01
READING EXPERIENCE
The flow of printed manga,
with controls that stay simple.
The cover appears on its own before the book opens into right-to-left spreads. Switch to left-to-right reading or single-page view when a title needs a different layout.
Natural page navigation
Use the arrow keys or click either side of the viewer. A thumbnail seek bar helps you find the right scene in longer volumes.
Local files only
The app opens manga you select on your Mac and does not upload your books. Online reading and store catalogs are not included.

MORE WITH PRO
Before and after reading,
it remains your bookshelf.
As your collection grows, Pro helps you return to the right volume and page. It brings together series organization, page-level adjustments and backup for moving to another Mac.
01 / LIBRARY
Organize series and volumes
Arrange volumes by series and add authors, original creators and tags. Search, sort, move between adjacent volumes and resume from the last page you read.
02 / PAGE MANAGER
Adjust how each book appears
Save the cover, page order, display names, single-page choices and hidden pages for each volume—without modifying the images inside the original archive.
03 / BACKUP & CONTROL
Keep your reading setup useful
Export your bookshelf and reading settings as JSON for migration. Assign page navigation and other actions to USB or Bluetooth devices recognized as keyboard input.
