Boundless is a manga, manhwa, comic, and novel reader built to browse, track, and read across your own library, all in one continuous interface.
Bring in your own files (CBZ, PDF, text, Markdown) or connect a self-hosted Komga server, and plug in user-built sources to extend your library further. Everything can be read as; paged, vertical, or webtoon, with automatic chapter loading and prefetch so the next one is ready before you get there.
An account is optional. Sign in to sync your library, history, and progress across devices, or skip it and read fully offline with local files.
READING, YOUR WAY
• System, Serif, Rounded, Monospaced, or a dyslexia-friendly font, with full spacing control
• Auto-scroll, custom tap zones, and tap cooldowns
• Nine accent colors, a true black Void theme for AMOLED, and animated backgrounds
BUILT FOR APPLE
Genuinely native on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Silicon Mac, not one layout stretched across all three.
FAMILY CONTROLS
Blur or hide covers by rating or genre, and lock restricted content behind a PIN.
Full backup and restore, offline downloads, and reading history grouped by day. Boundless doesn't host or supply content itself: what you read comes from your own files, your own server, or the sources you choose to utilise.
Looking at the app I thought I found a replacement comic app for my Western comic , but it couldn’t import any of my cbz or cbr files. I can select the comic but. It tells me unable to import any files.
Developer Response

New:
[+] Boundless is now a native app, built with SwiftUI for iPhone and iPad.
[+] Type a long tracker score, like 84 out of 100, instead of swiping a strip of numbers.
[+] Trackers: Auto Link, Auto Update Status, Drop After, Check Now and a Tracker Library page. Hardcover is now a tracker.
[+] Merge Duplicates (Library, More menu): joins saved copies of one book into one card. The last merge can be undone.
[+] Missing Sources: when titles in your Library come from a source you do not have, the Library banner can search your saved repositories for it.
[+] Novels turn like a book: a two page spread lifts its leaf at the spine, and the text stays on the page through the whole turn.
[+] Novels: Text Replacement, with find and replace rules and exceptions per title and per source.
[+] Pull toward the next or previous chapter and an orb grows from the edge, shows the chapter name and pops when you can let go.
[+] A chapter title card names the chapter you move into and where it sits in the list. Show Chapter Title Card turns it off.
[+] End of a scrolling novel chapter: Previous and Next rise into room under the last line, with a countdown bar for Auto Advance and Infinite Scroll that scrolling back cancels.
[+] Chapter Navigation is in the reader quick settings for comics and novels. The options they share (chapter navigation, skip rules, chapter order) are in General.
[+] Star a chapter to bookmark it, and filter the Library by Bookmarked.
[+] Edit Details: your own title, a raised content rating, and a cover from a photo, the camera or a file.
[+] Statistics and Updates feed options, and Open Downloaded When Offline.
[+] Export is now Artifact: PDF and zip of pictures for comics, a web page or text file for novels.
[+] Spotlight finds your Library titles and opens the title you are reading.
[+] The iPad sidebar has Continue Reading, Updates and your profile.
Improved:
[/] A chapter you opened before is kept on the device, so it opens again from storage and works offline. Storage lists and clears it.
[/] In page curl mode, a swipe past the last page now opens the next chapter.
[/] Novel chapters change with a push instead of a jump.
[/] The Novels settings preview now matches the reader: text size, margins and Dynamic Type, with a Light and Dark page switch while Use a Dark Page in Dark Mode is on.
[/] The reader shows how much of a page has loaded, and tall pages stay sharp when you scroll back.
[/] Tap anywhere on an Info card to open or fold it.
[/] The Series Scores card is rebuilt, novels are found first in trackers, and local import reads manga EPUBs and MOBI chapters.
[/] Swipe Library titles across shelves, and the chip row across chips.
[/] Words and icons on an accent keep their contrast, and the alternate app icons follow their accent gradients.
[/] Library widgets keep their icons on a tinted Home Screen.
