JNC App version 3.2 on iPadOS 26.1
The top right menu drop-down to access the forum and settings menu seems to be designed for mouse clicks. The previous version of the app will keep showing the drop down menu after the first tap. In this new version it will hide it automatically once the finger is lifted. It is quite tricky to tap the drop down and then the forum menu item quickly in order to access it.

Hi, not sure if this will be seen, but my app updated (version 3.3.0) about three days ago I wanted to ask if you put back the star (following) in the series tab. It was removed and I don't like not having a quick access to what I was following like before.
-
@agome1 scroll up. There's a toggle for that at the top, but it's in the content area and not the header bar now. And the page loads by default with it scrolled off the top.
-
@pcj wow I can't believe I didn't notice that. Thanks!
-
@agome1 it wasn't exactly discoverable. The only reason I found it was because they listed off some new filter options in the release notes and I couldn't find them so I was looking around everywhere trying to find them.
-
Please have the app remember the "Follow Only" option. It's irritating having to turn on an option I have use almost all the time whenever I open the app.
If you want people to see newly added series, then just have the app tell us when a new series has been added.
-
Yeah, I was also caught off guard with this new app version, and thought you just couldn't filter anything any longer. I really don't feel like it's a great design to have a whole bunch of features hidden in an area that the app gives you no indication contains anything by default. My first impression isn't to try dragging all the edges of the screen to see if there are any weirdly hidden features, but rather, "Oh, damn, they removed all the most useful features. That sucks."
At least make it an expandable menu, or put a pull-tab there to give the user a hint that what they're looking for is hidden at the top of the screen.

hello, I got a few suggestions which are largely my personal opinion:
- the app reader could have volume keys controlled page turning, like some others, it is really nice to be able to read hands off the screen.
- I like the way jnovel web groups together series and allows you to buy more. now I am pretty sure that doing that exactly that way would be pointless because the app has a slightly different function which is reading, but the library is a bit messy at the moment to say the least and going back to the series "store page" is more work than I would like (I won't die, but ideally UX wise...).
- I think the library should be a bigger focus rather than chucked into the user tab, it should have its own section at the bottom for example, I use that the most to give quick peeks at stuff I have not worried about downloading on the given device, this may not be true of all but who knows.
-
@gabrielesilinic if they took suggestions into consideration, they would never have downgraded the app, which now sucks so bad compared to the previous version is making me rethink my subscription.

Trying to read “I Want to Escape from Princess Lessons (Manga) Volume 7 Chapter 2” in the app, trying to turn to the second page causes an “Already Destroyed” message on a blank page to display and turning another page takes me to the end of the chapter. Not sure if this is an app issue or a chapter issue, though…
-
Hi,
Thank you for reporting and sorry for the inconveince.
We can't seem to reproduce this in the app, Chapter 2 loads fully through. IT also work on desktop.
Do you have any extra info, or can you try to switch on/off wifi and cellular?

@presea I am also having this issue with the oblivious saint can't contain her power volume 7 ch1 and 2
Edit: seems to be all manga for me even ones I've purchased with coins

Similar/same issue with manga on android 3.4.0, if I tap the screen it get the destroyed message but I am able to swipe through the manga if I avoid any screen taps. I've tried removing all data and restarting, but no change nor has complete removal and reinstallation helped.
-
I tried it both on Wi-Fi and cellular (5G) and the same issue occurred. I’m on the app v3.4.0 and iOS 26.5. I tried powering off my phone and turning it back on but that didn’t do anything either.
Edit: The reader is set for horizontal (right to left) scrolling, and tapping the left side of the screen to turn the page causes the issue. However using the scroll bar on the bottom I can read everything. Also changing to vertical scrolling allows me to swipe up and down through all the content.
-
The new version of the app is displaying paragraphs with too much spacing in my opinion and the options for advanced reading settings are inaccessible because the settings pop up doesn’t scroll down. Also I really miss the option of turning the page by tapping the side instead of manually scrolling(not sure if this is an intentional removal or not).IOS
