Challenger Comics Viewer users say on Google Play
Honestly, didn't think a free app with no ads let alone annoying ones could exist. Plus it's amazing for cbr and epub files
Reader has been great, been using it for awhile. However, even though it says it can read cbr files, when viewing the files in the library they don't show the cover, and upon opening the file, nothing but a black screen.
This app is great.I can read whatever I want with it.The Only issue I have is that some epub files in library doesn't display covers.Please fix it....Thanks. Edit..! Still no fixing.So I had to re-rate it to 3 stars.
Back button exit option screen, very annoying when trying to setup. Tapping when reading instead of showing navbar it slides changing pages. No option to zoom to actual resolution. I have to manually go back and forth to option to change reading mode if I want to read manga, comic, and vertical webtoon. Overall awkward and a bit unintuitive navigation. But it still a lot better than other readers including perfect viewer.
poor quality of image..
