Used to be working smoothly but now almost half of the time, the ads don't work. Screen turns black when I try to see the ad and then I have to close the app and reopen it in order to get a new ad and even then the ad still doesn't work. It's been doing this for months and I'm not sure how to fix it. I dont have any adblockers that would be causing this either. Very frustrating
Reviews for MangaToon: Comic & Manga
← Back to MangaToon: Comic & MangaI've about had it with this app. Brought coins to read the webtoon. Used the coin purchased to read the webtoon, then when I want to go back and reread the comic that I purchased. I have to unlock and pay AGAIN?! What. Doesnt make sense. Why would you make your customer pay more than once for something they already brought! This is clearly stealing the reader money.
Used to like it until the change. The ads, that were nothing like the games they advertised, were acceptable because I got the points to read terribly translated manga for free. They took away the points system. Other apps are still free and they're well translated. Way to shoot yourself in the foot, developers. The web is vast and you're not the only option. Uninstalling.
good stories. sometimes they dont make sense. There was a great reading point system for a little bit. If you spent a certain amount of time in the app or reading you got points that saved up and didn't expire like the coupons (which I think is sad that they expire). However it seems to have stopped which is really upsetting to me. I enjoy the comics and the point system was a perfect way for me to read them.
I was enjoying it until it stole my money. I clicked on the six dollar option for buying coins in their store and that was what I thought I was paying for. When I looked at my bank however it said there was a $ 20 hold. I thought it was strange, but figured they had made the hold be for more than the actual amount bought as some things will do. No. I go back late to find that they had taken the 20 dollars out of my account despite the fact that was NOT what I had clicked on to buy. Not happy rn.
I love this app. One thing though... I really wish the comics could be translated into Japanese and Korean, I'm very surprised that's not an option considering the amount of people in the comments wanting the comics to be in those languages since English is not their first language and they have trouble understanding. I hope Japanese and Korean can be added to the list, and when they are I will be one of the first to volunteer to translate!😊
I am absolutely irritated by the ads. I understand that you need to pay translators and authors, but still... Couldn't there be a better way to go about this? Despite this con, I do think the comics here are waaayy better than most. Gotta be honest, this app would get waaayy better reviews if there wasn't this inconvienice. Like for real, look at the app Webtoons, their content is free!!! I that Webtoon is free, but I also love the comics in manga toon more! DANG IT JUST MAKE IT AN ACTUAL FREE APP!!! Please take this into consideration.
I was having a good time reading. I made it to episode 30 of Biting the Tiger, but all of a sudden, my reading coupons stopped working. When I brought this up to support, they responded once, and when I explained it didn't help, they didn't respond again, and it's been 3 days by now. This is disappointing. I'm not buying even more coins or watching ads to read chapters I should be allowed to read anyways. What was the point of getting coins and coupons by spending money if I can't use them?
It's not so much that it's a bad app, has a lot of independent work. Doesn't have any popular titles or anime titles (too my knowledge). The issue I have is, I downloaded the app not too long ago and I recieved an email saying someone tried to sign in my account from czechia in the czech republic. I don't know if there's any correlation but when I looked further into it, google said it was connected to when I made an account with these guys. Other than that it's a good app but I think you guys need better security.
5 stars cause I'm enjoying it overall, but please fix the ads. Half of them I can't close out of and I have to close out the app entirely, which causes problems when I'm trying to "borrow" episodes. I just had to watch 5 ads and restart the app 5 times just to read one episode. I also can't switch between apps without it throwing up an ad that I can't close out of. Otherwise, I really like the app lol
I absolutely love this app. It's easy to use and has many categories of manga to choose from. Udpate: from 5 to 3 stars, still love it but it's gone a bit downhill. Now there's ads after each episode, The watch ads to unlock is no longer unlimited, it's only up to 8 a day? Update 2: 3 to 5 stars. Despite some changes I'm not happy with, it's easier to use and you get more episodes a day than other similar apps I've tried. THIS ONE IS STILL MY FAVORITE!
The app is great when you have "points" to read but they have such a large selection to read from and give out very little amount of "points" to be able to read. You can also spend money to buy coins that come with points as well but it's still not enough if you like to read a lot or are trying to catch up and then to the point of the coins they are only used for "tip battles" or trying to get a "crazy update" for a particular series which is pretty useless when you don't have enough points
First of all, the comics are outstanding. Not even webtoon has these amazing comics, and you even get like 20 episodes free each day (more if you do more things), but the thing that ruins it all is not only does this app go on a black screen sometimes when your watching ads, and it crashes, but it also takes away your free ad, and it doesn't save your comics somewhere like you can't just get on, and tap your comic. I think the developers really need to do something about the app crashes..
I feel like I would rate higher, because I do really like the app. My only problem is that a lot of the times, the button to watch the ad for the next episode is greyed out entirely, so I cant even click on it. I'm totally fine with watching ads for the episodes, because I understand the content creators need to be paid, and that's all fine. But I just wish I could actually watch the ads to get the content. Lol.
The App was great, but the locked episodes are annoying. And the problem that I end up facing now is loading issues. Based on my wifi connection, the loading just keeps going forever and the connection ended up in failure. Another reason is that I thought it was fixed, but the loading can't be done and it keeps it forever. I reporting this issue because it takes a lot of my time no matter what that I have to get to where I want to read.
I love the stories but the English translations could be better, and it sucks when I get to the 50th episode and I have to purchase coins to see more. If it was more like webtoons where the episodes become free after a certain point (1 episode per week maybe) I would give this 5 stars. I just don't have the money to finish the stories I like and it is quite pricey to begin with. Other than that I do like this app.
The app is great for reading comics but can be really annoying if you are new to it. What is wrong with the app is that it is almost impossible to really get into a comic that has been going on for a while. The system they use to read comics is that the first 10-20 episodes are free but then you have to use coupons to unlock the rest which can be hard since the only way you can get coupons is buying them with real money or checking everyday, which gets you only 1 extra coupon with a due date.
It's been almost 2 years since I downloaded the app. At first the app was AMAZING, but as the app grew, one change made me lose interest in read the mangas. It was the coupons. I understand that they need to pay the translators and creator, but there's no balance. It's hard to keep up with the manga you love and it's easy to lose interest. You can beign mangas, but what's the point if you can even read them.
Well for starters my review was removed where I talked about how buggy the app was. I finally got a response but it was basically "oh yeah ads don't always work for comics-" and I said "it's not about the comic ads. The ads to get points doesn't work either." Not only do they not work but occasionally you get random ads after exiting a book. Those don't work either. Customer service is practically non existent here. The problems in the feedback all have to do with alternative payment methods.
Used to be good. I can understand the Ads added later to the main screen upon first clicking the app, but now every time I try to read something, it pops up a redirect into my browser that I have to quickly close before it finishes loading. Sometimes I do not click anything. Only app that does this. I am not risking my device even for a comic I can't find anywhere else to read.
