Comixology - Comics & Manga App Reviews

Updated Version: Latest update has completely screwed everything up. Comics Ive read are marked as in progress. Under "My Books" I cant scroll down the list without the app reshuffling all the books. Show books out of order and showing doubles. --------------------------------------------------------- Bought an iPad for two things only. iTunes and to read Comics. I can still do those things but not being able to purchase comics is so ridiculous.

This app can be saved. I want to be able to buy comics in this app again, not just look at them.

Latest update with "Smart-lists" isnt so smart. Purchases dont show up and it is far from user friendly. You have to fight with it to get the lists to make sense. Not sure why anyone there figures they done a good job of this because they havent. Just when I thought they couldnt mess it up more they have shown a new level of ineptitude.

If you dont understand why in-app purchasing was removed, a quick search on Google will tell you exactly why.

What a confusing new update. I dont care about the in app purchasing. It was nice to have but it is not what brought my usual four stars to two. I like the idea of marked read and not read, but when it shows that I have two or three copies of the same comic, some marked as read and some marked as unread this can be confusing. Shouldnt the only items I should see in my in progress list should be the comics I am in the began reading but didnt finish. Good ideas but the app still needs work. I hope the improvements will come soon.

Thanks it is the best

Why do I have to log in every time I open app? Cant use or read books offline now?!

Not good it whould not even let me sign in

I love this app, but having to log in each time is really irritating and totally unnecessary. Why make it harder to get to my comics on my own device? Please fix.

Dont know why the changed the sign in process, but downloads dont work now either. Have spent quite a bit on a large comic library and upset I cant access it on my phone now. Dont download this version or spend money on this service unless it gets fixed.

Full screen viewing on the iPhone is awesome. Still long for the days when in-app purchases were around, but understandable! Thanks for the quick update, yall. ;)

This is a dumb version of the website without the functionality of the website. You have to go to the website and buy the comic, then come back to the app and read it. I dont see the value or use in the app as it doesnt even provide a meaningful way to browse current comics. You should only have to go to one place to do this. This app needs to be fixed so I dont flip back and forth.

I really dont understand why they would take out the option to buy comics on the app but it very annoying and frustrating

super complicated to actually buy a book. way easier to download for free for some people

I would rather pay a 30% premium and be able to purchase comics in-app than have to go online to do it and then “sync” with the app. To reiterate: this is a COMICS VIEWER only; to buy the comics, you have to go to a website, like its 2006. The ability to purchase comics "in-app" used to be there, but was removed, and the app feels broken as a result. Instead of browsing comics and buying with a simple tap, like before, you have to leave the app, open a browser, go to their website, sign in, put comics in a cart, pay for them with a credit card, then go back into the app, sync your purchases, download the comics you want, and then read them. Terrible. Keep looking; there are better comic reader apps on the App Store.

Best books ever thank u for putting the walking dead books on here u are the best app ever

I dont really want to give them my email and stuff!

Remains ruined until the in-app purchases option is restored!!!!!!!!!!!! Great app before Amazon bought the company and ruined it. Now on the Comixology app you sign in with your Amazon account and you are billed with the info there EXCEPT you cannot use Amazon gift cards. What a mess!!

I used to be a huge fan of Comixology, in fact I turned a lot of friends on to the app as well. But the latest changes make it impossible to buy comix from the app. Now you need to kick out to a browser and buy them from a clunky web site. Whats worse, theres no link to it from the app. Good job Amazon, you bought a good thing and buried it under a steaming pile of your beauracracy.

I used to love reading buying comics from this app now its all awful and inconvenient
