Hi,

I'm sure this has been covered already, but even after reading the FAQ and the forum I can't get a clear idea.

Because my iPad can't fit my whole library, I usually sync only a few comics at a time, I read them (fully or not) and I delete them.
I do all this while offline, because I mostly read while commuting.

When I finally get back to browsing my library, I'd like for it to learn what's I've done so far (what I read, fully or not etc..), so that I'd be able to exclude - for example - all read comics - or re-download a comic I left on page 36 and start from that page again...

It seems to me that YAC for iOS done's work that way, not yet at least.

Could someone confirm or deny?

Btw, I also would like to report a little bug on YACLibrary: it crops&resizes all my covers, resulting in a very weird looking library... also, it often skip somehow the real cover and show some random page instead....

P.S.: still the fastest App I've encounter so far, so kudos on that :-)

Hi,

Is the sync button working? You should be able to sync back to YACReaderLibrary the reading progress.

And yes, the progress should be imported to YACReader for iOS, I have tested it right now and it is not working. So thanks for reporting.

Filtering while browsing (f.e. to avoid read comics) has not been implemented yet. A new version of the server is being implemented and the iOS browser is going to be redone, now it is web based and it will be totally native in the future. So I am not improving the current implementation, new features have to wait until these tasks will be done. I can't give you an ETA yet.

The short* term roadmap is:
  1. Release YACReader 9.0.0, there are some blocking bugs that have to fixed before releasing it.
  2. Publish a new version of YACReader for iOS to add support for iPhoneX and fix some bugs
  3. After that I would like to work on the new server/client integration, this is the feature I use most in YACReader for iOS and it needs a big improvement

*Please, take "short" with a pinch of salt, I don't know how long is going to take.

About the covers, could I see a screenshot, if you don't want to publish it here, please send it to me by e-mail. Covers in the grid view are cropped to fit, but it shouldn't look that bad, I just want to confirm that this is not a bug.

Hi,

I'm glad I could be of help :-)

About the screenshot, I'll send it asap, as I don't have it at hand right now.

Basically, I believe the culprit is that I mostly have comics in 4/3, and the grid seems to adapt to the american comic book format (Marvel, DC etc...), which is taller and thinner. Also, some of my comics have covers composed by both back and front cover, resulting in a rectangle leaned on the longest side.

I hope this give you a picture of what I meant, in the meanwhile :-)

keep up the good job!
