Great Comic Reading app!

Works great on the iPad PRO! It’s like reading full sized comics!!!! (Single pages ARE full size!)

Great app for reading and sorting and storing digital comics. This is worth buying.

I used to have this rated with 5 stars BUT while it works on my iPad Pro I’m having a problem that many people are complaining about in the forum: When loading the app it asks for your iTunes Store password and won’t let you past that spot unless you login and if you are NOT on WiFi this is a problem; many people are having to reboot to get out of this spot. The author has been unresponsive in the forums for months so not sure what is going on of if they are even supporting the app any more (no communication in the support pages for 5 months). I’ve switched to Chunky which has great features for free (and even more AWESOME features if you pay the in-app purchase, which is still less than the cost of Comic Zeal))

Reading is very easy and does a great job of page turning/flipping (you can make it so “flips” are instant (this is important for some comics). It’s very fast too. It handles rotation and zooming and scrolling very very well.

It’s a great app and I love it, I gave it 5 stars. I’m pointing out some of the difficulties below, since it’s a $5 app I thought I’d get a little nitpicky before you buy it.

The menu is a slightly different interface than many other iPad apps, but you’ll get used to it. Selecting and sorting is different in a way that KIND of makes sense, but the standard delete (swipe to left) isn’t supported. If you swipe wrong it actually tells you not to swipe that way instead of just doing the swipe which is kind of strange (it seems like they only support one kind of swipe so why they are particular, I’m not sure).

You have to drag your comics over via iTunes. You can sort of get to your DropBox/Box files, but it’s inconvenient, from that app and download and select “open in…” but it’s awkward and slow, especially if you want to do more than one.
