For Apple Vision Pro · v1.0

A reader for your comics & manga.

The Vision Pro replaced my computer for most things, and I fell behind on the manga I was reading. So I built the reader I actually wanted. It's focused on function, in the spirit of ComicRack, the kind of thing I'd use on a desktop. Three reading modes, your files stay yours, free with optional support.

v1.0 · CBZ / CBR / PDF · Free

Comic Vision's all-series view, a grid of every series in the library.
What it is

A library, three ways to read, your files.

01 · LIBRARY

A library you control.

Point at a folder of CBZ, CBR, or PDF. Your covers come in and your filenames carry through. A naming-conventions wizard helps fill in the gaps (series, volume, year) based on your personal file structure.

02 · READING

Three ways to read.

Horizontal page scroll. Vertical webtoon scroll. A flat reader with 3D page curl. Right-to-left manga, naturally.

03 · LOCAL

Yours, on disk.

Your files stay where you put them, on your device. Nothing to sign into. It opens what you already have, then gets out of the way.

Comic Vision's all-series view, a grid of every series in the library.
A single series open in Comic Vision, showing every volume in the run.
Library

A library, in covers.

Point Comic Vision at the folders you already keep. Covers come in, your filenames carry through, and any ComicInfo.xml already in your files is read on import. You stay in charge of your metadata. Browse every series at a glance, then drop into one for the full run.

  • All series at a glance
  • Drill into a single run
  • Series, volume, publisher
  • Characters, creators, tags
  • ComicInfo.xml read on import
Reading

One reader, three ways to read.

Comic Vision in horizontal reading mode with toggleable UI controls visible over a comic page.

01 · HORIZONTAL

Horizontal, snap to spreads.

A horizontal scroll that snaps to single pages or double-page spreads. Right-to-left when the volume calls for it.

  • Full-bleed pages
  • Single & double-page spreads
  • Right-to-left manga
Comic Vision's vertical webtoon reading mode showing a continuous long-strip layout.

02 · VERTICAL (WEBTOON)

Long-strip, no page breaks.

Manhwa and webtoons land where they belong: vertical scroll, top to bottom, no page boundary in the way of the panel you're trying to read.

  • Continuous scroll
  • Variable image heights
  • Snap-to-panel mode
A volume in Comic Vision with the 3D page-curl reading mode mid-turn.

03 · 3D PAGE-CURL

An optional page-turn mode.

A separate reading mode where pages turn instead of scrolling. A little touch for spatial immersion on the Vision Pro.

  • Separate reading mode
  • Adjustable curl strength
  • Soft drop shadow
Comic Vision's per-comic reading options: reading mode, direction, and page-display overrides for a single volume.

04 · PER-COMIC DEFAULTS

A global default, overridable per book.

Set your reading preferences globally, then let any single comic or manga keep its own: mode, direction, page display. It remembers per book.

  • Overrides the global default
  • Reading mode & direction
  • Single vs. double-page
Comic Vision's hands-free gaze-scroll zones at the edges of a comic page.
Comic Vision's long-press card showing a volume's summary, rating, and quick actions over the library.
Comic Vision's next-in-series modal at the end of a volume, suggesting the next issue by volume number.
Little touches

Small touches, for a better experience.

Quiet refinements that add up. A small look-to-scroll zone at the page edges keeps your hands where they are. Long-press any cover for a quick summary without leaving the shelf. And when you reach the last page, the next volume in the series is already queued. One tap to keep going.

  • Look-to-scroll at the edges
  • Long-press quick peek
  • Next-in-series, queued
Cataloguing

Cataloguing for collectors.

Comic Vision's metadata editor showing the full set of editable comic-level fields.
Editing a single page in Comic Vision: page type, rotation, display-alone, and notes.

01 · EDIT METADATA

Every field, editable.

Series, volume, creators, characters, tags at the comic level. Then drop into a single page to add notes, set its type (cover / story / ad), rotate it, or flag it "display alone" so it never breaks a double-page spread.

  • Comic & per-page
  • Page type & rotation
  • "Display alone" flag
Marquee-selecting a group of volumes in Comic Vision's library.

02 · MARQUEE SELECT

Draw a box, edit a shelf.

Marquee-select across the grid the way you'd lasso files in Finder. Then bulk-edit whatever you grabbed.

  • Click-and-drag selection
  • Mixed series
  • Bulk edit anything
Step one of Comic Vision's naming-conventions wizard.

Step three of Comic Vision's naming-conventions wizard.

03 · NAMING-CONVENTIONS WIZARD

Regex-driven naming conventions.

Write a regex for your filenames, map each capture group to a metadata field, and save it as a naming convention. Apply it to a manual selection, or automatically to every newly scanned comic.

  • Regex with live preview
  • Group-to-field mapping
  • Manual or auto-on-scan
Setting relations between volumes during a bulk assign in Comic Vision.
Bulk-assigning a new series across multiple volumes in Comic Vision.

04 · BULK ASSIGN

Assign across a whole selection.

Multi-select volumes and assign series, creators, publisher and relations across the whole selection at once.

  • Series, creators, publisher
  • Volume relations
  • Across your selection

Support

Free, with optional support.

Comic Vision is free, with no subscription wall, no upsell, no premium tier. If you'd like to chip in, the app has a tip jar with a few amounts, and a recurring support option with a few tiers for anyone who wants to keep it going. Both are completely optional and change nothing about the app. They're a way to say thanks, nothing more.

Found a bug or have an idea? The community is the place. Someone might already know how to solve your problem, or I'll move it onto my to-do list. Either way, it's a good place to keep things documented.
