This App is a Mess. PLEASE FIX IT (Still a mess). This App Just doesn’t Work at all. i keep Getting an error and every time i finish one chapter i can’t read the next. all the time it says. Could not Connect to the server, Please Check Your Network Connection and i have network connection. Other apps like Shonen Jump(Viz), WEBTOON and ComicXology work great but this just doesn’t and is a shame because there are so many good series so please FIX IT. Update i had an IPhone 8 recently change to an iPhone 11 and my lord is even worse is not supported for new phones and the is just bad it doesn’t work smoothly looks lazy and is very infuriating CRUNCHYROLL DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS APP FFS there so much good manga and especially legal manga but man is hard to support y’all if u don't listen and actually care about the app.

Would be great if it didn’t crash. Fairly large catalogue with a bunch of different genres to choose from, but riddled with bug problems. It flat out refuses to keep an account logged in regardless of your status(i.e premium or standard) and crashes every other time you open the app. If you fully close out of the app, you have to re-enter your information. Every. Single. Time. I can confirm all other reviews about the lack of a fitted look on your phone screen with newer phones or softwares, however that’s strictly when searching/browsing in the app. Reading any actual manga is ok, HOWEVER, it has to be an unbroken stream of reading. The second you lock the screen, change to another app, or I’ve even noticed when listening to music there are moments of glitchy behavior that eventually lead to a crash a reset of the app/sign in. I understand that the developers are ridiculous busy with the upkeep of both the Funimation and Crunchyroll streaming services and other app underneath their umbrella, but if there’s sometime to come back and give this gem some TLC, it’d really be one of the best apps for reading manga on here when there are so few quality options.

Outdated. Since I was already a Crunchyroll subscriber was starting to see hope when I seen this app. Already have so many subscriptions as is that’s why I was hoping this had One Piece, My Hero, Boruto, Dragon Ball Super, Kaguya Love is War & Girlfriend Girlfriend manga, lol no it had none of them. It had Attack On Titan Manga but only Chapters 1 to 13 is available might as well watch the anime also Eden Zero there surprisingly it had all the chapters and Fairy Tail was there to but only a couple of chapters. This was a big epic Failed this app was my last hope since I already have a Crunchyroll Subscription now idk where else to look & I’m not gonna get another subscription for Viz or Shonen Jump manga already at my limit of subscriptions I can afford. Also forgot to mention this app look like it hasn’t been updated for a long time Crunchy roll refuses to touch this app anymore. It had potential if Crunchy Roll put in the time on this App but it seems like they don’t bother with it anymore.

One step forward, two steps back. So on the one hand, after many years they finally fixed the problem where the app would completely break and have to be reinstalled. On the other hand, it signs you out every time you use it and stores no memory of your account. So every single time you want to use it, you have to go through the full name and password. At the same time, Crunchyroll recently started aggressively acquiring the licenses to tons of manga. Sounds great, right? Well they’ve actually just been sitting on the licenses with no intention of using them. They released like 3 chapters of a bunch of long-running manga several months ago, and nothing since. The plan seems to be to prevent others from acquiring the licenses first, without having the personnel to actually make use of them. An extremely scummy and anti-consumer move.

Great... when it actually works [UPDATED]. I really like the app, but it's buggy as heck. It won't open a lot of the time, saying that it couldn't connect to the network when I'm hooked to very good wifi. There's also the issue of it crashing and not loading the next chapter. This issue mostly happens when loading the next chapter. I really wish this app worked better, since I like the selection that's available. They have quite a few bugs to fix for this to get better. Update: they took down most of the chapters of the mangas, leaving only the most recent ones. They used to keep every chapter, but now they don’t. Extremely disappointed to see how far this app has fallen.

The biggest pain in my neck. I have loved using the CR Manga app for a few years now with a lot—and I mean a LOT—of patience. I understand the app has a ways to go in improvements but honestly issues just kept getting worse and worse over time rather than improving. The amount of times the app would stay stuck on “Authenticating” forcing me to delete and reinstall is ridiculous. I’ve been forced kicked out of my account while I was reading manga because it suddenly didn’t recognize my account. Now it gets stuck saying there is no server activity. I should not have to be uninstalling and reinstalling this app this many times just to get caught up with my fave manga so far. Oof and don’t even get me started on the meager collection of manga available. It has some popular manga but come on, where are the bigger major titles of the season? Maybe we’ll get a bone thrown at us here and there but this is just making me want to just give up on this app altogether. I hope there can be some better improvements for the iOS version but so far, two stars is all it’ll get from me. :/

Absolutely abysmal. This app is by far the worst manga reader I’ve used, it’s been in service for a while now and after crunchyroll’s slow roll in taking over or shuttering other anime services all we’re left with is an app that even after close to ten years it still has the same issues and bugs that it has today. No matter how many times I am on a stable wifi connection or just on data it’ll log me out after each chapter. So I’ll have to be forced to kill the app, restart it and expected to log back into the app if I want to continue. For. Each. Chapter. I. Read. I seriously don’t understand how this can continue to be an issue when it’s very clearly how this app was built and what CR’s servers feed to the app I was forced to move to this platform due to their merger but honestly if this is how bad they’re going to treat any customers especially paying ones; I’d be better off spending a year off and just digging around the internet for the whole physical set than I am paying for a service that won’t spend the money to by their workers to make the serve better

Missing basic features. I was having a nice day reading some Edens Zero when I came to a splash page (a page with panels that go across both pages spread out in front of you when you have the comic/manga in front of you). The reader being used in portrait mode, naturally, only showed one half of the page so I turned my phone to the side to view the whole splash page at once just like I would on any other comic reader. Instead of showing both sides of the splash page like any decent reading app would it showed the top part of one half of it. This is an extremely basic feature for any manga or comic reading app and it’s truly pathetic that one by as prestigious a service as Crunchyroll is missing it.

Connection issues. This is a great way to legally read many series, WHEN THE APP WORKS. This app seems to have major connection issues, where it will work fine for a few chapters, then suddenly it can’t connect to the server. I’ll usually try to reconnect for a minute or two before I move on to something else, regardless of how absorbed I was by whatever series I was reading. If they could fix that, then it would be an amazing, nearly flawless app (my only other complaint being the lack of some major series that I can’t be too hard about because I’m sure they tried to get the license for them), but as it stands, I feel I have to give it a somewhat low rating.

Solid foundation, but with too small a library.. As a supplementary service offered au gratis with your Crunchyroll subscription, their manga service is pretty great. You get a no-nonsense UI with basic bookmarking and favoriting to keep up with your favorite series, and an interface that works well. As a proprietary service, it feels anemic. While there are notable works made available, like A-Jin, Seven Deadly Sins, and Arakawa Under The Bridge, the library is overall pretty small — especially when compared to the substantial collection on Crunchyroll’s primary anime and j-drama service. It also doesn’t have a particularly good storefront as a result. Since the library is so small, there’s no need for discoverability or genre classification — which, in and of itself, is a problem worth addressing should they ever expand its collection. However, new series don’t pop up on here often enough to inspire confidence. It’s great as a free offering to Crunchyroll, which is already a pretty hefty service, and you won’t run into low-quality art or amateurish translations like in free services, but it’s still got a ways to go in a market desperately in need of strong competition, and it starts with the library.

Crashing Bug Kills Otherwise Fantastic App. Glad to see I’m not the only one with the issue. When the app works, it’s fantastic. It’s not the best, but it works well enough that it’s comfortable to find and read what it has available, especially with how you can bookmark specific pages of a chapter and such. The primary reason for my 2-Star rating though is that the app has a very bad bug that makes it completely useless unless you uninstall and reinstall it, and it happens at least once a week for me. It gets stuck authenticating when launching and then it’ll stay that was indefinitely until it is then deleted and reinstalled and then you have to go through the hassle of logging back in again and rinse and repeat. This app would easily be a 4-Star rating from me if not for that one major issue.

QoL issues. Huge crunchyroll fan, but this app has a couple quality issues that made me voice my complaint. First, a connection error makes it impossible to use, and the only solution that works for me is reinstalling it. Not a huge issue if it were once in a while cause it literally takes one second to reinstall, but just now after reinstalling it to read the latest chapter to grand blue dreaming, it caused an error. That’s less than 5 minutes, how does that happen? Next issue is the inability to read the earlier chapters to certain books. Probably a license issue, but I can’t stress how annoying it is to find a series I want to read only to be able to read chapter 1, and then 50-recent chapters. I’d rather they only offered 1-40, and advertised later ones than unable to get into the story.

Would be 5 stars, if they would fix it!. Been using this app for a long while, loved it, so easy to use, I could make a queue, it would save my spot and when I moved to a new chapter it wouldn’t leave big screen. Then sudden the app stopped working, i let it go thinking it was glitching that day, came back a week later and still doing it, couple months later I finally emailed Crunchyroll about it and they said it was a known issue and they were working on a fix... that was almost a year ago now and still no fix. I am frustrated and annoyed that they don’t seem to be putting any effort into fixing their manga app, which was such a great app before this happened. Come on Crunchyroll, get your act together!

Selection Is Okay But Bugs Make Reading Difficult. The selection seems okay but not great. It’s hard to tell what choices you actually have because they don’t have many of the ones you might know so you’re left with discovery. Discovery isn’t so easy on this app because all you get to see is the title without even a line or two about it until you tap on the title. On top of that it constantly logs you out and since you don’t know when you’re logged out (whether it’s while reading or when you switch to do something else) the bookmark of the last page you were on doesn’t match. For a glorified PDF Reader, the content is not bad. The app itself needs a lot of work though.

Good reading app, but has connection issues. Recently got back into reading manga and since I have a crunchyroll premium subscription, I decided to use this app awhile since crunchyroll had some volumes that were missing from a free site I had started reading Grand Blue Dreaming on. Sadly this app seems to have a re-occuring connection problem. I think it may be that if I don’t close the app properly and go a few hours without using it, the app will not connect to the server. Either that or it has an authentication issue... either way, every time I have this issue, I have to uninstall the app and re-install it just to be able to log in again and use it. You’d think a premium anime streaming site would have better support for the manga app, considering anime is what usually gets a lot of people into manga.

