  • klutter

    Discontinued A streaming client for the Komga self-hosted comics/manga/BD server targeting Android/iOS written in Dart/Flutter (by frameset)

  • But if you want komga aware apps that sync the read progress back to the server, there is Klutter (it’s still in early development, so it’s missing features like changing the reading direction for manga), that’s purpose built for Komga, kind of like the mobile version of the web client. You can find the TestFlight link in Komga’a discord!

  • app

    Repository to host app releases, issues, and feature requests for Paperback (by Paperback-iOS)

  • There is also Paperback which is a general purpose manga/comic reader, that has an extension for Komga. I never quite managed to make it work for me, I often get “could not load page” errors while reading comic volumes, but YMMV. You can also find the TestFlight in their discord, or install the app with AltStore. It also currently only syncs read progress per book, not per page, so for multi chapter volumes it takes a while to mark it as read on the server.

  • SurveyJS
