Comikey - Manga & Webcomics

The online website says to download the app to unlock thousands of free chapters , but once you download they say you still need to buy keys to read. Nothing wrong with monetization but please don’t try to mislead

This company, like a few others, are extorting Western readers by taking full chapters of stories, and chopping them up into 3 or 4 tiny slivers of a chapter. They then make you pay for each sliver of a chapter as if it were a full one. Basically you end up paying quadruple the amount for a single chapter compared to if you were buying the original work. It’s a scam designed to dupe Western readers who are usually unaware that the chapters are falsely labeled and named. It’s all about extorting money to this company.

App is fine but comickey is kind of trash, once the new manga chapter comes a lot of time the site is down “error 500” up until you have to use currency to buy the chapters and then the site is magically working again

Good app, but once you realize they cut chapters short to double the purchase rate. Binging multiple reads becomes not worth the hassle. Pick 1 book call it good.

I typically like free sites but I also support creators where I can. I can understand why they use the key system to monetize, but honestly I just hate it. Especially for the features when compared with free alternatives.

Its a nice app but the only thing i dont like about it is that my “continue reading” is always crowded and i cant delete stories Ive dropped. I hope they will update it so we can delete stories that we dont like or have dropped🫠

Servers are always down when I want to read something

Not only that, they parse chapters out very cheaply, splitting them up into multiple sections to overcharge you for access to each ‘chapter’ this is a poor business

Generally works, but you have to restart it often, sometimes every chapter. Bugs include chapters being blank or not allowing you to advance. So, you pay and read Chapter 4, pay to read Chapter 5, and then get stuck in a loop reading Chapter 4. The app will start chapter 5, but immediately bounce you back to Chapter 4. You can break the cycle by killing the app and restarting it, but you have to do this for almost every chapter. That said, it otherwise works okay, and the content is good.

I installed this app excepting a similar experience as other good manga apps, (I.e Shonen jump) and everything fell short, from a buggy reader and taking away over 28$ worth of chapters I had bought after it urged me to sign in, I recommend no one to ever install this useless app
