Website and App
-
Are you all going to be doing anything regarding your website and app? Or at the very least allow us to read from a third party app. The silence or deflection around this topic is frustrating. I understand you all are busy with translating and acquiring new content, but if we can’t read or even sort through what we are reading efficiently what’s the point of even signing up for premium membership?

There are at least 3 unofficial fan-made apps.

I have iOS, the one link works well, but I am
skeptical to sign into something that hasn’t gotten the okay from j-novel (unless I missed it, which is possible).At this point I wait and buy the volume using my credits, but I miss reading everything as the chapters come out on a weekly basis. It is frustrating when there are so many sites and apps that aren’t funded but can pull off better organization, search and tracking functions, and readers.
Heck even if they updated their site and made it easier to navigate and find things with a decent online reader I am sure it would satisfy most of us. For an online digital platform they are falling well behind many of their peers.

There is also the issue that they (j-novel and mods) rarely ever address this issue to anyone making an inquiry. If the topic has been made already and recently addressed (within the last months), please direct me to that thread, as the forums are horribly maintained and finding stuff here is burdensome.

The app works just fine on my iPhone 8, at least. I rarely have any problems. Though not having a favorite/history option is getting more and more annoying with how huge JNC's catalog is getting.

On my iPhone X the scroll down option stopped working after the last iOS update. Plus a lot of other issues. But I also agree, having a good search function, bookmark function or currently reading or a favourites option would be nice haha.

@Talian Did you switch to horizontal, applied it, and then switched back to vertical? That fixed it for me. Also when I open a prepub in dark mode no text has been showing up, so I have to apply it in sepia and then back to dark background.

Well changing the dark and light modes seemed to fix it. Temporarily at least! Thanks!
