      Android (Samsung). Have already tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling twice.

      If I go to the forums in a browser, my login and password work fine.

      With the android app, my login and password work for reading content. But if I use the forum link within the app, it prompts for login/password but these never work, and using the "lost login" prompt from here never generates an email that allows changing the password.

      Maybe the forum link within the app is pointing to a stale server instance?

        @Marius8 My previous reading log has been wiped out. I have no idea where I was on so many books. Both manga and light novels don't show any progress... I'm talking at least 20 current books I was in the middle of reading.

        As has been stated, there is no tracking read status on manga at all right now.

        All LN should have history back to early September right now. New reading of a LN in a browser on the main site does not track read history. But then in the browser, there has never been a way to see it normally, but it was always tracked before. Reading a LN in the app or in Crimson’s web app track status normally for everyone else. Are you sure your app is updated?

              What's the status on reading history and tracking, looks like Manga is still broken, won't even track new things I've read.

              This includes logging out, deleting and reinstalling the app, clearing the cache and storage. Multiple tests. Both on my Samsung tablet and phone.

              Kinda wish you guys just rolled back the upgrade instead of tuffing it out. Total mess

                  I noticed that the calendar isn't properly showing your follows for ebook releases though it does work properly for pre-pub parts.

                    @sorvani you can track reading progress in the web app, you just tooltip the chapters (hold down finger on chapter header if you're using a phone/tablet).

                    I can see my old reading progress but haven't been making any new progress. 😓

                      It appears that renting is not an option anymore.

                        @Altainia can you elaborate on this?

                        Did the rental screen not come up?
                        Did the screen come up, but it did not let you rent?
                        Did you click rent but it did not go through and still took your coins?

                        Any additional information would be helpful. I used a normal account and was able to get to the rental screen and it’s no issues. I also did rent the part and it worked as intended. So it worked for me.

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

                          @Altainia was it only one series you tried? Some series don't have renting as an option iirc

                            @Rahul-Balaggan I was going to report that I didn't get a rental screen, and that I had tried it with a few series just to be sure it wasn't me being unlucky picking a series that couldn't be rented, but I went ahead and tried it with a few more and... I may have just got unlucky in my initial few test series... Sorry.

                              All good, just glad it doesn’t have to be added to the list. Thank you

                                Hello,
                                None of my reading progress pre-maintenance has come back yet. I use the android app on my phone and tablet. I've logged out and back in, as well as uninstalled and reinstalled the app. It sounds like many people got their progress back by now. Is this just a matter of continuing to be patient?

                                  Hello,

                                  yes we are still actively working on getting all of the reading progress back. This will be days of work.

                                  We are starting with the latest data working backwards.

                                    Hi - just want to make sure I understand going forward as I am someone who has never used the app… So, from now on, only reading progress will be tracked in the app? Correct?

                                    I frequently read from my laptop (in a browser) as I only have a small screen on my older phone (even with tiny font still have to change pages about 3-4x/minute), so I will need to adjust and keep track in other ways…

                                      Yay! I finished reading the new Frontier Lord chapter, and it’s been shown as “read” in the app! Another thing appears to have been checked off the to-do list. :)

                                      Edit: Spoke too soon. The Rebuild World chapter is still shown as unread… :( Well, it’s some signs of progress, at least.

                                          A number of titles still have messed up titles for the Parts. Some of them have been fixed, but here are a few random ones that haven't;

                                          Grimgar Volume 18; all the part titles are "grimgar"

                                          Chivalry of a Failed Knight Volume 3; "Default Title(Short)"

                                          The Coppersmith's Bride Volume 3 (not sure if this change is intentional) ; "Coppersmith Ch 15" and then each part is the chapter number.

                                          Duchess in the Attic Volume 1; "Duchess in the Attic" (no part number)

                                            Not sure if this a site issue or a policy change, but: I live in Japan, and the site used to block me from reading Housekeeping Mage unless I used a VPN to access it from a US-based IP. Since the maintenance, the region blocking is gone and I can read the new Housekeeping Mage parts with no VPN.

                                            I... don't know why I'm reporting this, as it's been a positive change for my experience on the site.
