I used nearly all the premium and free reader apps and let me tell you, in terms of ux, innovation and accessibility this is the best one in the market.

Panels is a great app for all your reading purposesIt takes some time to learn the UI but when you get a grab of it it is perfectI also like that you can group them on a single page so it won’t be crowdedThe developers also nailed the “Premium” feature by adding things that are really not necessary and are just luxuries like full page view and customisation options overall the app is pretty good and I would recommend it to everyone
best of the best, love this app soooo much!!

Continue Issue Fixed
thepixelglitch
Continue to read feature is fixed. However, I cannot configure the reader. The page does not fill the screen when I change the page fitting option. The same issue happens in the page transition option too. Transition effect resets instantly although I changed it.
Developer Response
Thanks for letting us know. The issue should be fixed now, please update to the latest version
Improvements
- Deleting a comic now also frees the temporary files Panels unpacked in order to read it.
- Those temporary files are now always cleaned up, including when the app is closed in the middle of a comic.
- General stability and memory fixes across the library, search and import screens.
Fixes
- Fixed being unable to move on to the next comic when your library is sorted by Last Read or Reading Progress. Opening a comic moved it to the end of its own folder, so swiping, tapping and the menu all had nowhere to go. Next Up on Reading Now was affected too.
- Fixed comics reopening on the wrong page. The single-page and double-page readers could stop tracking your position for the rest of a session, so closing the comic, rotating, opening the page selector or tapping to advance would jump back to an earlier page.
- Fixed the OneDrive importer getting stuck on a loading spinner when it could not list your files.
