Great for comics and manga
This is the only app I’ve found that can handle manga PDFs with right-side binding properly. But the minimal UI and nice two-page spread support make it great for American comics too. Switching from GoodReader, for comics at least.
United StatesNeeds better support for iPad Pro
Here are my main grievances with the app as of May 2021: 1. It CANNOT be used in Split View on the iPad Pro in any way. Want to have a dedicated Dictionary app on 1/4 of the screen while iBunkoHD takes the other 3/4 of the screen? Too bad, iBunkoHD will simply cut off 1/4 of the pages you are trying to read. 2. No touchpad support: if you use the Magic Keyboard and want to use the trackpad cursor to select a word or sentence - too bad, the only thing it can do is to flip the pages, you have to use your figure to touch the screen to select anything. 3. No “Copy” option in the context (long press/double click) menu: this one is the absolute worst for any language learner. If you have a word highlighted, you can’t just choose a “Copy” open so you can paste it into another dictionary app. Oh no, you have to click “more option” (forget exactly how it’s called), and then a slow and unresponsive pop-up appears covering the entire screen, and in the center you can find “copy” among some of the other options. If you click it, it’s as if nothing happened, and maybe the word is copied after a few seconds., I could have forgiven all the other misses, but I do not understand the (lack of) logic of a text reader making it so tedious to just copy a word. It is very obvious that, despite calling this an “HD” version that cost extra, the developer spent minimal efforts and just took the the iPhone version and increased the resolution (and deliberately make the iPhone version not work on the big screen) and hasn’t been keeping this app updated to the latest iPad models and iPadOS firmware. It should not be charging money at the current state but rather taken off the store until it has been improved. And I just checked the update history, besides bug fixes it hasn’t received a major update or overhaul in years. I have resigned to having wasted my money. Do not make the same mistake I did.
United States使えない…
ダウンロードした本がアプリの起動の度に消え、再ダウンロードの表示が出る。 問い合わせをしたが、トラブルの解決に熱意が感じられずやむなく削除した。お金をドブに捨てました。
United StatesGreat PDF Reader for Scanned Books
Pros: Page curl animation. Perfectly works with various cloud drives such as FTP, WebDAV, SMB, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. Nice design of book shelfs (it is same as those in iBooks, though) Cons: Confusing layout or option menu. There are still Japanese only menu or features that may be not good to English users’ experience. It might be better if there are any manuals or explanations about them in English.