I love this app but..... Tbh I really love this app it’s the only one that has the official translation for the manga I love to read but I’m really having problems with it right now for starters the fact that it just closes off the app and doesn’t let me read anything really gets me mad and having to delete and reinstall the app is annoying I hope the developers read this and work on the manga app more then the streaming app I mean I’m paying for both and only getting half of what I’m paying not cool and the fact that I can’t read anything past certain chapters like the ones before the newest ones please make this a better app then it already is because I’m not happy right now VIZ midia app doesn’t have any of these issues so how come u guys do 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Disappointing, makes me thing about unsubbing.. I have several series I’ve been following using the manga app, as I found the experience of reading manga much better on the go rather than chained to my PC at home. The app is constantly getting in the way of that however, as it is frequently losing connection, failing to load new chapters, or getting stuck in an “Authenticating” hang that is so bad hat I have to delete and reinstall the app to make it work, more recently this has been happening so much that I can’t even get it to work once after a reinstall. Sad to only give it one star but the app is literally unusable the majority of the time. This was the last feature that is keeping me on a premium subscription instead of just using my partners VRV account for anime, and subbing to funimation instead to bring us more variety. Be nice to see bug fixes more than once a year or so...

Good reader, Terrible connection issues. This app has a nice selection of reads, relatively good formatting too. I've found a couple of gems on here. It's huge downside however is the amount of times I get an incessant message about it not being able to connect to the server and to check my internet connection. it's very much NOT my connection as adjusting that, be it to a different wifi network or LTE data as that makes no difference. This has been an issue since even my last iPhone, which was years ago and no other app in my experience has this problem. The only solution is deleting and reinstalling the app, and that's only good until the message comes back a few weeks later. All in all, I want to like it but this is near irredeemable an issue. Would be one star if not for the fact that it's a good inclusion with my crunchyroll subscription.

Major flaws that need to be addressed. So I like that I have manga included in my Crunchyroll subscription, and when I saw that they had a mobile app I was excited to download it. However, I’ve had many major issues with the app since I downloaded it, and it’s become incredibly frustrating. Sometimes the app gets stuck in the “authentication” step and I can’t get it to open no matter if I restart the app completely. The manga selection is fairly limited and they don’t have entire collections available; so if you are behind, you cannot catch up (legally). Overall, I love the idea of having manga available with Crunchyroll, but there are issues that need addressed. Thank you

Outdated, lacking basic features. I love Crunchyroll, but I really wish they would put more energy into this app. They seem to be neglecting their manga-reading members. This app is clunky and lacks basic features. The notification setting in the app doesn’t work; you’ll never ever see a notification for new chapters of your favourite manga. You may not even be able to use the app at all without uninstalling and reinstalling many times. The app very frequently gets stuck on “Authenticating” when trying to load the app, and the only solutions I’ve had work are to reinstall the app (and then log back on after launching the reinstalled app), or simply stop using it and try again hours, days, or weeks later to see if anything has changed. Crunchyroll, please give this app the attention it needs. Please. I don’t really like using third-party apps that deliver fan translated manga. UPDATE DECEMBER 15, 2018 App is still garbage. Hasn’t received an update. Haven’t been able to use the app since around March because of “authenticating” problem. I use MangaRock app now. Get it, it’s free. Stop supporting Crunchyroll’s broken garbage.

Needs work.. It’s a decent app for reading but doesn’t have some of the more popular series and has to delete certain series chapters because of licensing restrictions which can be very annoying, when you want to start a series and it starts at chapter 200. Also has an issue with starting up the app it says authenticating but stays stuck in that loop and doesn’t load anything. Also has been giving trouble when trying to log into my account. I know the email and password are correct because I’ve signed into my account with safari but it keeps saying my login is incorrect. Definitely has some major issues, there are better apps for reading manga out there.

I’m tired. I only got the app because Crunchyroll is translating a certain manga I like but I did have expectations for it. Overall, the design of the app is stiff and the way you’re forced to read manga is as well. Reading Manga: I wish their were different option to adjust the way the manga is read (I.e. scroll down, swipe right, swipe left, 2 pages per slide, etc.). Not only the reading is uncomfortable, but switch chapters is hard too. Rather than having the next chapter loaded or even just a button to go to the next chapter, The app forces you to exit out the manga chapter and struggle to get the next one opened ( in some cases you have to close the app and come back) Finding manga: It not organized by category and you may know the manga by a different name so you’re forced to scroll though everything to find what you want or like. With the limited manga they have, it would be nice to have a release schedule for updated chapters so readers know when to expect more. It seems like they license manga, translate a some chapters, then drop it and come back to the manga who knows when... Judging by the other reviews, I think I’m going to cancel my subscription because clearly Crunchyroll isn’t improving much.

Out of date. The app is great and you can read some good stuff but I have just one complaint that has taken it down to a three star the way it looks is as if it has not been updated within the last decade there is weird black borders and the keypad when it pops up looks like the one from the iPhone 6 some may like this older style of look but I do not please update it so it can at least fill the screen instead of having weird black borders thank you

When was this app last updated?. The app is extremely outdated. As soon as you open the app, you are hit with the small app size. It does not take full use of more modern smartphone sizes and seems like it would still look off on an iPhone 5. Something to add to this is when you tap on the description of any manga, the resolution zooms out so the text goes from huge to very small. Also, the service itself needs some improvements. Why do some manga like Fairy Tail, which is promoted in the app description, have chapters 1-22.5, and skip all the way up to 165? To top that off, it’s not like a premium exclusive. All of those chapters are premium exclusive. The missing chapters must be super premium or something. Fairy Tail isn’t the only series that skips chapters. Some series even have a few chapters spread throughout (meaning, not only the latest chapters) being premium only, which is weird.

For AoT fans. (No spoilers). I got this app for AoT and to my surprise, the manga does start at Chapter 1 but skips Chapters 2-114 and begins again at Chapter 115-end. Needless to say, I immediately deleted the app. Apart from the 100 missing chapters, I was legitimately surprised and a bit taken back when I saw how outdated and horrendous the user interface was. Compared to the regular Crunchyroll app that everyone has come to love, this sorry excuse of an iPhone app was nothing less of an abomination. The app was updated last in 2020 (as of the time of this review) but it looks like this app’s existence hasn’t been acknowledged since 2010. This app straight up looks like something you would have on your iPhone 5, maybe even on your flip phone. From the terrible resolution to the ancient iPhone keyboard layout the app makes you use to type in the name of your anime, this app was nothing less of an atrocity. Only gave it a one star because you can’t give apps a zero star. What a shame.

Love the app, but recently broken. I love reading some of what Crunchyroll thinks are the best manga’s from Japan in this app. I am excited to wait every month for a new volume of a manga to come out. But recently, since Jan 2019, the Manga app has stopped working for me in general. I looked through forums and noticed the people had this problem way before I did. Some said to uninstall then reinstall the app to fix it. This did not help me, but instead made it to where it is stuck on the “Authenticating” screen. I’ve missed some volumes, and tomorrow is going to be March 1st, 3 months of no access to the app. Please crunchyroll, push an update that will fix the app. Edit: Apps dead, hasnt updated in a year. All hope is lost for this app.

Needs work.. This app is broken. As a Crunchyroll subscriber for years, I really like that they offer manga. But this app crashes all the time. Sometimes chapters randomly won’t open- multiple times among multiple manga. I uninstall and reinstall this app AT LEAST once every other month. This app rarely receives updates. And the fact that they drop significant amounts of long running manga (like chapters 2-50 or more at times,) it’s almost not worth trying to get into something like Attack on Titan or Fairytale. That’s probably a licensing issue, but it affects readership, which affects app usage. I am grateful this app exists and I can read manga legally. But they need to fix this app, and hopefully secure licensing agreements with more manga publishers (like Kodansha.)

Great and amazing content but not the best app. What can I say about crunchy roll manga besides it has amazing content, while the library is not as huge as say Shonen jump the library of manga the app does have is fantastic from attack on titan to the very popular To your eternity the app has a lot of popular titles and fan favorites, but the app is honestly not the best, the layout is not very good and the app looks like it hasn’t been updated in a while and is in need of an update. If your on a more recent device the app doesn’t take up the whole screen and the app does crash a lot and I have experienced a problem where the app doesn’t connect to the internet. You can’t download manga so if your on a plane or anywhere with bad service your basically screwed if your on a very good part of your favorite manga. Overall, Crunchyroll is in need of a update, the app isn’t very good but if you have Crunchyroll premium service it’s worth a try, it has a great library of content to choose from my favorite is attack on titan which is for sure worth checking out.

Breaks too often. I genuinely hate this app cause it locks up or errors out so often and throws out an error that implies it’s on the user but in reality it’s the app getting stuck. It will often get into a connection error loop and the only way on iOS to get out is to delete and reload the app again. There are little ways to avoid this sometimes but it doesn’t always work either. And the solution of having to log out every time is just something unheard of these days in app development. I would use the website but the reader in their is so outdated that it’s quicker to endure the ridiculous steps of having to delete the app, find it the App Store cause iOS app history decided to be stupid, redownload and sign back in again. Seriously I love Crunchyroll content but man, you guys gotta fix your site and apps. It great no one really cares about it besides the content but it’s sad that the owners feel the same way. Such pride in their product...

Just asking. When I first got the app I was very happy. My plan was to read the manga before the anime could release it but there are some problems. 1 the app will work for a couple of days then it’s impossible to open again unless you delete and reinstall it. 2 some of the manga is incomplete and just ends before the actual ending making intense manga reading impossible. 3 the app needs a rework it should have the same colors as the anime one and not look like a forgotten app. 3.5 the app just needs to be reworked. 4 please if possible make it so it favorites manga of the liked anime on the other app. Overall the app is OK but just needs some work.

