Read & Convert
Comics on iPhone
Your complete comic companion. Read CBR, CBZ, and PDF files directly, convert archives to PDF or CBZ, send them to your e-reader, and manage your entire collection. All offline.
ComicFlow is a comic reader, format converter, and library manager for iPhone and iPad, priced at $2.99 as a one-time purchase with no subscriptions or ads. It reads CBR, CBZ, RAR, ZIP, and PDF files directly with a native comic reader, requiring no format conversion before you start reading. The app offers paged and vertical scroll reading modes, three page layouts (single, double spread, automatic), and full right-to-left manga support with a mirrored page scrubber. A built-in converter exports comic archives to PDF at three quality levels (High, Medium, Low) or to CBZ, with batch conversion for multiple files at once. The full library manager includes custom collections, star ratings, tags, notes, page bookmarks, and automatic reading progress tracking. ComicFlow Pro is an optional one-time purchase of $6.99 (not a subscription) that adds EPUB export to e-readers with device profiles for Kobo, Boox, reMarkable, and PocketBook plus e-ink image optimization, Face ID-locked private collections (using Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode), and saved reader presets for manga, western, and webtoon reading styles. Kindle does not read sideloaded EPUB directly, so the app directs Kindle users to a Calibre conversion route. ComicFlow supports eight languages (English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese), works fully offline with no internet connection needed for core functionality, and includes optional iCloud sync for reading progress, bookmarks, and ratings across devices. Published by Applestan, an independent iOS development studio based in the Netherlands.
