      @cassydd The app not being able to rotate was a major complaint people had with the old version. I see the ability to rotate as an improvement. It's very simple to lock screen orientation on iOS, I leave mine permanently on on my phone unless I need to rotate the screen.

        I just launched the new updated version so I will use it for a while and see, but I feel like the font increase isn’t as good as it use to be. The title for the chapter got larger but the overall font didn’t seem to increase as much as I would of liked. It also seems a little more sluggish now.

          I want to say ‘there’s a J Novel Club app?’, but if the internet has taught me anything, it that there’s an app for everything beside changing people genders and controlling their minds...

            @cassydd OMG this thing is gonna make my reading so much easier! All we need is for it to be updated for us to go to the forums and I’ll never have to open my internet app again.
            Just checked... a way to purchase through it would also be cool, but I can be cool and still buy from the site.

              @oathkeeper95 There are links on the series pages that take you to the purchase page on the website.

                  @legitpancake OMG, I never knew why my light novels had so many instances of characters saying >em em< in strange places until now! I thought it was some strange Japanese thing I didn’t get.

                    Is there a way to access the books in my library with the app? Tried starting a re-read on my ipad, but can't find a way to access my library. When I tried going to series which I know I have, it only offers the option to buy the book. I'm actually asking if it still requires third party software to read books which have been purchased, or is there something I'm not seeing.

                      @pleco_breeder nope no way to access your purchased books via the JNC app you do require third-party apps or proprietary apps on your device like iBooks from apple of google play books from android

                      Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

                          using ipad pro w/ 1OS 13 and iphone 7 (also iOS 13) if set to pagination vs scrolling when reading pre-pubs, app doesn't stop on one page (unusable in page turn mode, vertical scrolling seems to work ok)

                          I don't like scrolling as app does not keep track of reading progress in that mode. If I stop to answer a call or whatever and return to the app- jumps back to 0.0% and I have to scroll back down to where I think I left off...

                          (basically pagination is not working)

                          I read banned books

                            @jon-mitchell It works if you tap to turn the page instead of swipe. More pressing is that it has been over a year since we've had a beta build that actually displays all insert images correctly.
