ComicDrive: CBZ & CBR Reader

ComicDrive — The Modern Comic Book & Manga Reader for Android

Your comics, wherever you keep them. ComicDrive reads CBZ, CBR and PDF from your phone, your cloud folders, your NAS and your comic server. Free, with every feature included — no ads, no subscription, no account, no data collected.

🔍 PANEL BY PANEL
• Tap Panels in the reader and the view glides from panel to panel, zoomed right in
• Read a full comic page on a phone screen, one panel at a time
• Panels are found on your device, nothing is uploaded
• Set the pace, the zoom and how much the rest of the page is dimmed

📂 READ FROM ANYWHERE
• Local storage and SD card
• Cloud folders through Android's storage framework — Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive and more
• Network shares over SMB, FTP and SFTP — read straight from your NAS
• OPDS catalogs: Komga, Kavita, Calibre-Web — stream page by page without downloading
• Progress on comics from Komga and Kavita is sent back to your server
• Catalogs behind Cloudflare Access or a proxy that needs custom request headers
Files stream from the source and are cached on your device for smooth reading.

🇯🇵 MADE FOR MANGA
• Right-to-left reading direction
• Webtoon mode with seamless vertical scrolling
• Double-page spreads on tablets and foldables, with a one-page shift when spreads pair up wrong
• Reader settings can be overridden per comic

⚡ SMART READING
• Automatic reading progress — pick up right where you left off
• The last page offers the next issue of the series
• Turn pages while zoomed in: the next page keeps the zoom
• Pinch and double-tap zoom, tap zones and volume-button page turns
• A slideshow that turns the pages for you
• Automatic margin cropping for scanned pages
• Bookmarks with notes and colors

📖 SUPPORTED FORMATS
CBZ, CBR, CB7 and CBT comic archives plus PDF. Plain ZIP and RAR files work too, and so do comics packed as archives inside an archive.

💛 FREE FOR EVERYONE
Every feature is included for everyone. The optional supporter purchase unlocks nothing: it removes a notice and funds development. No advertising, now or in the future.

🌍 Available in 13 languages. Made in Germany, with a passion for comics and manga.
