Comments on Kuro Reader+ for Android

★★★★★ Josh · Nov 8, 2024
JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! Could really use Google Drive linking, I would buy the pro version for that alone. Cover for Windows does that, and it's a dream for those of us who store comics in the cloud.
★★★★★ April · Oct 24, 2024
I use kuro reader exclusively for reading jp language manga downloaded to my phone. It's a fantastic lightweight app!
★★★★★ Chesak Shira · Mar 6, 2026
I was come across all kinds of comic reader it is by far the best one in fact love it I can adjust it as I want. I have yet to explore +pro (and please add epub too I also want to read LN)
★★☆☆☆ Handers The · Nov 24, 2024
The UI itself is very clean, I really like it. But for some reason it can't display some .avif images in .7z archive. Some can but some just displayed the cover/thumbnail the rest are just "try again" that won't display the images. The rest don't even have cover/thumbnail displayed.
★★☆☆☆ J D (Stitch) · Oct 8, 2025
Almost as good as the old Comic Rack, but the sorting needs improvement. I like the view by series, but it does not sort the series volume.
★☆☆☆☆ Nubbs · Dec 7, 2024
Pretty sure they scammed me. Bought Kuro Reader Pro which they removed off Google Play Store in place of Kuro Reader+ Pro requiring me to rebuy. Don't mind paying to support devs, but that's scummy.
★★☆☆☆ Michelle Revtai · Dec 27, 2025
Hi, I'm a bit confused. I purchased the pro version of this app quite a while ago, but recently got a new phone, and now it's asking me to buy the pro version again? I don't remember needing to make multiple purchases for different devices. :(
