The app also makes it very easy to import comics, by including an integrated web browser as well as pre-configured connections to accounts on services such as Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Box, Mediafire, Pogoplug, FTP, and even Image Comics, with still more connections (such as Windows and Mac shared folders, OPDS/Calibre support, and the ability to act as a web server) available as an in-app purchase. Chunky is very customizable, but it is also intelligent it will automatically file your imported comics by series, and let you fix any mistakes it makes. Like the best iOS apps, Chunky includes deceptively small touches that enhance the overall experience of using the app, such as: a settings menu that can pop up an explanation of what each setting is and what it does a parental lock a viewing option called “tap to pan” that resembles the much-praised “Guided View” from Comixology and the ability to freely move comics out of the app via the “open in” function. Chunky is also extremely well-designed, sporting a clean, intuitive interface that makes adding, organizing, and reading your comics nearly effortless. They display quickly and there’s no lag or stutter when you turn pages, zoom in or adjust the zoom. First and foremost, comics in any format look great in Chunky. If we had to pick just one app on this list, and reading comics on the iPhone wasn’t required, it would be Chunky Comics Reader. Not many apps are capable of doing all of this, and even fewer are capable of doing it well, so we’ve gathered the best of the best for you below. The other important elements involve the importing and storing of files-ideally, the app should make it simple to import files you’ve bought from sites like or, organize them into a in-app library, and then export the files when you are done reading. This ability to display comic files to their best advantage and make reading them as comfortable as possible is unsurprisingly the most important element of a comic file reader. These files generally contain compressed images (in the format CBR, CBZ, or as a PDF) that each app reads, interprets, and then displays as a nearly-identical version of the paper comic book. Therefore it's more important than ever to have a great app dedicated to reading comic book files. Not sure why that would make a difference, but that seems to be it.With more and more comic publishers offering their comics as DRM-free files, it is easier than ever to read comics on your iPad.

I came to this conclusion through the following tests:ġ) Created a library on the nas with a 4-5 level deep nested folder structure with 10GB of comic data. This appears to be an issue with size of library rather than folder structure.
