What’s New
Version 2.18
• Fixed bug where first and last page of a pdf archive would be broken.
• Fixed a crash where an archive containing file names with very large numbers would lead to an integer overflow.
• Brought back feature to not identify the file type by its uti but rather by its magic bytes. This helps if the file is named *.cbz when it is a *.cbr instead.
Ratings and Reviews
Much better!
Initially very buggy. The current version is an improvement albeit still being simple and rather rudimentary - there aren’t many features beyond sorting, tagging and changing to Japanese book reading mode. It’ll be nice to have a list-icon mode. It’s easy to drop/transfer a cbr/cbz file without issues. Reading has been smooth and pleasant with this app. Overall happy with the current experience.
Decent performance, terrible sorting
One of the few readers that can handle webp images. Nice abilities to tag and sort using various fields. However, one thing that I really dislike is the automatic parsing system that attempts to get data fields from filenames but ends up stripping away data (numbers in particular) from those original filenames and creates a huge hassle to rename and reorder files; an especially onerous task when adding large numbers of files at a time. I would rather there were an option to keep original filenames to bypass such tedious reordering, even if the parsing system is lost.
Developer Response ,
Hi Krenka-Anris, thank you for your feedback. This app allows to rename multiple files at once and to adjust their metadata: tap Select int the library, then select the comics you would like to rename and finally tap the icon with the pen in the lower toolbar. While this does not immediately fix your problem, it may easy your hassle. - DerJegge
Superb reader
After the initial experience, the latest fixes have generally made the app experience and reading experience flawless. This is generally among the best app I have used for viewing comic books and other reading materials. Love the way it handles the collections and search function.

Hi Kervin81, thank you for your feedback. To be honest, I've never encountered such a file. Could you please mail me the file to comicbookviewer@icloud.com, so that I can have a look at it? - DerJegge
Edit: Hi Kervin81, please have a look at the new update, the support for comic files with multiple folders has been fixed. - DerJegge
