"As a massive manga fan, Panels is exactly what I was looking for. The Right-to-Left reading mode is seamless, and being able to customize my collections with custom covers makes my digital library feel like a real bookshelf. It is easily the most polished reader on iOS."

"The technical depth here is incredible. I host my own Komga server, and Panels connects to it via OPDS without a hitch. The cross-device sync allows me to start a comic on my Mac and finish it on my iPad during my commute. It is the ultimate tool for serious collectors."
