In this post we review what they are The best apps to read manga.
Before presenting our selection, it should be noted that not all apps for reading manga from your mobile are the same. Many of them work for both Android and iOS, but they all have their peculiarities, so they adapt better or worse to the needs of each user and each mobile device.
Amazon Kindle
Yes, no matter how much we all associate it solely with the world of books, Amazon Kindle It is also a very useful app for those who want to read manga on their phone or tablet.
Thanks to its interface optimized for mobile phones and tablets (both on iOS and Android), this application offers us an excellent manga reading experience. Some of its handy features include offline reading, night mode, and text style and size customization. Of course, much of the content is paid, although there is the option to try it free for 30 days.
bookwalker
It has to be said that bookwalker It's not just another application to download manga, as it also offers other content such as books or magazines. Most of the titles are free, although the most recent releases are usually only offered in paid mode.
The most interesting thing about this app is the presentation of its large catalogue, in the form of digital shelves, where each user can organize their collection according to their own tastes and preferences.
Comixology
The fact that Comixology Being an application that only offers non-paid content is not an obstacle for us to include it in our selection of the best apps for reading manga. The main reason is the quality of reading that it offers to fans of Japanese comics. And also to comic book fans in general, since its offer is very diverse.
This application has a very easy to use interface and a very practical system to organize all our readings. Without a doubt, highly recommended.
Crunchyroll
Perhaps the world's most popular app for reading manga. The truth is Crunchyroll always offers the latest titles, with content that is always updated. In principle, it is totally free, although it is worth trying its premium version, free of advertising and with a lot of extras.
Izneo
Another paid application, but one that offers very interesting advantages. Izneo is a French app, so its content abounds in the offer of European comics (or bande desinnée, as they call it in the French country). However, in its catalog we will also be able to find numerous manga.
Izneo offers different subscription plans. If we only want to read manga, it is not necessary to buy the complete package. In this case, the price to pay is $6,89 per month. Very convenient for big consumers of Japanese comics.

mangatoon is another free application that offers us a lot of manga content with a wide variety of genres and titles that are impossible to find in other apps. Among its most attractive aspects, it should be mentioned that it allows you to download all the titles to be able to enjoy them in offline mode.
For the more artists, Mangatoon also offers the possibility of uploading to the application and offering them to the fan community, which is very active by the way.
Handle Sleeve
The most expert in the world of the ninth art know that, in addition to manga, there is the manwha or South Korean comic, which also has its audience in Europe. Aware of this demand, the Spanish Jesús Guerra had the right idea to develop this app: Handle Sleeve.
Only part of the content is free (precisely the manga, which is what really interests those who are reading this post), although everything is optimized in HD quality and updated. A luxury.
A curiosity: in addition to the language, one of the main differences between manga and manwha is in the sense of reading. We all know that manga should be read from right to left, so the cover of the comic is at what we consider the end; instead, the manhwa reads exactly the same as any western comic or comic: from left to right.
webtoon
If we talk about comics, comics and manga, the name of webtoon It is a must reference. Its fan community is huge, as is its list of available titles. But the best thing about this application is that it is very easy to use, thanks to a simple and intuitive interface.