An amazing app when it works. I’m sad to say this but I’m never able to use this app I’m trying hardest to get the attention of the people who can fix this app for I love Crunchyroll I’m a super fan premium member and I love being one all the other apps work tremendously well and I would recommend this subscription or any they offer to everyone wether you’re just getting into anime which is why it pains me to say this but the app never works I’m never able to login or get past the infinite Authentication screen which is a shame since there is so many well worth manga and exclusive manga on here to enjoy if someone out there sees this please try and fix this app it has so much potential

Horrible Manga App…. So, I was prompted to rate this app when I opened it up today, and I was very eager to share my opinions on it. However, even as I attempted to write my review, the apps constant bugging and server issues prevented me from doing so. This happens most of the time I open this app; it has some sort of connectivity issue and won’t open. Even if it did open, there are still many issues that could be fixed. I hate having to scroll all the way down from the most recent chapter to get to the ones I’m actually reading. The app does a poor job of tracking my place in the manga I am reading, and often loses track of it. You have to start from the beginning of a chapter each time you begin reading. And half the time I try to open up the next chapter, I run into that same server issue I mentioned earlier. Please fix this app Crunchyroll! So many great series are trapped here, never to be read by those seeking to avoid the frustrations of this hellish manga reader.

Love Crunchyroll, hate their manga App. For those that don’t read this whole review: Translations are top notch but the app is crap. Crunchyroll does spectacular anime and manga translation. It’s why I’m willing to cough up money for what I could get free with patience (anime) and good timing (manga). If I’m spending money, though, I’d love it if I could actually access the manga app on a regular basis with out it sitting at the “authenticating” screen, no matter what I do. On top of that, The category sorting is atrocious. I have no trouble sorting and searching their anime, so why the difficulty with the manga? If you can program one app well, it makes little sense as to why the other is so clunky and problematic. The last complaint is the least, namely that their manga catalogue is pitiful compared to their anime selection and often series are missing huge swathes. I respect that they might simply have not had the rights to series or portions there of, but it’s still a little frustrating by comparison to their anime. C’mon Crunchyroll. Let’s polish this app a bit.

The premium is aggravating. I downloaded this app excited that I would be able to Red manga for free thinking that it wildlife have many good mangas for me to choose from. The truth is it didn’t have any of the ones I tried searching and after I read chapter one of a really good manga starting called “One Room Of Happiness” I went to go read chapter 2 and realized I need premium. I went to go look at the other mangas I had saved to my favorites and realized all were like this. I understand that apps have there reasoning and want them to be good but premium every chapter after 1? I cannot get premium so just to let y’all know, if ur getting this you might wanna get premium if u want to keep reading.

Still Broken. If you’ve been reading the reviews then you already know the issue. This authenticating/Infinite loading glitch has been happening well over a year now. I have also emailed them constantly, they continue to say they are aware of the issue and working on a fix and blah blah thanks for being a premium member. It’s pretty obvious they do not care. I’m currently on my second phone, my iPhone X and this problem started on my old 6S and it persisted into my new. It also doesn’t help that their regular anime watching app is also broken beyond belief on my X. They refuse to actually pay and get proper programmers to fix the problem with these consistent loading issues that is plaguing their apps. I’ve had it with crunchyroll I’m switching over to VRV as well subscribing to Comixology because as far as I’m concerned they have a wide selection of not only Japanese manga but regular American comics. Could probably cost a little more than crunchyroll subscription but at least I am getting quality for the money I am paying for and not some dumb PR email that’s copy and pasted every time crunchyroll gets a support problem.

Always stuck on Authenticator screen!. Apps broke been broke, after about 3 months of the app stuck on the same screen I emailed support. They email me back thank me for being a premium crunchyroll member tell me it’s a known issue and it’s being worked on. I close the app and move on with my life. Fast forward to today. I wanted to read some manga open the app same fudging problem! This has been broke for long long long fudging time and crunchyroll support knows it’s an issue and it’s been broke for well over a year. AND ITS STILL NOT FIXED!!! This kinda sums up every experience I’ve ever had with crunchyroll support, they don’t fix anything just hope the problem goes away on its own and I’m starting to wonder why I keep giving them my money!?!??!!?! I may end up canceling my membership!

I do like this app, but?. I am really fond of this app and I have had it for a while now. Is easy to use and is updated frequently. But lately I have had this recurring Issue of it authenticating my account. But it will sit there and do this for ever if I let it. I’ll have signal or even with WiFi It still does it. But it will let me on one day then it won’t the next few. The next issue is I’d have down time and this is what I’d like do. It was great, and I read a lot of titles that interested me. But I don’t feel like it has enough honestly and some titles that were complete they aren't anymore and there’s been a few new titles here and there but as much as you would think with an app with premium member ship. But I still like this app, and if I’d give it 5 stars if not for these to issues.

Too Exclusive. Some other reviews mention this but there are not nearly enough free chapters to read. For each series, people who can’t or aren’t willing to buy a premium account can only read the first chapter. I tried reading many different series to make sure this wasn’t a one-time thing but every. single. one had it so I couldn’t actually read it. Another issue is that they have an outdated system, making it hard to actually relax while reading the very slim selection. Example: The page won’t slide up if there’s any option to type. The screen is fitted for specific devices or something because it’s only using part of the space available. What I mean is that it’ll leave a large top space black while only allowing me to view the comic via the lower part of my screen. Last problem: the selection is way to slim. If limiting *every* story to one free chapter wasn’t enough to make me unhappy, they don’t even have popular manga. The most well known one I found was a follow up to FairyTail and I can’t even remember it’s name. Overall, I expected more from the creators of one of my favourite apps. Truly a let down, to be honest.

WAY to restricted. This app is a good concept, but has some major flaws. First of all, the free content. There simply isn't enough to be worth your time at only one chapter per series being free. Second of all the selection. There is a noticeable lack of popular and classic manga series that are much more accessible and free on other sources outside of this app. Lastly, the required membership. If you plan on getting more than one chapter available(sometimes none) be prepared to sign up for a membership to get any sort of fulfilling experience out of this app. As for suggestions, employ a similar formula here that you did for crunchy roll. Make the app free to use at the expense of some adds and pop ups. Have the paid membership get rid of adds and many through in early access or even original Japanese versions of manga. It would also be helpful, in my opinion, to include some older manga such as the dragon ball series to pull in more people out of nostalgia. Hope my thoughts were helpful, thanks.

You were the chosen one!. I had such hopes for this app. But unfortunately, it has left me disappointed. You cannot login half the time. Their are broken images left and right in the mangas with no way of reporting these errors. Even those manga that do not have broken images do not fully load 10-20% of the time and often require a complete restart of the app to fix as it lacks a simple reload image option. The favorite system will save your titles but lacks a resume function so you need to hunt for the page if you close the app for to long. And it lacks anything as basic as a download to read offline mode so hope you have data or constant wifi access. It has become blatantly obvious that this is a minimum viable product that Crunchyroll has no interest in fixing or improving. They have your money and don’t care anymore. You were the chosen one Crunchyroll. But rather than destroy the industry, you joined them. Bring a valid and accessible legal option to the anime and manga industry, but instead you have left it just the same. I had such hope for you, but you broke my heart.

Read 6 chptrs, Error, Delete App, Reinstall, Repeat. This app used to be better and I could read for long periods of time with no issues. But now literally all it does is let me ready six chapters. Then I get a 404 error and it won’t load the next chapter or even the ones I already read. Then I’ll close and reopen and all of a sudden it gives me an error saying it can’t connect to the internet/find the server and just won’t load anything at all. After that I have to delete and reinstall. Just so I can read 6 more chapters and start the process again. I get most of their profit is in the anime but this is still also a service they offer with the subscription and they should at least put some care into having a working app. As someone who has found and read a lot of fun titles on this app it’s super frustrating this is happening now. Please fix it.

Old, broken, and a small library. Tl;dr: don't even bother downloading it. First thing I noticed: the UI hasn't been updated to dynamically adjust the resolution, which means they haven't made a significant update since releasing the app. Next, I noticed that the library is super tiny. It takes like 90 seconds to scroll from top to bottom while reading each title. There are a few titles I'm interested in, so I tried to open one up and noticed a little crown next to all but chapter 1 that indicates you have to have a membership to read those, I assume, which is no problem, since I have their mid-tier subscription and am logged in. I click on one to confirm that I'm right, and I get an error and a blank screen. On every chapter except the free one. On every manga.

Such a meh app. I used this app years ago and stopped because of it’s Bad overall interface and decided to come back to it since I had gotten a guest pass but it’s still so Meh the manga selection is Meh and though some manga will show as having 80+ chapters really all there is, is chapter 1-5 followed by chapter 75. Also the fact that the Manga viewer doesn’t feel the complete screen but leaves the top 1/4 empty along with a large blue button on the screen for a guide that is something you see more in American comics than manga. Yeah it’s not the true focus of crunchy roll but It’s such a disappointment with other alternatives like Shonen jump being available for $1 a month and though they may have limits to your daily reading allotment at least they have all the chapters for their manga and a good interface that fills the screen.

Uninstalling and reinstalling every few uses.. I use the app to read a manga, close it, open it a few days later to read something else, now it’s stuck authenticating, restart app, nothing, restart phone, nothing, uninstall and reinstall, logs in fine, rinse and repeat for 3 months... okay maybe it hasn’t been updated in a while....... two years pass. Same issue...... fast forward to today. I left it logged off to keep from having to uninstall again and GUESS WHAT IT GETS STUCK AUTHENTICATING AFTER I LOGGED IN!!! This is RIDICULOUS how long has it been since an update??? I have been through three different phones and this app seems to have never been updated even for the X which means it’s at least a YEAR AND A HALF out of date. Will this ever update and allow me to read the manga I pay a subscription for on ANY device other than my computer? Or is there any plan to change the reader from REQUIRING adobe flash which is NOT ON iDEVICES?

