Flows - Comic and Manga Reader

Flows is a comic, manga and webtoon reader for Android that reads your own files, one panel at a time or as one long scroll. PANEL BY PANEL
Flows finds the panels on each page for you, then zooms to one at a time and moves through them in reading order. It handles the layouts simple readers get wrong: small panels laid over a full page picture, pictures drawn across two pages, and panels that bleed into each other. Each panel is widened to take in any speech balloon that crosses its edge. Double tap any panel to zoom straight to it. Everything runs on your device, and nothing is uploaded.

YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR WAY
Home shows the books you are reading and the folders you pin. Folders can hold folders, and show as a fanned stack, a mosaic, a folder with a cover or book spines. Flows can also show the folders your comics are in and your servers' libraries. Every book keeps its place, down to the panel.

WEBTOONS AND CONTINUOUS SCROLL
Webtoons and other vertical strips open as one continuous scroll, the way they are drawn, and reopen at the exact spot you stopped. Pinch to zoom in on a detail. Any comic or manga can be read as a scroll too, for one book or for all of them.

READ ALOUD
Flows can read the lettering on the page out loud in your phone's own voice, panel by panel, for readers who find small lettering hard to read. Free, and it runs on your device.

BUILT FOR TABLETS
Held sideways, Flows shows facing pages side by side, the way a printed comic falls open. A picture drawn across both pages is read as one. Held upright, a wide double page can be split in two.

READS YOUR FILES
• CBZ, CBR, CB7 and CBT comic archives
• PDF and EPUB
Open them from your device, or straight from another app with Open with or Share. No account, and no library to upload into someone else's cloud.

TURN PAGES YOUR WAY
Tap, swipe, use the volume keys, or a keyboard or Bluetooth page turner. Right to left reading is supported properly, panel order included, so manga reads the way it should. Four panel manga can be read down each column instead of across the page.

EVERY SETTING WHERE YOU READ
Brightness, night reading, page layout, page turning and panel mode are all in the reader menu, in the same groups as Settings, and each book can keep its own choices. Settings can be searched, and Flows speaks 13 languages.
