Local manga

Manatan can read manga stored locally on your device.

1) Set your local manga folder

1. Open Settings > Browse.
2. Set Local Manga source location.
3. Open Browse > Sources > Local source.

If you add new chapters later, refresh the chapter list.

2) Supported folder structure

Inside your local manga folder:

• one folder per series
• each chapter is either a folder of images or one archive file

Chapter folders (recommended)

    001.cbz
    002.cbz

Supported chapter formats include image folders and archive files such as .zip/.cbz and .rar/.cbr.

Common issues

My series does not show up

1. Confirm the folder path is correct.
2. Confirm chapter folders/files are inside the series folder.
3. Refresh the list.

Chapters are in the wrong order

Use zero-padded naming like 001, 002, 010.
