If you want to read manga on your mobile phone, which manga reader app will you use?
For me, not sure really. I'm still searching for the best.
You guys can have a try and give advice to me.
So what about you? Which manga reader do you use?

Assuming you're on android.
For offline reading, I use Comics Reader (kervala):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.kervala.comics reader
It has some limitations such as not saving the place where you were when you choose another comic to read, but it's very light and fast, very smooth transitions from page to page and all that.
I've also tried Sipmle comic viewer:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eddysoft.com icviewer
This one does save the place where you were even when you choose another comic. It is heavier, though, and the transitions are not as smooth as in the previous one.
For online reading, the best for me is Manga Rock, hands down:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nab.khanhluon gthanh.mangarock
It has many sources, such as batoto, mangafox and mangahere, the chapters load fast, and you can even download chapters for offline reading. It also has a nice search engine and gives you suggestions for manga to read, based on what you've read recently. You can choose what kind of manga you don't want to see as well. Give it a shot.
All the ones I suggested are free. Manga Rock free version only lets you keep like 1 or 2 chapters downloaded for offline reading, though. But it's still worth it, in my opinion.

I think mangaflip is the one of best manga reader app.
It is simple but has many function that can read manga easy and compy.
For example,
reading direction(right to left, left to right, up and down like webtoon),
popular 100 manga list,
download manga content to your phone - read manga when you are offline,
application is faster than any other manga reader and stable,
and support filter and search function.
I know those functions are not only just mangaflip has, but the best thing is mangaflip getting better.
If you guys wants to use mangaflip, search "MANGAFLIP" on google play store or amazon.
Below is a URL

Tachiyomi is by far, my favorite app for reading. I used to use Manga Watcher, but the author stopped working on it. Tachiyomi is open source. It isn't on the App store, you can find it on F-Droid or download it manually, though (F-Droid is an app that allows you to get 3rd party, open-source apps that update quickly from Github).
https://github.com/inorichi/tachiyomi
In the readme section, you can download the stable or beta version manually, or just use F-Droid (which updates on it's own).
Add https://fdroid.j2ghz.com/repo as repo to F-Droid.
Install Tachiyomi from F-Droid.
It's a little more work to set up, but from what I tried of all the others, it is the best choice for me. Has backups, MAL sync, categories, no ads, and a nice clear UI.

i use pocket manga 1.1.6 its quite straight forward for online reading since its not connected to any 3rd party servers like mangarock its directly connected to source usually its not really big deal you can read manga regardless of the status of the 3rd party servers, that's a plus for me but too bad its not really good for downloading because a lot of the time there are damaged pages so while downloading them the app just doesn't try again to download a certain page so it just gets stuck so for downloading i use mangarock but adds are quite annoying specially that black bar on bottom that takes quite the space, but the downloading on mangarock is quite fast

Seconded. I use Manga Rock vividly, the complete/full version. It's very convenient and easy to use. Doesn't have alot of customization options however except a few functionality stuff such as using volume Up/Down for Forward/Backward when scrolling through pages.
