import dozens at once into the open folder. Move or delete in bulk, or drag books into any order. - Folders and book order sync over iCloud without uploading files or using iCloud storage. ■ Translation that ends on the device - Manga and webtoon bubbles are translated sentence by sentence and relettered in place, vertical Japanese included. - In novels, tap 文 to read the book translated, or look up words. - Translate a whole comic in advance and pages turn with no wait. Nothing is sent anywhere. ■ Read novels your way - Font, size, line spacing, margins and background change in Text and Layout, live. - Jump chapters from the contents. Position and bookmarks carry between devices. ■ Your NAS and server library - Connect over SMB (NAS), WebDAV or OPDS, compatible with Komga and Kavita. - OPDS-PSE streams from your page with no download, so huge libraries take no storage. - Reading position syncs over iCloud. Server credentials stay in the keychain. ■ Read it the way you want - Single Page, Two-Page, or Smart Two-Page by screen ratio, plus right-to-left binding. - Webtoons scroll vertically or auto-scroll at 120Hz. Pan sideways while zoomed in. - Multi-gigabyte volumes turn smoothly. Pinch zoom works in spreads too. - A scheduled night theme blacks out the reader. Mac turns pages from the keyboard. ■ A library that sorts itself - Smart shelves file books as unread, reading or finished, and ComicInfo groups a scattered series. - Set grid columns and cover size, sort by recently opened, search by title, author or series. ■ A record that grows as you read - Reading statistics, streaks and milestones build the habit. - The reading calendar shows how much you read, iOS widgets show today's, and Face ID locks the app, hiding books from widgets and search. ■ Local AI Translation Benchmark - Measure how fast your device translates a manga page and get a PVScore. - Save and share the score card, and join the global top 500 leaderboard. ■ Honest pricing - Almost everything is free. The free library holds 30 books, plus 10 for sharing the app. - The benchmark and leaderboard are free, with unlimited runs. - Unlimited library: one lifetime Pro purchase, no subscription. No ads anywhere. ■ Privacy by default - Local first: files, translation, statistics and benchmark results stay on the device. - Leaderboard posts send nickname, score, run log and device info (model, chip, RAM, OS), all shown first. - Linking MyAnimeList sends it your title searches and volumes read. - No account, no sign-up, not a single tracking SDK. - Export your library and reading history, and restore it on a new device. ■ Good to know - Penguin Viewer supplies no manga or novels. It reads files you own. - The interface comes in 17 languages. Requests left in reviews get built quickly. Novel reading came out of one.
