Despues de un tiempo decidí volver a usarla y definitivamente es la mejor aplicación para leer comics y manga, no solo abre una gran variedad de formatos , la interfaz y como organiza los tomos y bibliotecas es maravillosa y lo mejor de todo, es gratis y sin publicidad.

Used to really like this app but it can't read some cbr files. It just shows blanks. The file is fine because I can open it on CDisplayEX with no issues but can't on Challenger.

Tras la ultima actualizazion (la cual se instaló sola, ya que tengo desactivadas las actualizaciones automáticas) la app no funciona en mi dispositivo antiguo el cual uso para leer. Se abre, se queda en blanco y no responde, totalmente inservible.

JPEG XL and AVIF file support missing, would be appreciated if added. Otherwise, great app for local reading.

Extrêmement déçu ! Une application que j'utilisais quotidiennement depuis 10 ans jusqu'à cette dernière mise à jour (icône bleue)... Résultat : l'appli ne se lance plus... plus d'accès aux fichiers. Mais pourquoi, diable, modifier des choses qui fonctionnent ?! Du grand n'importe quoi ! Je désinstalle et me tourne vers la concurrence ! J'aurais aimé mettre 0 étoile, mais c'est impossible. Pourtant même cette étoile n'est pas méritée.

La aplicación está chula, pero tiene un problema para mí muy grave, hay algunos archivos CBR que no es capaz de leer, aparen en negro al darles, cuando usando otras apps los leen perfectamente, es algo que me molesta porque ya me había acostumbrado a usar esta, su interfaz, el historial y demás, pero es que literalmente más del 60% de los archivos que tengo de comics, que habré metido en las dos últimas semanas, no es capaz de mostrarlos. Ojalá lo arreglen. Entonces cambiaré la nota
