User Reviews

Users praise the app for its large, frequently updated catalog, no ads, and generally organized, mobile-friendly access. However, recurring pain points include subscription/paywall friction (no in-app signup; backlog access via website), login verification problems, frequent bugs and stability issues, and reading UI flaws (missing back button, 2-page spread issues, text cutoffs). These recurring themes point to a strong content offering hampered by payment friction, account reliability, and inconsistent reading/navigation experiences.

Pros

Large and regularly updated catalog of novels and manga
No ads in the app
Well-organized UI that makes content easy to find
Strong mobile access and keeping up-to-date with the latest JNC content

Cons

In-app subscription/purchase friction: no in-app subscription option and backlog content often behind paywalls; must use the website for subscribing
Login and account verification issues: emails not arriving, login screen failures, and accounts unable to log in
Frequent bugs and instability: crashes, updates causing issues, and loss of reading history
Reading/navigation interface problems: missing back button, 2-page spreads not joined, text cut off, and single-page reading mode

This app is horrible. Almost unusable. Totally useless to join novel they just ask for money without providing anything

For the little I used the app it worked fine. What drove me to delete the app was the few manga I was interested in were all paid. Average at $8 a piece. So im good, im not gonna spend money on another service with a smaller selection subscribing or buying.
