Thanks !
It's altogether a good app, very clean and the page fills up the whole screen nicely, very easy to use. I'm knocking off two stars, because it does not read .rar/.cbr files, though it says in the description that the app does read .rar. All my files with that extension just won't read, and it's extremely bothersome that I always have to check and convert.
"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.
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.