Good addition, Kindle support?. The Crunchyroll Manga app is a nice addition to your subscription if your already paying for it, but I probably would specifically pay for Crunchyroll just for the manga app. There is a decent variety in genres, but as of now there isn’t a lot to choose from. (They are adding chapters and new manga often though.) Something that would go a long way. Is the ability to send books to my kindle to read. Similar to how some Public Library apps allow you to send some eBooks to your kindle. Because reading for long periods of time on a backlit screen can be vary strenuous.

Nice to read but forgets login constantly. I like the app in general, good gui and works great until it forgets you’ve logged in. This happens about EVERY. SINGLE. CHAPTER. …. It is so freaking annoying to have to re-sign in just to keep going. I’ve tried everything including signing in and closing the app, restarting etc to try to get it to remember me. It’s all no good because it forgets who I am and make me 100% sign back in again before long. It’s so frustrating I’ve almost uninstalled it. The app presents others stories which are of course great, if the designers of the app made the stories though I fear they would forget the main characters part way through and worse. Come on, sign ins should be easy, I don’t pay monthly for this level of accessibility, let me stay signed in.

Authentication. Can you fix this please? When I first got the app it's was awesome! I've never read a seen an app where it could read comics that by individual blocks. I loved that it makes you tunnel vision on the story. Make it more far more interesting, IMO. Don't remember when or what update caused this authentication problem, but it was a few years ago. I get the authentication screen and never goes to the home screen of the app. I have to delete the app, reinstall it, then it works for some time, but then it does it all over again. Really annoying!!! Please fix!!! The new problem this app is having, is not being able to turn the phone sideways (landscape) and having the screen follow it. It used to do I don't understand why mess with the app when it was awesome! Please fix this! Not being able to do that makes reading plain, boring and always having to zoom in and out! Please fix asap! 3 years and still no news about a fix! Stopped using it and went over to Tappytoon! Solo leveling is a great read FYI! The people giving this app a 5 star review must be joking, IMO!

I love this but..... This is a great app!!! Although we don’t always get the newest of manga. I hope the devs or people in charge can read this, but can y’all work on the authentication loop that happens to plague this app?!! I’m not the only one I’ve seen this on other comments, I just hope you release an update an app to solve this problem. I also hope you would focus on this app more, than just the video streaming one, because this app has great potential, imagine having a manga app they released the Managua translated the day of the Japanese version!!! This app would be wayyy more successful, anyways I love both of the apps so props on that! Thank you for your time and I hope you can fix the infinite authentication loop, I’m just trying to read some anime here :). —sincerely Me

Disappointing and frustrating. The regular Crunchyroll app for anime works fairly well. The manga app, however, works NEVER. It fails in a variety of different ways: 1. It will not sign me in, even though it is the exact same login as the anime app; it tells me my credentials are wrong. 2. When I’m able to even begin signing in, the app will freeze while trying to load and there’s no way to do any sort of refresh. 3. It won’t even pretend to humor me about working. It immediately prompts the error message “cannot connect to server”. Lies. What infuriates me the most about this is that Crunchyroll is NOT a free service. I am PAYING for a subscription to access shows and books that I CANNOT access from my phone. Sure, I suppose I could cart around a laptop with me everywhere I go, but that defeats the purpose of having a smartphone, and a computer doesn’t give you LTE options. Conclusion: exponentially subpar.

Great Content, Bad App. I have used Crunchyroll Manga for over three years at this point, and while I love the different series and enjoy reading within the app, the actual app itself has a ton of problems, and feels like it has not changed or improved in three years. The largest issue is the large number of times that bugs in the app have required me to delete and redownload the app to get it to function again. Other little things, such as updating to use the full screen on iPhone X and above, and having a notification or way to see from your list which series have updates without clicking on to each of them individually. Long story short, I use this app to be able to read the manga legitimately and make sure the creators are getting paid to make their content, but it often times feels like I am being punished for doing so, as pretty much every manga pirating app has a better overall experience. I hope Crunchyroll at some point decides to put more resources into this app so it can compete with the free options out there.

Waste of time, not free, doesn’t work.. The “Authenticating” issue at startup has rendered this app useless and it show be withdrawn and honestly, money refunded to those that paid for premium access. The problem is years old and has been totally ignored by the developers. Crunchyroll anime is fantastic but this, unusable rubbish.

Can connect, check your internet. Randomly when launching the app it will come up with something like “can’t connect check your internet”. Reopening the app does nothing and requires me to redownload the app. Where the app continues as normal This is still a problem and now it’s so bad I can only use the app once before getting this problem and having to reinstall the app...

Good app. This app is great when it wants to work. I find myself deleting and re downloading because it bugs out and doesn’t want to connect to my wifi. Other then that love it

My App is stuck Authenticating. EDIT: Its working fine all of a sudden again and loving the app so glad that its working again. (I used to use this app all the time yet for some reason now when I open the app, it just says authenticating, I’ve tried re-downloading but no change. I use iphone 7)

Annoyingly slow app. The quality of the manga is very good, however the app takes forever to load and only allows for one to read the first chapters of certain manga's, unless you buy the premium membership. Overall i don't particularly like the app and resort to reading manga online instead, however when the app does work the manga options and the quality of the manga is in my opinion excellent, which is why I keep the app and give it a 2 star rating.

Issues with connection on the iOS interface. Been crashing a lot without any reason whatsoever. Deleting and installing it back works for a while but that is hardly a solution. Waiting for a new update for a fix of this issue.

Pay to read. All you can do in the app is read the first chapter of everything and then you have to pay for a premium account to read any further if you didn’t have to pay to read more I would have rated 5 stars

Good but freaking slow. Great quality app but takes ages for it to “Authenticate” when opening and a few times opened up reasonably quick.

Broken app. I try to use the app but it gets stuck on on ‘authenticating’. It’s an issue for heaps of people, it’s an issue that’s been around for months and months, and yet the developers aren’t doing anything. Honestly not worth the download.

A pathetic attempt at a manga reader.. There are a bunch of manga readers out there with a 1000% better user experience and features, and they host free fan subs. Crunchyroll Manga feels like a total development afterthought. It’s barebones, the usability is garbage and the readability features are even worse. You would expect that a paid service (the biggest anime streaming platform) would go at least someway to providing a better service to the users who are trying to support artists and pay for something that can very easily get for free. This is pathetic, do better.

Outdated. Look, you can read the manga sure but the app needs an update. It’s compressed and it’s low quality. Looks like an app made for an iPhone 4. Needs an overhaul.

Can’t login. I have a premium account but the app seems to freeze when you try to login. Whenever you open the app after trying to login it is still authenticating:(

Authenticating issues. Would be a nice app if it would work, appears to be endlessly “Authenticating” and never, ever, actually opens. Would be nice if they fixed it, but not holding my breath...

Premium. Overall I like the amount of mange here and it’s not illegal but NOT everyone wants to buy premium also stop making like 25 chapters or more just premium. I want to read manga so why don’t you do it like your anime one. Once the free trial is over I can’t read the manga I like or even look at the good chapters because it’s locked up with premium. JUST DON’T PREMIUM EVERYTHING AND HAVE A TIME LIMIT!!!

Worst manga library. Don’t bother downloading this app!! This library literally has about 100 manga titles available. That’s it. The only manga they have that would even still be updating is attack on titan, everything else is finished, so I have no idea why the description goes on about being able to read new chapters as their published in Japan?? It’s seriously pathetic, I don’t know why Crunchyroll even bothered.

Doesn’t Work. Authenticates forever, and the manga portion of the website doesn’t seem to work on mobile. What am I paying for again? Guess I’ll just read my manga illegally. Let me know when your service that you CHARGE MONEY FOR actually works, guys.

Good manga, but the app never opens.. I use an iPhone 7 and my phone is up to date, and I used to use this app all the time, but a while ago it stopped opening. I’d open the app, it’d say “authenticating” and that would be it! I’ve sat waiting and waiting for it to load but it just doesn’t. I’ve deleted the app and redownloaded, turned my phone off and on again, it just doesn’t work. It’s a really big shame because I’m a premium member on crunchyroll and I want to be able to access manga on my phone and iPad, since those are the two main things I use. If the developer could fix this issue, it’d be so much better for users.

Really unreliable app. Would love to rate this higher but I am constantly an error saying I can’t connect to the server. Only thing that fixes it is a fresh download. A lot of others on the forums seem to have the same issue.

Terrible design and outdated. Needs a lot of work. - dark bezels showing the app is not updated for iPhone X and above - bookmarking doesn't save the page and Esther just leaves a blue tab and the top meaning whenever you close the app you need to scroll through every page to dind the bookmarked page.

One of the most unreliable apps to date. Only allows you to view content 50% of the time. Closing the app, restarting the phone doesn’t resolve it and there’s no other way to view it on an iOS device because the site uses Flash. Get with the times Crunchyroll, we’re paying customers...

It doesn’t load. Every time I log in it says I’m logged out and I need an account it’s so time consuming and using a different website is much easier

Authenticator issues. Please connect to a network to view this message. Seriously though the app has a huge issue with its authenticator. Usually it will let you use it for a little while after downloading it then will randomly have a bad gateway error (400) and require you to restart. When you do this it refuses to authenticate. The only way to resolve this issue is deleting the app and reinstalling.

Authenticating issue. There’s an issue with the app that freezes it on “authenticating” whenever I open it after logging in for the first time. Uninstalling and reinstalling solves the issue, though it is an inconvenience. I see that others have posted reviews about this to and I am disheartened to know that there hasn’t yet been a fix to this bug. I hope that the developer gets onto this quickly. Very disappointing to pay for a service to use it on your phone and have it not work.

Authentication. This authentication screen is very annoying. Fix it

Fundamentally broken. Would be good if it was possible to actually access the app, as it is, and as it has been for months, it gets stuck on ‘authenticating’ and doesn’t allow access.

