      @pcj @_08 This is a known issue, and listed in the list of known issues which can be found on the app's splash page. I've also updated the first post with this list.

        On iOS at least the auto-login feature via LastPass worked fine for me.

              All the novels I found missing have showed up in the list now, plus a few manga I didn't pay attention to when I first looked. Thanks!

              • 'Favorites or Hide list' or other manners of filter
                • Examples of possible filters include: read/unread chapters, catch up, near expiration, completed series, one shot, tags.

              I strongly support this suggestion! (says someone who starts desperately binging volumes around the 10th of each month)

                Note to people reporting via testflight: It seems there's now way to acknowledge or reply to your feedback, so I'll just say that I am looking through it.

                  Note 8

                  Broken format and it seems the font is correctly synced between scroll mode and swipe mode (such as 120% and 70% repspectively for font size to actually see character at same scale). Additionally, justified mode is sometimes broken.

                  First image is for scroll mode, 2nd is for swipe mode, both should be in the same font and justified mode.

                    The button that says next part when reading manga doesn't seem to work. The next part button at the bottom works fine though.

                    Of note, the chapter it says I'm at the end of is glitchy. It seems to correspond to the chapter I initially select from the list after selecting a volume instead of the actual chapter. So if I started reading from chapter 1, it always says end of chapter 1. If I started from chapter 3, it says end of chapter 3, even if I went back to chapter 1.

                      @Romariel That's listed in the known issues:

                      • Reader lastpage next button doesn't do anything yet

                        LDM v13p6 seems to be missing in the releases for me (myskaros helped confirm its not a global issue as he still sees it. I have tried restarting the app as well as refreshing (through the pull to refresh). Am on Android. The part does show in the series listing for LDM.
                        Me:
                        what I see
                        Mysk:
                        what mysk sees

                        Edit: looking more closely now a few more are also missing, like Holmes and Kokoro Connect

                          @myskaros Coulda sworn I didn't see it in there :/ I checked it in the app and the first page before posting and still missed it FML.

                          It still gives the wrong chapter number though.

                            @Cibastian thanks for noticing that bug, it was a similar issue as the series page. It's been fixed

                                On a lenovo android 7.1.1 tablet I find that the sizing is inconsistent between paginated and scrolling. For paginated 100% is OK but when switching to scrolling I need to shrink it to 60%. Italicised lettering does not appear to scale with non-italicised so they only match at 100%.

                                  1. When viewing images, they are not in the center, they tend to align to the left side leaves a big black space on the right. Hopefully it can be aligned to be in the center. Image

                                    Not sure if this has been brought up...but the thumbnails on android are partially cut off, on both top and bottom.

                                    Here is a comparison between old app and new.

                                    spoiler

                                    Don't think it's just my device, if you look a couple posts up at @Cibastian images, they are also cut off.

                                    I suppose this could be by design, to fit more without scrolling, but I think I'd prefer a full thumbnail with less series showing.

                                      A new beta release (0.2.0) has been sent to Apple and Google for approval.

                                      Fixes:

                                      • LN reader missing proper text styling (centered text etc.) - NOTE this applies to vertical reader, horizontal reader will be improved next build
                                      • Paragraphs are not indented
                                      • Italic/bold text does not scale properly
                                      • Can't toggle interface/change page when pressing on image in novel reader
                                      • Tile views can now have more items per row on wider screens
                                      • Novel font selection doesn't work
                                      • Reading direction not saved
                                      • Filtering series by follows/catchups
                                      • Tapping up/down in vertical scrolls a bit less ( @Nosgoroth )
                                      • Various bugs

                                      Next build, points so far for fixing:

                                      • Fix horizontal novel reading
                                      • Deal with expiring sessions
                                      • Fully implement last page in reader
                                      • Reader settings dialog fixes
                                      • Progress sync issues when switching between parts
                                      • more...

                                          • On iOS 14 I still have to set the font to like 350% on vertical in order for it to be readable.
                                          • On the series page, I wish clicking only manga would be available without using the search button. Putting it in the filter would be better in my opinion.
                                            • On that note, clicking "Only follows" makes the list infinitely scrolling. I can scroll down forever and it will never reach the bottom.
                                          • Would be nice if the latest volumes would be at the top in a series page. Scrolling down 20 volumes every time I go to Smartphone is not ideal.
                                          • Theme selection is still messed up on iPhone 8 iOS 14.
                                          • Double manga spreads (or just every other page) should be stitched together when turning to landscape orientation. If you have access to the Shonen Jump app, that would be my preferred way to do it.
                                            • On that note, personally I would prefer if all touch-to-turn-page would be turned off on manga, and only have swipe as the way to turn pages. That's how it is on the Shonen Jump app and in my opinion it helps make pinch-to-zoom less glitchy (and it is super glitchy here).
                                          • Horizontal novel reading is almost unusable as you know so I don't even touch it. The font size seems to scale very differently from vertical.
                                          • Lastly, I once again hope TTS will be considered in the future, as the current official app handles it almost perfectly (on iOS).

                                            @sinnoaria Thanks for your feedback

                                            On trying to view Following (filter): Exception: Failed loading series: DioError [DioErrorType.RESPONSE]: Http status error [500]

                                            Will be fixed soon, won't require an app update

                                            Images are cut off [...]

                                            A screenshot of this noticeable effect would be appreciated. The covers on releases are still being cropped a bit on bottom/top, which is intentional since image ratio may vary, but any other cut off parts are an issue

                                            Page length issue still exists
                                            Text size difference
                                            Seeing some pretty extreme lag in horizontal mode

                                            It seems that was/is an issue on the horizontal novel reader, in which case I am going to be fixing the horizontal reader next build. I'll be checking on these issues, a list of devices would be appreciated

                                            Seems a bit odd that the novel/manga and following/catchup filters are separate from each other

                                            Design isn't final, will be improving it later on when important issues have been fixed

                                            Menu should be overlay etc.

                                            Yep, is planned

                                            Status bar not disappearing

                                            Screenshot appreciated, status bar should disappear. Am considering having navigation bar (at least on Android) disappear too when UI is hidden, since people have requested it.

                                            Tap margins seem excessively large

                                            Agreed, thinking of reducing the top/bottom/left/right fractions' defaults and adding a setting to change them with visual hint


                                            @LegitPancake Thanks as well for the feedback

                                            On iOS 14 I still have to set the font to like 350% on vertical in order for it to be readable

                                            I'm going to be looking into different defaults based on the device size in the future. Default size looks like this in the simulator for an iPad
                                            290f6308-a7dc-4b72-afbb-f6e153d4ad2c-image.png

                                            On that note, clicking "Only follows" makes the list infinitely scrolling

                                            Probably a server-side bug, I'll look into it

                                            Theme selection is still messed up on iPhone 8 iOS 14.

                                            Still looking into this, a staff member with the same phone/software does not have this problem.

                                            Double manga spreads (or just every other page) should be stitched together when turning to landscape orientation. If you have access to the Shonen Jump app, that would be my preferred way to do it.

                                            Spread mode in landscape is planned for both novels and manga. Just not super high priority

                                            Pinch-to-zoom is glitchy

                                            Yes it is. Will be improved

                                            Horizontal novel reading is almost unusable as you know so I don't even touch it.

                                            Will be working on the horizontal reader for the next build

                                            Lastly, I once again hope TTS will be considered in the future

                                            It might be considered in a future build.
