Same. I refuse to own anything Apple unless it's a gift then I'll sell it 2 months later after showing them I used it.

looks nice, thou gotta try it out for myself, not that im really in need of this since i prefer the way it is, thou it also kinda surprised me that there was no apps for mangaupdates

Thank you for making an app!

» Tiffyyii on February 11th, 2013, 9:24pm

I just downloaded the app, but whenever I try to login, an error pops up saying, " Loaded an unprocessable response (200) with content type 'application/json'."

Can anyone help me with this problem? :/

thread

» qazzy on February 11th, 2013, 10:33pm

Yeah I know about this error and I just haven't had time to get around to it. Even thought it says "error" it doesn't actually error it does log you in and you will only see it when you very first log in. When you open the app again it keeps you logged in.

thread

» aznchis3l on February 12th, 2013, 9:56am

I also get the log in error message. It still doesn't log me in after I reopen the app after closing it. Even closed the app from the multitasking.

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 10:07am

Are you sure you are "log out" I noticed another bug where it will say log in even if you are logged in. Can you access your lists or is it pushing you to the log in page each time? Try logging in then when the error message shows just hit ok then try to go to your lists again.

I've tracked the error down and it was due to error on the website I've told Manick and when he fixes it the error will go away.

Awesome <3
I wish it was also available for the iTouch as well.

thread

» eZaCx on February 11th, 2013, 10:32pm

It can be used on any iOS device, including iPads, however it will be sized to the iPhone resolution. Qazzy is thinking about making a tablet version later on. He is currently working on an Android app.

thread

» scorpian8867 on February 11th, 2013, 10:07pm

All right, we'll start the pool at $10 per square. I say at least three one-star reviews that criticize the app for not offering downloads by the end of the week.

I've been waiting for this.

Does it work on Nokia mobile phone?
I also wanted a mobile version of MU. cool

thread

» qazzy on February 11th, 2013, 11:18pm

Only on iOS and Android when I finish it. If you are talking about the Nokia smart phone that has Windows Phone on it, then that will be a lot later.

AHHHHHHHHHHHI'M SO HAPPY.
So much data everytime I look up the site... Thank you thank you thank you!

thread

» Phosphatide on February 12th, 2013, 12:09am

Can't wait until I get a notification from the app to see if that part works just as well as the rest of the app.

Besides the funny login bug that technically doesn't exist. Great work you guys; I got giddy watching my lists update on my computer without actually using the computer itself.

thread

» eZaCx on February 12th, 2013, 12:12am

Qazzy is aware of the issue and will be fixing it soon.

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 6:12am

I'm still working on getting notifications to work.

So cool! Never thought there'd be an app for this site. smile Can't wait for Android version~

Haha downloaded it as soon as I saw the app sign XD
Awesome stuff. Great work!

ABOUT TIME!?! smile

thread

» kennyqua on February 12th, 2013, 3:11am

Nice, I love the idea! biggrin
Got to admit though... It's hard to keep an overview of all the releases when it isn't colour coded, and with an unsortable reading list of almost 600 series, well...
The fact that I can search manga from the app and add them to my lists, however, is awesome!
Have you thought about implementing the rating system in your app?

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 6:09am

Yes I plan to add that but the app would never get released if I constantly add new stuff so we gotta start at the essentials first then we can add the little extra stuff such as the colored releases, filtering your search, ratings, etc.

is there an android version?

Qazzy is working on it.

Can I ask you a question?

Who are you, and why do you keep answering questions not aimed at you?


On the actual topic, nice to see this launch. I'm hoping the Android version gets out soon. Remember to let me know if you want help testing it out. My Galaxy S III has Jelly Bean on it and should be able to tackle anything you throw at it.

thread

» Onitenshu on February 13th, 2013, 8:31am

I have the same phone, only a dual core sprint model. I would love to test the app out if you are looking for testers.

Awesome!!! Now I can check the release directly without going to the browser biggrin
Thanks!!! Keep making those amazing updates ahaha biggrin

Abosolutely perfect! I love how you only see the not caught up ones cause my list is so long!!

thread

» Trimutius on February 12th, 2013, 5:20pm

Erm... Downloaded to try it out...
But cannot login...

I receive:

Error

Loaded an unprocessable response (200) with content type 'application/json'

This app needs tweeking...
Does it have some problem with me having 11 lists? (I have 6 custom lists)
Or I don't know...

Closing and opening app and stuff like that doesn't help... sad

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 5:55pm

The issue is known and will be fixed when Manick updates the website. After you get the error message it really does log you in so just go to your lists again and you will see them.

thread

» follybaby on February 12th, 2013, 5:34pm

Android app, Android app, Android app! smile Can't wait. I reeeaallllyyy want it!

thread

» Trimutius on February 12th, 2013, 6:24pm

Now a second question...
Why it doesn't allow me to increase chapters past the releases available? For example some releases are posted late (or never posted because not accepted by policies of mangaupdates) or some of the mangas I read not in English (I know Russian as well and rarely Russian translators are actually faster then English (though most of the time it is a double translation from English but that is not the point))

P.S. Just see my "Read other" list for examples

P.P.S. When I say posted late I mean that I do submit update request (if I don't need to create new scanlator) but well as people are generally may be busy it can take some time before admin approves it, but I want to have my counter already be updated...

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 9:41pm

Hmm I didn't consider that use case when reading a series that doesn't get updated on here. I'll add that in the next version since it's an easy update.

thread

» lhtbinh1909 on February 12th, 2013, 7:18pm

android app please, a tablet version would be great biggrin

thread

» qazzy on February 12th, 2013, 9:38pm

Manick has updated the website. The log in bug as now been fixed. Now let's hope push notifications work too since he forgot to update some stuff on that. Guess I'll need to start working some more on the Android app now. Been busy catching up on some manga.

thread

» Freecss on February 13th, 2013, 11:20am

I can't seem to log in through the app. Although I'm logging in through the browser fine.
Just an error message of 'Password was Invalid'.

thread

» qazzy on February 13th, 2013, 2:59pm

That's shouldn't happen. Are you still experiencing it? No one else has mentioned this issue.

thread

» Jeli on February 23rd, 2013, 7:20pm

The username part is case sensitive, so maybe that's a problem. I had to capitalize the first letter of my username too.

thread

» Enya on February 13th, 2013, 12:36pm

It would be great to get a notification if a new manga chapter in your reading list is added smile

thread

» qazzy on February 13th, 2013, 2:58pm

It's supposed to do that but I'm still working out the bug with it.

thread

» eurofag on February 13th, 2013, 1:47pm

On what basis are the entries in my reading list ordered?

The default (by unread releases)

Until there is an Android version that little space on the right just makes voting take 2 seconds longer.

Still setting up the architecture of it. I think I have log in done.

thread

» Damnedman on February 23rd, 2013, 4:32pm

Haven't tried the app, but judging by this thread, could the app be encoding characters in UTF-8 instead of the default Windows-1252? Because I have encountered the same issue for this manga here and changing the character encoding to UTF-8 did fix the problem.

thread

» mirahsan2 on February 23rd, 2013, 8:51pm

I can't check it out since I only have an Android phone. Does the app have notifications when a series is updated?