Disappointing. When I saw that Crunchyroll had manga I was so excited. Very disappointed to find out that a lot of the series aren’t complete (e.g AOT is only chp 1 and chapters 115+). Additionally, the app interface if basic and primitive. There are a lot of bugs, and every time I don’t open the app on a different wifi network it comes up with connection errors and I have to delete and reinstall. Very disappointed.

More mangas. I downloaded this app so I could read my hero academia because my school library has the mangas but not all of them, when I tried searching up my hero academia on there nothing came up. Could you please add it or tell me why I can’t find it and how to? I love the app. Start attack on titan today 😁

Hurry up and fix authenticating issue. I know I’m not the only one having this problem. Every time I launch the app after a bit of a break it is always stuck on ‘authenticating’. I have left it for half an hour and the page never changes. This happens right when you open the app. Fix this. Hate having to reinstall this app every fortnight to a month.

Manga by Crunchyroll. The app doesn’t open on the iPhone which is a very sad thing. It works half of the time on my old iPad but says “Request failed: bad request” when I try to turn it on the next chapter. I hope this can be fixed because the app was amazing.

Doesn’t work anymore. Don’t try to download and use this app (unless there is an update after this comment). It won’t let you sign in (keeps authenticating) and the app is not scaled properly (mine is 6S and the app looks like it’s scaled up from a 5S app)

Useless app that Crunchyroll doesn’t bother fixing. Unfortunately couldn’t give zero stars. Crunchyroll treats their paying customers with contempt with this app. It frequently refuses to log users in and equally frequently can’t find content that’s supposed to be there. Haven’t bothered updating it in nine months. Thought this would be an option in lieu of only a Flash reader being available for manga on their website which every browser out there disables. Have been a paying subscriber for most of Crunchyroll’s existence. No more, I guarantee.

Premium service is a big waste of money. Paid for premium And this stupid company doesn’t even have the full manga story’s anyone who actually is interested in reading from start to finish don’t bother they don’t have one complete manga set absolutely worthless waste of time and money wish I could get a refund

Terrible Experience. Very, very poor app. For all the money that Crunchyroll collects I didn't expect sub par applications for their anime and manga services. Frequent crashing, app scaling issues with different resolutions, authentication issues, app not maintaining log in information, the app forgetting favourites. The competition is doing a far better job. Fix your applications now.

Good but.... Hi I love the manga app it’s got a few problems tho. Whenever I try to read the manga it always says bad gateway this is same for Crunchyroll and I also dislike the licensing problems I know this isn’t your fault but I’m sure everyone on the Crunchyroll team is doing their best but we want to have all the manga that the other regions have.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS. Why can’t I use the app it has been authenticating 2 whole days and I still can’t use it ( first time I have downloaded it) I want to know what is going on if it means I pay to read then fine by me but I can’t do anything so please help me and fix this thing

Rarely works upon opening. To get this app to work I have to uninstall then reinstall it every single time because it says “could not connect to the server”. I never write reviews but if this stops someone wasting their time with this trash app it would have been worth it

More variety. I’ve held a Crunchyroll premium membership for over a year and a half now and have love the service. When I discovered that there was a manga app I couldn’t have been more excited. Fast forward a few seconds of download and I don’t think I could have been more disappointed. Over all the app runs fine on my phone and has a few good manga. But that’s the thing a FEW. I think the app would greatly benefit from a larger variety. Even finding more niche manga with a few chapters. Just provide more choice. Of the select manga in the app some of them have missing chapters. There have been a few that I’ve wanted to read however it goes from chapter 1 straight to 18 no in between. My final thoughts. If you want to read some manga and don’t have a series in mind already this app is great for you (if you have a premium membership) otherwise you will be hard pressed to find what your looking for. If this app were to get a larger variety of manga and complete mangas I believe it will add a great incentive to buy a premium membership.

Terrible. First of all, why would someone put their email and password im some stupid random app, and second of all, this is terrible anime that no one watches, terrible. And third of all, why cant you just put all the regions in- i think this is a stupid fake version of Crunchyroll

Needs improvement. The app needs to be updated so it stops closing down a lot, plus be updated to fit on the iPhone 12 Pro Max and I’m guessing the same for the IPhone 13

Doesn’t have much. This app doesn’t have many known or popular manga and it doesn’t actually have many features or details for it so I wouldn’t recommend using as a manga app I expected it to at least have Naruto or Dragon ball or something, one of the more well known anime’s It does have Fairytail but not much else

App stopped working end of March 2021 on iOS. I really enjoyed this app and have the streaming app as well. This app stopped working after a recent iOS update and I see an app update hasn’t been released for some time.

Crunchyroll is the best. I love manga it good but there nothing in the manga and the seven deadly sin has 200 chapters and they chapter 1 and no 2 or 3 that all in gonna say not all crappy I’m just checking my self just how I feel about it, thank you.

Hey. So this is an alright app, but i'd like to request a landscape mode for Ipad if thats ever a thing in the future, like i'm reading an actual book. It would also feel more natural than holding up a giant thing vertically. Would try and use the version on Ios browser for this but both safari and chrome do not work, with chrome showing "not supported" and safari just not even trying to show the content. Wish it was a little more optimized seeing its a paid service.

Authenticating. When it works it’s great but lately been getting stuck on a screen that says authenticating for very long period of times.

More options. Needs more options within each genre of manga..not many too read.

App is broken. I cannot open the app- just says “authenticating” and nothing happens. I have to delete and reload the app and sign in every time, and that only works about 20% of the time. Beyond frustrating. I’ll be canceling my subscription forthwith.

Bugs all the time. Everyday I have to uninstall and re instal the app because it bugs and doesn’t let me to log in. Please fix this, it is super annoying.

"Authenticating" issues. I've barely been able to use the app. What little I saw seemed good, but now whenever I open the app all I get is an "authenticating" screen that I can't get past. About half the reviews mention this issue too, so it's not just me.

Good manga but big issue. I’ve been using the app for like 10 minutes swiped the page and it was just loading for 5 minutes. Donno what happened. Otherwise from that it’s very good, I do wish they would add a bigger variety of manga.

Forever authenticating. Can no longer use the app as it just says authenticating. I have had no issues in the past using this and have no issues with the anime app. I have tried reinstalling the app multiple times but alas this has achieved nothing. Pretty disappointed that I pay for a premium membership and cannot use the app.

It has sun-ken rock. I would have given it a 1 but since it has sun ken rock and is an addition to my Crunchyroll subscription I think it’s pretty good👌

OK manga app. OK but hard to find content, reading is well laid out though

A horrible marketing strategy. Dear Crunchyroll. Removing the first X chapters of a series is not driving people to buy the volumes but instead to pirating sites. Also I can’t see what I’m typing in this review so forgive any misspellings. Other than that, a nice off hand collection of manga to pair with my anime. Add in the full catalog of chapters for all your series instead of resorting to weird marketing tactics and I’ll change this to a 5 star review. Thanks.

Login never works. The login never works except for a few occasions during the day. Can’t rely on it to have something to read when you want to.

Constantly requires reinstall. Doesn’t support any modern iPhone screen size and randomly gets a no network error that cant be cleared without reinstalling the whole app.

No content. There is no content on this app not worth downloading have a great day

Not worth. I don’t see a single manga I’d want to read

“Authenticating Issue”. Will this problem ever be fixed? I’ve been a premium member for 6 years, but it seems that for the last 2 years or so the Crunchyroll Manga App just doesn’t seem to be working properly. It takes ages to load...I simply can’t access manga on mobile at all. I really love Crunchyroll, so I would love to be able to access manga on the phone again. Please fix this problem.

Don’t download it lol. There’s nothing on it. And like not in the sense of “nothing good” but like literally nothing on it. And it gets stuck in the authenticating loop?? Idk it’s dog water high do not reccomend lol

OIIII CRUNCHYROLL why does this crash so often. Bruh, it used to not crash. Why does it crash now?? I don’t understand I thought bug fixes were supposed to improve the user experience. Anyways Although it’s garbage I like to read official translations sometimes so fix it

Frequent issues. Sometimes the app just fails to connect to the network or authenticate and it seems the only fix is to reinstall it. I’ve done this a handful of times already. While reading a manga there will sometimes be pages or issues that refuse to load. I’ve used the app sparingly for about a year now and it still seems to have the same problems.

Practically nothing. The amount of manga is so incredibly limited, is it even worth this app existing? What a waste of space. I was so excited to read some manga only to be majorly bummed at the lack of titles. Sad.

Lacklustre Manga Selection. Hardly any manga worth reading on this app, the description even advertises Attack on Titan being one of the available to read mangas, this is false. Add to the fact that the ui is horrible with everything looking zoomed in and you have yourself a bad app.

Not worth my time. Everything is geared toward making people buy premium memberships. There aren’t enough non-premium chapters for me to know whether this app works well enough for m to want more. With the first chapter at the bottom it can be time consuming to begin a new story. I’ve often seen 404 errors as well.

Garbage app. If they have 10 mangas here is too much, garbage app to have to pay for this…..

Fix Your Authentication. +Surprisingly robust selection of manga that isn’t really advertised. -Every few weeks, the app will freeze and refuse to allow me in, citing an authentication error. This isn’t fixed until I delete and redownload the app. I don’t expect anything to be fixed with this. It seems like CR has completely abandoned development of this app.

Updates. i just got the subscription and wanted to read atot since im impatient. and there is barley any manga on here. i was hoping to broaden my search after catching up. also the app makes me feel like im using an iphone 4

Blah. Dose not work when I don’t use it often and have to delete and re-download it again just to get it to work again

Both the video and the manga app broken. Virtually impossible to watch a single episode or read a single book without server connection issues. Fail to connect, fail to authenticate, fail to load, buffer forever, etc. Just too many issues in the apps. Actually, even the website has these issues. Had a premium sub prepaid for a year, but I’ve now cancelled. Don’t waste your money here, get your manga and anime or shonen from the source. Terrible service.

terrible UI. very outdated. it’s like a time machine. even logging in on the app doesn’t let you use your actual apple keyboard.. it brings up this 10 year old iphone keyboard..? it only lets you use like 60% of your screen and the rest of you screen is a black margin. a terrible app. i was so appalled i wrote what i think is the first app review of my entire life

Half decent app. As an app from Crunchyroll I expected better service. The UI is out dated and it is constantly loggin me out, even in the middle of reading. Otherwise, I enjoy the manga provided and I look forward to reading them.

