For Android and iPad, discover the best digital bookstores and their applications to read comics, comics and manga on the go.
Making a collection of manga or a series of comics looks nice on the shelves, but it’s not very practical to read on the go or to take with you on vacation. Luckily, thanks to our trusty digital companions – tablets – the library of your dreams fits in the palm of your hand. Here is our selection of the 5 best applications to enjoy your graphic stories wherever you are.
BD comics by izneo
BD comics by izneo is a digital platform associated with a free mobile application which has a catalog of more than 40,000 titles. The interface is clear and the search is intuitive thanks to the different categories available.
The reader will be able to efficiently manage their favorites and their digital library, and have very practical reading options. Resumption of current reading, different display modes, offline reading or even HD are on the program. To access the works, you can take out a subscription or purchase individual digital versions.
MANGA Plus by SHUEISHA
Dedicated entirely to Japanese comics, MANGA Plus by SHUEISHA is a free digital platform that gives you access to the latest manga from the publisher SHUEISHA, released simultaneously in Japan. The catalog offered is rich and varied, and the mangas are translated into different languages (mainly English, but also French, Spanish, etc.).
The platform gives you free access to 3 chapters of a series (at the beginning and at the end), allowing you to discover new mangas. Subscribers to the Max service will be able to draw from the library of 17,000 chapters and without advertising.
Mangas.io
Launched in 2020, Mangas.io is a manga platform in digital format whose catalog is around 250 series, or several thousand titles, including webtoons, Manhwa, Seinens, Shōnens or Shōjos, and even creations originals.
Some titles are in Simultrad, allowing you to discover all the new chapters of your favorite manga when they come out in Asia. You can take advantage of the entire catalog during the 7-day trial, then you will need to take out a subscription if you like the platform.
WebToon
WebToon is a free service (with non-invasive advertising) which gives you access to an impressive library of webtoons, that is to say manga, comics and comics in vertical format, suitable for portable reading on smartphones and tablets.
Readers will be able to enjoy essential reading options like resuming current reading, favorites, series recommendations based on previous readings, etc. But what sets WebToon apart from other applications is its Canvas service which allows authors and artists to publish their own content and thus get an honest and impartial opinion from the community.
To death
On the same principle as WebToon, Tappytoon offers manga, manhwa, comics and webcomics in vertical format (almost free). But where Tappytoon differs is that not all content is free. Although many chapters of your favorite reads are free, others require unlocking with a required number of points.
These latter, also called Tokens, can be earned by watching advertisements or purchased directly in the store. In the library you will find different categories to find readings if you lack inspiration, and you can subscribe to be alerted when a new episode goes live.
