      @alfonso_rd_36 As long as it works for you.

      To be fair, the app has some optimizations which would probably break if the screen is large enough.

      Quof got a break.

        So far the only issue on PC is the inhability of moving left to right, which makes the long series hard to read, but other than that, it works like a charm, it would be nice to package it as an app too, as my current Chrome on Android has 30 tabs open, but I think I can do that on my own, I hope this ain't a problem, yes?

        I wanted to have a witty signature once I saw some of the ones some guys on the Bookworm forums had but None of the ones I thought felt witty enough...

          You mean with the arrow keys on the keyboard? If you click on the text itself, keys should then work. It needs the correct element to have the focus. (Not ideal nonetheless.)

          I don't mind. Technically, it's a PWA and should allow to be "Added to the Home Screen" without some apk package. At least on iOS it does, but perhaps on Android it needs something else.

            @Crimson-Wise On android you just select add to home screen on your browser, same as iOS.

              Yes, the Add to home screen function would work too and be all there is... Might have to check up the results though...

              UPDATE

              Here are some screenshots of the App on my Win 10 Google Chrome:

                Great app! I use it on Chrome so that I have a reading list. (Now, if there were only something that worked on my e-ink Kindle...)

                Anyway, It seems I'm no longer able to sign in to my account. My favorites are all there, but my reading progress is gone and I can't open any members-only parts.

                I can still sign in to the official JNC web site, although I just now needed to sign in there with my email address and not my username, so maybe they changed something there.

                  @Iseguy Hi! Can you hard reload the page (Ctrl + F5) ? Did an upgrade earlier today and I seem to have some some caching issues.

                    welp, finally managed to make the lñong series move (Click on the esries, then the arrows on the keyboard)

                      @Crimson-Wise Thanks for the updates! I noticed the “information” option; that's nice to have.

                      Unfortunately, refreshing doesn't seem to help. I also tried selecting “disable cache” in DevTools, didn't work either. Maybe a CDN cache needs to be invalidated?

                        @Crimson-Wise OK, I was able to find a workaround. I reached into jncu-db and deleted the “user” and “login” keys. “.data” was undefined for both, but after deleting them and logging in again they're populated with reasonable data. Everything seems to be working now.

                          @Iseguy Interesting, thanks for letting me know, will add some safeguard for it most likely, whatever the cause was.

                            As I said, for the "long series" (multiple volume series like Book-a-Worm or Demon Lord Retry!) When using the phone one can just swipe left or right and it moves to display the older prepubs, but on PC? There are no gestures on PC, so I assumed that one couldn't get to read those older prepubs, but lo and behold, once reading DLR! I clicked on the area of the book and then upon pressing the arrow keys, it moved!

                              @alfonso_rd_36 Ah, get you know. I was using the horizontal scrolling from my mouse so didn't pay too much attention to that behaviour. (Not that I use it that much on my computer either.)

                                Seems this has stopped working. Screen goes blank after a couple of seconds, I'd say it might be getting blocked by the API.

                                  @sniper_samurai Not really, but some "inconsistency" on JNC's data if I can call it that - Potion Loli 5 has a part but is missing the volume on the JNC API, which crashes my app.

                                  I pushed a workaround like a couple of hours ago, can you refresh the page if you're in the browser?

                                  If you have it on the iOS Home Screen, it takes like a day before the website gets invalidated and refreshed, so tomorrow should be fine - I still need to figure out how to fix this.

                                    @Crimson-Wise Yeah, just checked the website. Seems to show all the future parts of Potion Loli 5 as well, even though they aren't available yet.

                                      Works very well, I use it on a iPad and a iphone +. The following section works very well, I also like that it shows which parts have been read. So much better then the app.

                                          On Android phone and the UI works well and the functionality and reliability is better than the official all. Since it launched it has remained my go to reader.