Too many bugs. App worked for about an hour before glitching out and I haven’t been able to get back in

Where is shield hero. where is the rising of the shield hero it shows in the previews you have it but you dont on the app

Crunchyroll manga. Where tf is bleach Naruto and one piece download shone jump instead

Meh. Add more stuff like mabye bleach, berserk, more aot an one punch man

Worst manga platform. So sad crunchyroll fat cats Can’t be bothered to to actually update or even add full series OR support manga authors by continuing there series instead randomly out of nowhere stop adding new chapters( also everyone everytime you leave the app it requires you too sign back into everytime it’s a little annoying but not as much as them being lazy asf)

Dissapointment. The collections are few and many are incomplete. Whats the point of this?

i want water. where tf is bleach

This app has almost no popular mangas lol. It sucks

App doesn’t work half the time. App just stops working - crashing on opening and logging me out constantly when it does actually open. More than half the manga I wanna read will have Chapter 1 and 2, then skip a bunch and go straight to a later chapter. I realize it’s a licensing thing but it’s kind of annoying when you can’t read the ones you want to read. There should be a “back to beginning of chapter” button in the app too - sometimes I want to reread a chapter and I have to swipe all the way to the beginning because it loads the last page. If you’re getting a Crunchyroll account just to read manga, don’t - there are better places to read manga for free on the internet.

Needs Work. Ive been a Crunchyfan for a few years, recently i’ve wanted to start reading the manga of the Anime ive fallen in love with year by year. Sadly Crunchyroll Manga falls short in the two months since ive first started to used it-small selection of content, two months without seeing any followed manga update new chapters, pretty much every chapter after 1 is locked by Crunchypremium (matters not for me as im a Prem user) and the app itself constantly looses connection to their servers forcing one to restart the app and re-login to continue reading. Hopefully soon after the fusion of Funi,waka and Crunchy are complete, more work, time and effort gets put into CrunchyManga. Till then i’m disappointed and hope for more.

Broken. This app either doesn’t support iOS 12 or it doesn’t support the XS Max. It just says “Authenticating...” forever on startup.

missing titles. I can access AOT on the website, but not on the app? Ripoff. Instead of producing garbage shows like High Guardian Spice, you should probably invest in optimizing your products.

This company doesn’t care about this app. Everything is in portrait mode, there are barely any manga and those mangas are not having full chapters, very bad app.

Inconvenient. It logs me out every time I close the app, which is annoying and makes me not want to use the app. It has a few manga that I’m interested in, but the selection could be better.

Can’t even open app - says network issue. Cannot connect to server, it says. So I can’t read anything. Also can’t bookmark my mangas.

Not a lot of manga. No good manga and only a few chapters of ok ones

Can’t find any manga. There aren’t any mangas here, it’s just a couple of them, can’t find dragon ball super, can’t find dr stone, can’t even find naruto. also i’m typing this from the app so the text on the review is white for me

Okay. I find it okay. There aren’t many popular titles and attack on Titan is missing everything from chapter 2 to 114. The app often crashes and I have to delete and redownload it

Crashes - no server found. Please fix. The developers obviously haven’t updated the app in over a year. This used to work fine for me but no longer does. If I open the app, a window will keep popping up nonstop saying “could not connect to the server, please check network connection.” I am actually a premium Crunchyroll subscriber but haven’t been able to enjoy their manga as much. Accessing them via computer browsers rather than via a mobile app leaves a lot to be desired

This app sucks. Whenever I enter my login info it always says incorrect

Ok. It advertised as having GTO and other classics. Some are there but need to be bought as full volumessss

Not worth it. Lots of mangas are not available here, search sometimes doesn’t work. The display or format is just worst than most free manga apps.

Can't read right to left anymore. This terrible app goes years without an update and when they finally update it you can no longer read anime in the Japanese style from right to left. There is nothing in the settings to change this. Crunchyroll is turning more into Funimation with English only dubs and American localization every day. Use a fansub website instead.

Auto authentification not working. It keep giving error msg and I have to log out and log in to be able to use it. This is beyond annoying. Beside that reading on it is pretty fluid and easy once we know the trick to continue to next chapter. I will raise my score. Once I no longer need to log in every hours.

Garbage app. This app is so bad it barely has any manga, i could make a manga app better then this in less then a day.

Could be better if improvements were made. The books themselves were interesting but the app would constantly crash making it hard to actually read.

disappointed. this app is very broken. it fails to launch often, and the only way to fix it is to delete the app and re-install it. i have to do this almost every time i want to use it. also not sure why some manga are missing a bunch of chapters. i've considered canceling my subscription several times because of this.

Ne marche plus. Ne marche plus depuis au moins 2 semaines

Started out amazing - now a huge disappointment. EDIT: I emailed them and they have no ETA of when the app will be fixed. “Unfortunately, we don't have an ETA of when the app will be fixed. But our technical team is definitely working on this. I hope this will not create inconveniences, and I do apologize if it does” Haven’t been able to open the app in so long now that I’ve just given up. What’s the point in being a premium member if I can’t access some of the features that crunchyroll obviously can’t be bothered to fix? since this has been going on for way too long. One of the worst apps I have ever used. It’s a shame because Crunchyroll’s anime app and their online store are amazing, but their manga app is unusable unless you delete and re-install the app every time you want to use it. Considering their manga service is part of the paid subscription, it feels like a slap in the face for them to have so many complaints and people reach out about issues with the manga app, for YEARS, and still have them not work on a solution.

“System Error please contact us for help”. So I downloaded both Crunchyroll and this app, and I made an account on Crunchyroll, and then when I tried to make on here it said “System error please contact us for help” and I didn’t know how to contact you guys so this is the only way I can ask you guys for help. So if you’re reading this please try to do something about it. PS: I love both of your apps. I would give it a 5* but there’s this error here so if you can fix it for me I would rate it 5* :)

Small selection and crashes more often than not. I am dissatisfied with the app. It crashes multiple times daily for me so I end up redownloading it several times a week to try and finish the books I was in the middle of. It also does not have very many to choose from, especially compared to how many stories it has the anime equivalent for. Some stories are also incomplete, with them offering the first chapter and then skipping a volume and resuming on like the 30th chapter? I only use it because I have a subscription anyway and I would like to support content creators by using official services instead of pirating online.

Could be WAY Better!. It’s a decent app, but extremely lackluster when it comes to content... “CrunchyRoll: Unlimited Anime and MANGA straight from Japan!” False advertising.... The app only has a collection of 30 or so mismatched mangas. The only manga that seems to have all of its chapters is FairyTail. Either take down the app and WORK on the licensing issue, so y’know it doesn’t feel like our Premium is being wasted....or add COMPLETE manga chapters? It’s frustrating that you can only read the FIRST chapter of a manga and the next chapter is like chapter 53 or something. Guess I’ll have to figure out what happens ONLINE since CrunchyRoll isn’t providing it...oh well.

Great app! Just needs some work…. I love reading manga and watching anime. The anime app is amazing, but the manga leaves something to be desired. The quality is perfect and even has a scene by scene guide instead just the while page. However, there is not very much manga on the app and you need to be a premium member to access most of it. It has a few of my favorite manga (including Fairy Tail and UQ holder) and I love reading them on my phone. As a premium member myself I thoroughly enjoy this app and I give it 4 stars, but if you aren’t a premium member you should go for a different app.

Buggy and unusable. In nearly all cases, gets stuck on “Authenticating.” If you leave the app open and try coming back to it later, you often receive a 400 error, “bad request.” The only fix is to force close the application and hope you can reopen it without getting stuck on the authenticating screen. This is with a paid membership. The issue was reported several times in the forums and no fix has come out in several years of this being a problem. Notifications seem to do nothing, even though I have them enabled. I would like to be notified when a new chapter of one of my favorited series is available. Experience is so terrible that I am contemplating canceling my membership.

Terrible. At first this app was good. I would give it a four out five stars. Some improvements like having more manga would be nice. However, over the course of the past year the app has gotten worse and worse. When you go to open the app, it will say cannot connect to server. You may say, “it’s an issue with your wifi” but I’ve also tried using data and have the same issue. The only known fix, delete app and redownload it. Do you have any idea how annoying it is to redownload an app just to read another page of manga? Only for it to disconnect from the server AGAIN. Once in a while, it would be an acceptable bug. After I very chapter, not so much. MUCH LESS AFTER ALMOST EVERY PAGE. DO NOT GET THIS APP UNTIL THEY COME OUT WITH A NEW UODATE FIXING IT.

Fix this app. Authenticating errors to bad gateways. Literally the only fix i have right now is to delete the app, read whatever chapter i choose, then delete the app and reinstall to read the next chapter. I can only view one chapter before i get a bad gateway error. This app isnt even properly optimized on ios. The ui isnt scaled correctly/low resolution. Can you guys get anyone to fix these errors or at least change how the website works to allow us to read it there? Cause if the official Viz website can let users see the chapter for free, i dont see why crunchyroll cant to the same and not requiring java or some outdated visual program to see the images.

Very good app but.... This app has potential along with help to read the manga and overall a nice selection on manga book to read all translated with full images. The only setback is that what they don’t want you to realize is that the app is mostly used as financial gain. Basically they will give you the first chapter of one of their mangas, then the rest of the chapter will be skipped till maybe the last 7. They do this to get readers interested and hopefully buy the actual manga it self in stores. So if you truly wish to read full manga series I don’t not suggest this app.

