MobileMD - Kodular MangaDex Client

MOVED

What is the name of your app?

Describe your app:

MoblieMD is an app where you can read comics and manga from MangaDex without using a browser. Its lighter than Tachiyomi in terms of app size (22.14MB vs 6MB)

Current features:

  • Read manga (Both long-strip and page layouts are supported)
  • Read manga in 8 different languages (Depends on availability)
  • View basic manga information
  • View comments (through chrome custom tabs)

Coming soon:

  • Manga ratings and basic stats
  • Downloadable chapters
  • Search function (Depends whether I can scrap the site as the official API is very limited)
  • Export/Import options for manga list
  • More reader settings
  • Better loading screens that load the entire chapter before dismissing loading screen
  • Fixes to 503 errors when the manga list reach a certain amount
  • Better chapter sorting
  • Checkmark for read chapters

Limitations:

  • Reader title cannot be hidden as Kodular does not support overlapping components
  • Page view layout is made with view pager and lots of compromises made
  • MangaDex API is very limited (No genres, search, top lists, etc…)
  • Had a hard time trying to show titlebar icons and add option menu items at the same time
  • Dynamic images does not have any events like on image loaded making it impossible for me to know whether all the images loaded successfully
  • App font not consistent because not all kodular components with text support typeface import

  • Content warning genres are now highlighted in red
