Ratings and reviews

The search experience is kinda awkward, and downloading the comics is a bit messy because sometimes it'll just cancel, or it can forget you even downloaded in the first place. The image quality is a bit low but I think it's because they allow you to screenshot, so they don't want you reposting the full quality. Overall it's alright.

For a long time this app was nonfunctional for me: the shop wouldn't show new releases, and it wouldn't let me buy any comics at all. That seems to have been fixed, but with the new version the quality of the comic pages has been cranked waaaaay down and they look awful. If you're selling comics, the most important thing is for them to look good! I cannot recommend this app.

Would be a 5 star if not for one major issue. I had to purchase a comic TWICE! I purchased Sonic volume 1 and started to read without downloading the comic. I had to go do something mid read so I closed the app. When I opened the app again there is no option anywhere to read the comic. The only thing I could tap on was the purchase button. There isn't a "My purchases" or anything like that. So I purchased it a second time and downloaded it this time. I was, however, robbed of $10.
