A lovely little online/offline comic viewer. Zero ads, decent variety of file formats, EXCELLENT variety of online file sharing services (I hadn't even heard of Ubooquity), and EVERYTHING is configurable - back key action (any screen in the app), volume keys (vol-up can go forward, backward, or just adjust volume), you can set a fixed screen orientation, turn off the page turn animation... I should mention I haven't tested the online functionality at all, but it looks quite extensive.

"Google drive" is hidden behind "Open Web". Google Drive is not a website. I never tried it since I wasn't trying to open a comic from a website, but rather from my drive. There are a number of very, very basic UI expectations which are hidden; to select a directory to upload to a new comic book library, you have to long-select any individual file in the directory you wish to add and wait for a pop-up to ask you if you want to use the whole directory. The app is functional but has some fundamental UI/UX issues.

Great viewer, been enjoying for many years. Encountering a bug with auto loading of .rar files, where it won't automatically reload after the app cold boots. Tried all the different settings. What's annoying is it will auto load properly if you back to home and reopen it, so it's purely a bug.

Ive tried 5 or 6 Other comic viewer apps and this is the ONLY ONE ive found where i can load my Own digital collection. Unfortunately the Only single problem i have is while in the middle of reading a comic it will revert back to the menu screen...thankfully hitting the load last viewed file takes me back where inwas but it happens a dozen or so times Per comic. (Reading on a brand new Asus zen note) if that problem were corrected this app would be a Perfect 5 star

Generally works well, but I'm experiencing a strange issue: the image quality is worse in portrait mode than in landscape. I'd like the option to read in either without this compromise. I'm on the Google Pixel 2, but my friend has the same issue and he has a different phone (not sure which though).

Not possible to zoom. Very frustrating. Googling and cycling through the menu with its advance/basic toggle... No pinch nor double tap zoom. It does work on my Note8. But not my Samsung J3 Emerge. Eboox works good though... This is my go to reader when it does work. On my Note8 it's my favorite. But for books on my son's phone I am so frustrated trying to dig through settings and google to find how to zoom, just doesn't work.

This is a great app, fast, intuitive and easy to use, and many options to customise how the comic/book displays. The only problem is PDF, it seems to not be able to render PDF properly and many times will appear fuzzy, especially when my tablet is in landscape. A number of my PDFs are unreadable on Challenger due to this and I have to use the tablet's default PDF reader which doesn't have the same intuitive interface. If this issue with PDF was fixed I would easily give this app 5 stars.

So here i had this 600 chapter collection of a comic, trying to convert each to one cbz then to movi for kindle (phone) after numerous tries, gave up, searchex, found a few apps, didn't like em, specially popup ads. Searched, found this, tried, the comics are neatly stacked. If at all, i have one suggestion though, if detailed mode (list view than grid view) could be enabled. If a file's name is too long it doesn't show it completely..
