Hi everyone. As the title says, I’m looking for a method to download manga on smartphone and then read it with a proper offline reader (any suggestion is appreciated).

Example: I’ve been reading comics (downloading them on the smartphone and then reading them with “Perfect Viewer” app) for years and I would start to read manga also with a similar solution.

I prefer to download them on the smartphone (and don’t read it online) because I don’t have always a decent Internet connection, and when I can access to that I use that to download as many comics I can.

Thanks in advance for all your help

EDIT: Thanks for your help, I’ll try Mihon and Kotatsu

I got Mihon as recommended by comments here. But how do I know which extension is “safe”?

I’m an old timer and was recommended tachiyomi a lot, but these days I just go online TBH. Most manga isn’t worth it for me to keep

Mihon (tachiyomi fork) can track and sync progress to mal. Makes switching sources way easier.

Does it work on desktop? Linux?

Dunno. Afaik Tachiyomi doesnt officially exist as a desktop app either so maybe only emulation of the android app?
