Manga Readеr 12+

I love the massive library of manga and the categories they are divided into- but not being able to search for a specific manga is a real turn-off for this app. I don’t like having to sift through a whole category just to find the one manga in there that I’d like to read. Plus, the categories offered are somewhat vague and don’t always give you a good idea of the manga they contain. For example- Full Metal Alchemist is in the “philosophical” category with no mention whatsoever in any other category- EVEN if the description for that manga says that it is available in other categories. If you’re going that route and refuse to put in a search function, the very least you could do is categorize the manga by type, like shonen, isekai, etc… THEN subdivide them into the categories that are currently available. The first and foremost filter for finding a manga on this app should be the manga-type in my opinion.

If you’re looking for an app that has more than just a few titles look no further. Overall it’s a great app. There are 5 sec pop up ads every so often which is fine. This app would be 5 stars if there was even more of a selection, you could pay a premium to get rid of ads and you could download all chapters of a manga series with a single button and not every chapter individually. Another app MangaNelo has more manga and a premium one time pay but you can’t download from that app. My job makes it so I’m out from getting any phone signal so this app allows you to download manga. I’d recommend this app.

Issues left and right with the reading setting but what really rubs me the wrong way is how unresponsive they are. I’ve emailed 2 times 1 time was the 1st of this year with no response the next was just 3 days ago roughly with no response. Series were there then gone. Their search function hardly works and you’d be lucky to find what you’re looking for. This may not be a problem for some but it is for me since I don’t know the Japanese names for series since I don’t speak Japanese but all the manga even with the English setting on are all in Japanese so again good luck finding what you want to read. I mentioned the reader settings not working at all well getting into it and changing something will sometimes freeze the app making you close and open it but it gets better because you go to open a book to get back into the settings and it’s the settings are automatically opened and it freezes again. This app used to be good and have lots of series to read with minimal issues but now I have to be pretty desperate to use this app over a website.
