The set up for this app may be more than others you’ve come across, but I promise it’s worth it. You can find the instructions online (Reddit is what I used) and it gives you access to multiple sources so you can find whatever you’re wanting. I’ve been able to find everything I’ve wanted so far and having multiple sources makes it easy if a chapter is messed up on one source to easily find another. It’s free as well! I bought the lifetime unlock because I love the app so much and like the color customization and no ads. 10/10 recommend.

I've been using this app for a while, and I genuinely appreciate the effort that’s gone into making it such a useful tool. It’s such a great app for us Tachiyomi/Mihon fans.

However, I was disappointed to find that the Face ID and passcode lock features are locked behind a subscription. While I understand the need to monetize the app, I believe that basic security features like these should be available to all users. In today’s world, protecting personal data is crucial, and it feels unfair to restrict such essential privacy tools.

I think making these features accessible to everyone would not only enhance user trust but also show that the developers truly care about the safety and privacy of their entire user base, not just those who can afford to pay for a subscription.

Another thing, adding the option to backup files to Google drive would be a great addition.

I hope the developers will reconsider this decision. The app is already great, but making security features free for all users would make it even better. And an immediate 5 star.

I was a huge Paperback user when the reader first came out. Over time, it got sluggish and extension support dwindled as the dev slowly shuttered the community in order to go public. In comes Tachimanga. It remains stable where other readers would crash, extensions are up to date and functional, and the app is receiving true updates. There’s some missing functionality that I would love, such as setting a specific library to default to a certain reader mode. But, for what it is now, save for the ads (shoutout NextDNS for blocking those), it’s an amazing reader app.
