Still a good app but...
Need to update more, having crash issues when trying to read comics and for $5 I expect some more updating. Will be using another app until you get things together.

$5 for this ???
One of the worst comic app out in the market. Massive waist of money. And it's in able to even load all the comic. Unimpressed and disappointed by this application

Awful
Well i bought this app hoping the best, turned a terrible app with some annoying bugs. You can't drag and drop comics into folders, slider feature doesn't work as you want and every time i hit the insert first option, it crashes. Even free cbr apps are much better than this one.

Decent app, but no Drive or customer support.
This is not a bad comic viewer app. It has a decently clean UI, easy to understand library management and an automatic scroll function (a poor man's version of Comixology Guided View). My main problem is that in order to get any comic into this reader, I have to physically be at my computer. Attempting to download comic from Google Drive does not work at all. Going through Comic Zeal, I can see all of the files, but they are all greyed out and unable to be selected. If I go through the Google Drive app and try to "Open In" the Comic Zeal app (which some noted on the support website was at one point a valid workaround), it says I have no apps that can open that file type. This is for both .cbr and .cbz files. On top of that, there are numorous threads on the Comic Zeal customer support site about this very same issue...some from as long as 3+ years ago. There are no comments from them on any that it's being worked on or even acknowledge that it's an issue. If this was a free app, then I wouldn't care and my score would probably be higher. However, this isn't free, and is actually quite expensive by comparison. I honestly feel ripped off having paid $5 for this app, considering I believe this is the first app that I have actually paid for, hoping it would be worth it and stand out. If they do fix this issue, I will gladly raise my score. As it stands, this feels like an attempt to steal money from people by promising them something that stands above all others, and it fails in that attempt.

PLEASE UPDATE SOON
It has been working fine, with almost no problems besides a few small personal preferences, but lately comics have gone completely missing from my rack, they'd be in a group, and show in the number of comics in that group but they're completely gone when you go into the group, please fix this fast.

$5 for this ???
First of all this app freezes a lot. I can pan the images with out the app freezing and. First I thought it was the file but every file I've loaded all do the same thing. I can't enjoy the comic if I can't see all the pictures. Update and fix asap I'm extremely disappointed with this app and for the price I expected perfection

Deletes books
More or less a good app, but lately it’s been randomly deleting books I haven’t read yet. Tried to troubleshoot but support is practically nil.

Horrible app
Horrible app! Was able to download about 13 comics, but I can download a thing. Do not waste your money on this awful app

One. By. One.
I wish I knew that I'd have to import my books one by one before I paid for this app. I'm really annoyed. Doesn't matter how good the reader is if it takes forever just to get your books into it.

This app is awful
I've spent 3 hours trying to get a single comic into this. No support is available that actually helps. It seems like they don't care at all to help. Awful app, please save your money.