What kind of internet connection?. So I actually downloaded this twice and for some reason, each time it starts to say “cannot connect to server” when I open the app. I have an unlimited data plan that can move slow at times but not to the point an app is unusable. I assume this is some sort of bug but it is pretty obnoxious and has occurred twice now. The few minutes I could use the app were good and it it had a nice setup with a good selection of manga. If it is an app that only works with external WiFi then I would recommend fixing that.

Good but.... I personally don’t have a very big problem with this app. I don’t have any sort of glitches or bugs in the time I’ve used this app (being only a few months). However, I will say that the small amount of choice provided is definitely annoying. There’s certain mangas that is love to read, but they don’t appear on the selection. It gets annoying after some time. This also goes for Crunchyroll, but this is a different app. There are anime’s like “Tokyo Ghoul” “Angels of death” and many more. These anime’s are one of my favorite, but not being able to find the Manga is truly disappointing.

Good content, app doesnt work. Crunchyroll manga app does not function. The library (when it keeps me logged in) seems pretty good, but the actual ability of the app to function is awful. If I close the app I get logged out, and even though I’m a premium member, premium episodes error out. The layout is not intuitive. I would really like to use this app more but getting constantly logged out and not being able to load premium episodes was too frustrating. Hopefully they can give the manga app an overhaul but guessing they bit off too much to chew with the overall crunchyroll redesign.

This Needs to be Fixed. It can be a good app. It has a decent amount of mangas and is easy to navigate. But it never properly works. I can never even make it into the app to read, I’m always stuck with the Crunchyroll logo and the screen saying “Authenticating...”. I assure you that my app is up to date too. I had eventually given up on the app and came back, after months of not using it, to see if the problem was fixed, it was not. I’m still stuck on the same screen. Crunchyroll, if you want people to use and enjoy this app, I advise you to fix the problem. Because I’ve had enough of this.

I like it…when it works.. I just started getting into manga so I can’t comment on the quality or selection of this app. What I’ve read so far was enjoyable. What I can complain about is the constant loss of connection to the server. It usually occurs when I go to the next chapter and stays that way for some time. It’s not even an app issue because I tried the website and couldn’t login either. Kept on saying my login information was incorrect which it wasn’t. I could be blazing through chapters, but these interruptions are quite annoying.

Noticeably Improved. I haven’t had the dreaded authentication issue for a while, so hopefully that is fixed for good and I won’t have to regularly reinstall the app anymore. Also, the reading experience is full-screen now, thou it does handle two page spreads well. The manga selection is limited and doesn’t gain new titles often, but that is fine, as manga is more of a perk added to my Crunchyroll subscription. Still, a more robust selection would be great.

Good, but not complete. I like that this app is basically an extra thing you get if you have the crunchyroll anime subscription, so I won’t judge it too hard since Crunchyroll’s main focus isn’t really manga. But I can’t give it 5 stars because of the loading issue that everyone keeps talking about, and their selection seems really small. There are also mangas that are missing a bunch of chapters, and it’s such a bummer because they look interesting but they’re basically unreadable. Might as well not even have them on the app.

Great. But occasional technical difficulties.. An absolutely enjoyable app that makes reading manga easy and provides a decent catalogue to keep you interested. Perfect for breaks at work. It is smooth with good bookmarking and setting options, and easy to navigate. Technical difficulties however, are what keeps this from being a 5star. 1. “Authenticating” - sometimes the app will simply not load, and reinstalling it may or may not resolve this. 2. Minor, but page skipping can occur. Especially when going back and forth between pages or after moderate breaks between swiping to the next page; you will occasionally be directed to a page ahead of your proper destination. This can be identified easily by keeping an eye on the page number. If Crunchyroll can ever spare some staff to work out, at the very least the first problem, I’d be willing to give this app a 5.

Confusion regarding the app. This isn’t going to be as elaborate as the other ones, but I am just confused on why this is happening. I have Crunchyroll manga on both my iPad and my phone, same accounts on each, after at least 2 days after reading, it will not let me through saying that I have a network problem, even though everyones devices in my house are fine. It is an amazing app, but until you point that reason out, it’s frustrating. I don’t know exactly why this is happening.

UPDATE: somehow even less usable than before. They finally updated the app and, although I haven’t experienced the bug that forced you to uninstall and reinstall the app, I get frequent server connection errors when trying to load a chapter that end up signing me out. This app is a complete mess of getting signed out, having to sign back in, and getting some error almost immediately that restarts the process while not actually being able to read anything. Previous review: After a few days, you’ll get a connection error when opening the app and the only fix is to completely uninstall it, reinstall it, and log back in. Rinse and repeat.

Broken app. So, I started reading a manga, finished a chapter, and it asked me to log in to continue reading. No big deal, I thought, I have an account this should only take a second. So I put in my info, and it starts doing a loading swirl, saying “authenticating”. After a few seconds I think, huh this is taking a while. After a couple minutes, I think, huh, it crashed. I close out of the app, swiping it closed to fully turn it off, and open it again. It’s still trying to authenticate, even though I haven’t pressed any buttons yet. I delete it and re-download, still can’t authenticate. I try putting the app on a different device, still can’t authenticate. I check the reviews. Apparently the app just doesn’t work? Lame.

I just wish it’d work. It used to.. I gave up on this app a while back figuring it struggled on an older iPad. Trying it again from a new one and it doesn’t crash immediately on open anymore; now I can browse titles and add favorites, but it errors when I try to read anything. The app is currently useless, but I’m giving it 2 stars because there’s a lot of good content I’d enjoy reading if I could. 1 star would be for a useless app with zero worthwhile content, even though that’d be less sad because I wouldn’t feel like I’m missing out. Ready to change rating if it would ever function consistently on current gen tech.

Premium content. This app is great, but I don't have premium and 90% of this stuff only has a few chapters that are not premium. Why is this? It seems like you are focusing on your BIG fans that have premium, and not the middle schoolers that don't have parents that are willing to pay for a subscription. This is a big deal because I loved that AoT anime, and now I want to read the manga, but only chapter 1 is not premium. This app is great, but it's just better for non-premium people to go to a library. P.S.- add the One Piece manga.

Unable to access ANYTHING. I have been using Crunchyroll for a few years now. I enjoy my manga, I love to catch up on new anime, and CR has been the best at giving me that full experience. Until recent. The CR Manga app refuses to open. I have removed it from my device, and downloaded it again, and it would work until I logged on to access my bookmarked/favorited content and it would crash, only to restart the whole process. I don’t know if anyone else has ever had this issue, and I have done anything and everything I could to make sure it wasn’t an error on my end making the app just quit. I hate writing bad reviews but if the app is broken, it’s broke. Also- Nite that at the posting of this Review, the app hasn’t had a proper update in over a year. That just tells me that CR doesn’t care about their mobile consumers. Which I add is probably the most used item from a computer itself. Something needs to change CR. Until I see a new update on the CR Manga app, you have lost my membership.

Great content, but app could use some love. The app has felt neglected for the past couple years (still doesn’t natively support the iPhone 6 Plus resolution that has been available for... 3.5 years, not to mention the iPhone X screen size), and has had lots of connection issues (that have required deleting & reinstalling just to load anything), though hopefully the latest update fixes those. But it’s the most affordable way to read tons of great manga and some great series simulpub.

Needs “continue reading” feature. It is nice to have the app as a way to gain CR manga access (which I was under-utilizing), but there are some features that are lacking. 1) The app crashes often when starting a new chapter if I swipe while loading. Please fix this. 2) The app lets you “heart”/favorite certain series, but there isn’t a “continue reading” feature for a given series. People used to use physical bookmarks to keep their place. The app needs to give a way to continue from the last read page.

Buggy, but good options.. Like others have said, the app will not keep you logged in. It also crashes if you leave the app for too long or lock your screen to do something before coming back. Despite these annoying things, there are good manga available on the database, some of my favorites! Unfortunately I have had to reinstall the app several times because of the glitches. Particularly the glitch that continues to take over the screen to tell me there is no connection, even though there is no reason for a bad connection. Would give it 5 stars if it weren’t for the glitches.

I came to have a good time and it’s not happenin. I have a premium subscription to Crunchyroll for anime but saw there was manga so got excited. Within the last twenty minutes I’ve attempted to login, read one chapter, it tell me that I need to login, attempt to login five times, had to delete and then redownload the app and then instead of saying that it couldn’t log me in or something like that, it just closes the app whenever I attempt to open it. So had to delete and redownload and do all that over again. The one time it actually gave me an error message it said “internal server error”. Then it closed the app. So yeah. Pretty much the opposite of excited rn.

Ehhh.... Ok so, I have to say, crunchyroll manga has a great setup! It’s actually a pretty good app! Accept for one thing... there are no recognizable mangas!!! And that wouldn’t be a problem, accept for the fact that all of the mangas need premium to read! I have a library 5 minutes from where I live that is more convenient for finding manga than this app. I think this is a great app for the people who can afford premium, however I cannot and the library is free. I suggest that this app should be given at least a few more mangas if you want it to be worth paying for.

It’s good, not great.. Having access to select chapters of certain series is a pretty neat benefit of Crunchyroll premium; HOWEVER, it’d be nice if the app worked a little better. It keeps logging me out every time I close the app, every other chapter I read there’s this “de-syncing” message which also means I got logged out. And to top it off: some of my favorites never save. Four stars, because it’s not terrible. One star less, because I feel like it could be a problem that’d easily fix.

More books. There should be more books, for the most part there are hardly any, I was expecting all the manga to be here but there weren’t a lot, I was expecting more seeing as Crunchyroll itself has a lot of tv shows, so I was pretty disappointed, I do like the set up though, but wish there was a place where you can look up genres, or at least have the genres said in the books at least but there aren’t any, so all in all, I just expected more seeing as crunchyroll is really amazing (something like the crunchyroll set up but just manga)

Disappointed. Huge fan of Crunchyroll, been a premium member since high school...so a little over 4 years now. And I can tell you that for that entire time span this app has had the same “authenticating” and “no server connection” error with little to nothing done to fix it. And it’s no small deal, because the error itself blocks you from using the app. The only alternative is to delete the app and reinstall, hoping it’ll work the second time. And if that doesn’t work, just read the manga on a PC. All in all, still enjoy the service greatly, but disappointed as to how they’ve handled this app of theirs.

