I just wanted to share some screens of my upcoming Android project, a manga reader. It still doesn't have a name as I'm not quite sure if it will just focus on mangas, comics in general, or if it will become a fully featured eReader at some point.

Anyway, here are some screens of the current look of it.

Main screen with favorites mangas

UPDATE: I decided to cancel this project for a while as it depends on services that I can't control. If you are a comic writer and want to publish your work on Android, contact me.

Ok, it's more like a book, pdf, online manga, offline manga reader. Why? Because I tried different applications on the market that could allow me to read online manga and I didn't like any of them.

What are the features?

• 2 zoom levels
• Ability to create favorites
• Cool interface.
• Tablet and phone friendly
• Will open ZIP files or files in a directory besides the online mangas.
• Can list all unlicensed mangas from OneManga and favorite them for easy access. (It won't store any file on the actual device)

So far the requirements are Android 1.5 and that's it. Maybe in a near future I may have to drop support for it as it can't handle multiple device densities correctly.

When and "how much"?

When it gets to a stable point and It will only be ad supported as I can't sell applications from within Canada.

Here's a very alpha screenshot showing the list from OneManga.com
