iComic - Panels Comic Reader for iPhone

About iComic: a local comic reader

iComic is a reader designed for people who keep DRM-free comics on their device. It focuses on offline use and doesn’t rely on external image servers, so you can build and browse a personal collection without needing an internet connection.

Reading experience and page controls

• Realistic page-turn animation for a more natural reading feel, especially useful for right-to-left formats like manga.
• Automatic detection of horizontal vs. vertical pages so the app can prioritize the correct layout.
• Manual alignment tools (a “page panning” control) let you fine-tune any misaligned pages for cleaner viewing.

Getting comics into the app

You can import files using several convenient transfer methods:

• Wi‑Fi transfer (import over a local network)
• AirDrop transfer (quick sharing between Apple devices)
• iTunes transfer (file sync via desktop)

The app also supports organizing imported files into a personal library and offers a private folder where sensitive or personal comics can be kept hidden from the main collection.

Paid plans and extra capabilities

iComic provides premium options that expand functionality:

• Lifetime membership: one-time purchase that permanently removes ads and unlocks premium tools.
• Annual “Grand” membership: adds features such as Baidu.com downloads, saving custom reading modes, in-app image editing, and an attempt to open PDFs that use the same password throughout.
• Limited-time promotions: occasional discounts (for example, steep reductions on the lifetime pass) may be offered.

Both paid routes are intended to grant long-term access to the app’s premium feature set; check the current plan details before purchase for exact terms.

Support, privacy and legal

If you run into problems or need help, the developer can be reached by email or via WeChat. The app’s terms of use and privacy policy are available through the links provided inside the app and on its listing page.

Alternative to consider

If you’re also interested in original fiction and serialized stories rather than local image-based comics, Wattpad — Read & Write Stories is a popular option that focuses on user-submitted writing and community features.
