Mangamo Manga & Comics 12+

Good way to try out titles

The chapters available change as the publishers add and remove volumes etc. So in that way the app is different than I expected. It’s not a library where I can always read and reread the same volumes. It is, however, an excellent way to read a series before committing to a title. I’ve since added 3 titles to my physical purchase queue. My only complaint is that I often run out of things to read. On the bright side sometimes a title is dropped with various volumes instead of a single chapters so it evens out. Based on the current price of subscription, it seems worth the price. Especially since it has titles like Loving Yamada at lvl99 which is currently only available on this app.

Would love a release schedule function.

The app functions fine on my iPhone XS Max. The number of titles in the catalog is decent, but the amount of chapters available for each of them is lacking.

Of course, some series are relatively new, so they wouldn’t have many chapters to begin with, but it’s hard to tell which ones are receiving new chapters.

I wish there was a release schedule included for series that Mangamo is updating regularly. Like how the SJ App says “New Chapter in 7 days...”

That way, I know which newer series are worthwhile to start reading on here, cuz I’m not expecting them to get all of Attack on Titan for instance. So I’m not gonna start it and hold out for one day when Kodansha let’s them have more...

I’d like to follow the titles they’re simulpublishing. these regularly updated series on Mangamo should be better marked. Like how Netflix has their logo on their originals. Just another indicator that tells readers, “hey, come back to these series cuz we’ll be providing new chapters regularly.” It just reinforces the whole “release schedule” thing.

Other than that, good up. Looking forward to seeing it grow.

Pages are a mess

I really wanted to like this app. I’m happy to pay for any platforms, like Mangamo, that consolidate a lot of manga and have easy readability. I paid for one month and counselor handle it anymore and had to cancel.

I’ll give Mangamo two stars for having a pretty decent library, there’s definitely plenty of titles I would like to read. But what ruined it for me is that every single chapter I tried to read, the pages were out of order. Every single chapter. I don’t know if it’s an interface problem or genuinely the pages are available in the wrong order. It became very hard to read - I would fast forward to somewhere towards the end of the chapter to read the beginning of the chapter and then bounce around trying to figure out the correct order. It became very frustrating and impossible to read so I eventually just cancelled my membership.

Developer Response ,
