After trying multiple comic reading apps (all of which had their own pros), this app has been the best overall, with the most features that I find beneficial. Even the free version is great. The only issue I have is that I cant connect it to my Google Drive, but that isn't even the apps fault since Google is the one that restricted access.

So I upgraded to the pay version mostly because while the ads really weren't bothering me, they have increased to every 5 or ten pages they pop, whatever but I had some credit so why not. I found customizing the app eat less user friendly than the free--I don't get it either. Contact the developer and instead telling me how to fix so I can swipe from a finished book to the next one he keeps sending me to a webpage to read pages and pages, and guess what? Didn't tell where to find the option.

I want to like this app, but it has issues. I store all my comics on a network drive and access via SMB. With CDisplayEx it has issues displaying certain pages of any random comic at any given time. Whereas another app called Comic Screen displays just fine via SMB. Having the paid version of CDisplayEx, I really want this to be my go to app, but this has been an issue for for some time, but it appears to not be an issue with my setup, but the app itself.

Love the app. The smb and the color correction are the easiest and best out there for comics on Android. Almost 100% fits my needs. The only thing I wish you'd implement are more fit to options. I'd like to see Fit Visible Fill Visible Fit height (these exist) Fit width (these exist) Original (these exist) So really only adding the two (fit and fill Visible) would make it perfect. Hope to hear from you.

Ever since a few updates ago, when you start the app your comics are out of order. You have to swipe down to refresh and after a few seconds, they order themselves properly again. Before these updates, the comic covers loaded instantly and in the right order. Updates that make the user experience slower and more annoying...

Ive been a user, and fan, of the free version for years now. And while the ads on that app can ruin the immersion sometimes, more often than not it was only a mild annoyance. But 6-ish dollars for the complete version? Sign me up! Purchased it a few days ago and havent regretted it since, nor plan on doing so either. Love the product.

Honestly this is probably the best comic app available. The only feature I wish could be added is progress syncing on multiple devices I have all my comics stored on g drive and read them on multiple devices so it would be nice to have a way to sync them. Other that it's nearly flawless.

I've tried many others, but this is the best comic reader available on the Play Store. Dear Developers: Please don't stop here. There's always room for improvement. The app could benefit from a more modern UI and easier navigation between different sections. You are doing a good job keeping the UI simple and uncluttered, but that doesn't mean you can't have more customization or features.

Awesome app I've used for years: simple, attractive design, very capable. One recent problem: for some reason switching from an old Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 to a new Tab S8 Plus caused the app to load files and thumbnails very slowly, and to re-load them repeatedly after they'd already been loaded. It's weird that on the faster device the app is much slower, and has hiccups.

This is the best overall comic reader now (if your goal is to read comics/manga files you already own). If you want to discover and buy new comics, many publishers have their own app for that. I picked this one because I used the desktop version for years. Unlike that old (but still decent) app, this one is still updated.