Bad Internet?. Overall, I love this game. It has so many mangas to choose from, but there are 2 problems that are pretty big. 1. The order of the chapters isn’t right for some mangas. For example, in Edens Zero, it goes straight from chapter 1 to chapter 33 with nothing in between. I had to go to another website to read all the other chapters. 2. The morning after the day I installed it, it says “Could not connect to server. Please check your network connection.” My network is completely fine and this is the second time this has happened! I deleted and installed this game again. It work perfectly on the day I installed it, but again, the next morning it won’t let me in. Please fix these major bugs. I love this app and reading the mangas. Edens Zero isn’t even an anime yet so I can’t just switch! Thank u for reading this review and please take note of what I wrote.

You’re better off using your phone’s web browser.. The app has an okay selection (I would honestly expect more from Crunchyroll) and is easy to navigate. The problem comes from the “network error” issue that many people have mentioned. It makes the app completely unusable unless you want to constantly be deleting and reinstalling it. The app would be fantastic if they just fixed this issue, but it seems to have gone untouched for years at this point, so you’re better off just opening the Crunchyroll website in your device’s web browser and reading from there. This is so disappointing for a service I have PAID FOR for years on end.

improvements desperately needed. This app has been out for almost 7 years and barley has content and the content they do have maybe you can read 2-3 chapters at most for free the rest of paid for which I don’t mind as I already had a subscription to Crunchyroll but the problem is that their missing chapters for aot and some other mangas the content is small for a paid service it’s not even worth getting it free with the anime services and the last update was a YEAR ago how could you use an active paid subscription service WHICH HAS ALMOST NO CONTENT I wish I could make it clearer it has no content in the manga section

App Barely Works. I pay for a Crunchyroll subscription monthly, but this app seems to have little funding going towards maintenance. The app was last updated over a year ago, so it is still not optimized for iPhone X, which is slightly annoying because their main Crunchyroll app is (and this is the only app on my phone that has not been upgraded yet). Starting about a few months ago, every time I tried to use the app, the “Authenticating” screen would sit there forever and never load the app. Recently, I deleted and reinstalled the app, but now I cannot login, only sitting at the loading screen after typing in my login credentials. To put it simply, I cannot use an app that I pay for monthly. This is very disappointing.

too many bugs!!. I got premium crunchyroll and thought “heck, I’ll try all of it” so I downloaded this. When I browsed the manga to find one, the app suddenly quit. I tried multiple times to find a manga that interested me (which was a while because there wasn’t much selection in the genres I liked). When I did find one to read, the app kicked me out in the chapter selection screen and I had to try again. Additionally, the credits portion in it is too small for the mobile screen to handle. I could barely make out the author/publisher’s name! This app has potential and if it was redone it could be so much better.

in serious need of an update. while there is a decent amount of content on this app there seems to be bizarre gaps between chapters, like how fairy tail jumps from chapter 22 to 165. there seems to also be no updates to chapters and all the manga seem very behind. there’s also an issue with UI. it seems like the app was made around the iphone 4s era and was since never updated. i feel that if this app were updated and maintained better it would be amazing! but until that happens i’d rather read manga on other platforms. such a shame too, it seems like an amazing add on to already paying for crunchyroll streaming service

Outdated UI and Authenticating App Crash. When you first open up the app, you’ll notice how outdated it looks. The keyboard looks like something from years back and all of the buttons and shortcut icons are unnecessarily large. The app crashes after a certain number of usages. There is nothing you can do about it besides reinstalling. It will say authenticating and crash immediately. Looks like this has been a problem for a long time. Don’t know why they still haven’t fixed this bug since it prevents the user from being able to access their own app.

Crunchyroll doesn’t care and it’s sad. Crunchyroll obviously doesn't care about updating their apps and that goes for their whole site so it’s no wonder that the manga app would be neglected for over a year. The app is outdated as mentioned by other reviewers and when running into the authentication you’re better off deleting the app and re downloading it if you want to use it because it’s never going to authenticate. Honestly it’s nice that Crunchyroll even provides us with free legal manga to read but that’s the only benefit I’m going to give them. Also maybe instead of creating an original anime they should first focus on their outdated site and apps. Idk just my opinion I guess overall 1 out 5 stars not enough effort but at least you tried.

I’m dead.. How can one of the best anime stream services have the worst manga app? I literally only have it still to keep up with two titles. It boots you off everytime you close the app and have to sign back in. They tease you with releasing a few chapters of a really good manga and then never update it or add anymore. So you end up looking somewhere else to finish it. Hey. If you like AOT or To Your Eternity then you enjoy it til you finish them. I guess it’s a cool app since it’s free if you have a Crunchyroll account already. If you don’t and want to read manga, look somewhere else that stays updated.

Hot Garbo. Crunchyroll has been bugging me for a while with their lack of care for their product. I pay a subscription for quality media but in reality I only get about 50% of what I pay for. Every time I try to use the Crunchyroll manga app I’m met with a loading screen that says “authenticating”. Very rarely am I able to get past this screen without re-downloading the app. On top of that I can’t actually log into my account because every time I try to log in it says “Login Request Failed”, it doesn’t matter if I put the right password in. Pair that with a awful user interface and I just feel mad. I have good things to say about their anime app, but their manga app is hot garbage. C’mon Crunchyroll, I’m rooting for you. Sincerely, Crunchyroll subscriber

That app that will authenticate forever. I had this app on my phone for awhile and couldn’t remember why I didn’t use it that much. I tried to recently and remembered why. I was able to read a chapter before it asked me to log in. No problem, i have had a premium account for years. Tried signing in and got the “authenticating” screen. Waited a few minutes and nothing. Checked around on the internet and saw this is a common problem. Deleted the app and reinstalled, this was late last night btw. Tried to log back on and once again got the authentication screen. Force quit does not end this process. Thought I would wait it out. I accidentally fell asleep and when I woke up this morning I found that the app was still authenticating! Crunchyroll has good content. Like i said, I have been a member for years. But this app makes me question if they even care about their customers anymore. Don’t let your success go to your head crunchyroll!

Moral issues. I like many others want to go through official channels to show support for mangas we love. But JFC I’ve had to uninstall and reinstall and repeat for years to keep reading things through here. How does the legitimate source for them keep sucking worse than illegitimate ones? Disconnects all the time and now can’t even keep track of what I last read! So I’m stuck trying to show support for mangas I love so they can hopefully see it officially or having to continue reading elsewhere. Seriously English official manga apps keep losing to unofficial ones in so many ways. I want to support the official release so freaking badly, but idk why they make it so hard.

Decent manga app but few options. The biggest issue with this app is the few manga that it has. The way it works for iPad it also not good. Comparing this app to manga rock, a 5 Star app, brings to light the problems it has. But the app has potential, if this app starts bringing mangas that manga rock doesn’t have like Overlord, One piece, One punch man, a certain magical index, etc. Then it will became much better, minimum a 4 Star app. Guys stop spending in Japanese dramas, nobody like those, we members are only interested on anime and manga. Please show more love to this app and it will be great.

Update first then original App not good but since free with anime worth it?. For the update I finally found a good one and after being half way the the manga disappeared. The worst part is none of the other ones were updated. Complete trash. Original message below I constantly have to re-log in since it boots me out and not near as good as the app JUMP makes and I would never pay crunchy roll for their app. Since the crunchy roll anime provider is the only option and is worth the price it is a nice little add on but only worth one star. I read most of the JUMP manga app so now I am using this for more manga options but… well one star

I want this fixed please. Ok i fixed the blacking out issue i guess it was more of my phone not wanting to work but this time i am 80% sure it is the app every time i try to log in or load into the app it just says couldn’t connect to server test network connection something like that but even if i am on wifi or data and if I deleted the app and re download it works but if i dont use it for a few days it will just pop up as not connecting so if you could fix this Crunchyroll I appreciate

THIS CANNOT CONTINUE. The app in and of itself is pretty good except when it decides to completely implode and somehow be unable to connect to the internet via cellular, WiFi or any other means. At first I thought it was just a one time thing until I restarted my phone only to have it happen again. And again. And again. Again again again again again again. I forcefully closed it and restarted my phone and forgot about it only to open it months later and have it do the same thing. Ironically it asked me to review the app but proceeded to also say it cannot connect. So here I am. I can’t imagine what made the application act in such a way and can rightly say I’m not particularly inclined to give it another chance.

When was the last update?. I was super excited to get Crunchyroll, when I heard Funimation was transferring over. I was even more excited when I heard Crunchyroll had manga. Sadly I’m more disappointed than satisfied. Between the actual crunchy roll app being super difficult to find dub anime, and this app I have almost decided to get rid of Crunchyroll. This app doesn’t look like it’s been updated since the first iPhone. And the selection of books is limited, if you can even call it limited. They have Attack on Titan as one of their big mangas, yet they only have 13 chapters. Just don’t download this app. It is not worth it as off now. It could be amazing, but it isn’t a complete app.

Not working anymore. This App has stopped working for me. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app multiple times and the issues still persist. 1) I can’t login to my profile anymore. Whenever I try I always receive a login files prompt. 2) When I was able to login before my recurring problem was the app would go through a “authentication” process and not load the app. I had the app open for an hour and it still wouldn’t load. Please fix this problem.

Wish it worked. As the title says, this app just sticks in a loop where it says it can’t connect to the server. It wasn’t always like that, for about a year it worked great. Then, it just started with a authentication loop, which I ended up giving up on it. Then just left it for a year or so, came back in hopes they got it working and... It has now gone on to a new issue where it says it can’t connect. I have zero problems with the anime app, which is good because if that started to fail like this one I would unsub and they wouldn’t get a dime out of me going forward. Btw, when it used to work I would give it a full five stars!
