What's new

  • App Store: the Mac app is now also on the App Store, as part of the same download as the iPhone and iPad app (bundle id de.wiredframe.comicreader since 3.1.0).
  • Sample comics: a fresh, empty library starts with six original sample comics. They can be deleted and never come back.
  • Backups: restoring a backup can no longer leave two entries sharing one comic file, and exporting over an older backup replaces it only once the new one is written.
  • File type: the app now declares its own CBZ type (de.wiredframe.comicreader.cbz, as on iOS) and no longer claims Simple Comic's.
  • Smaller fixes: library folder can't be changed during a scan, page grid thumbnails are released when scrolled away, menu commands are disabled when they can't act, Help opens the website, "Remove All Downloads" saves once.
  • Privacy manifest added (no tracking, no data collected).
