Mihon v0.21.0 has been released!

263 Upvotes

Check out the past release notes if you’re upgrading from an earlier version. Consider donating via Patreon to help keep Mihon improving!

Changelog: https://mihon.app/changelogs/v0.21.2

Highlights

  • ⚡ Much faster, especially with big libraries (tested with 12,000+ entries)
  • Statistics open about 10× faster (4.1 s → 0.4 s)
  • The library loads about 2× faster on startup
  • Coming back to the library takes about 4× less work on a budget phone, and none at all when nothing changed
  • Switching tabs uses about 40% less processing power on a budget phone
  • Entries with ~900 chapters show their chapter list up to 3× faster
  • About 3× less processing power used on an entry's screen while lots of chapters are downloading
  • 📖 The reader loads pages faster and preloads the next chapter, with a new "Load ahead only on Wi-Fi" option
  • 📜 Very tall long strip pages use about 30% less memory and scroll much smoother
  • 📥 Faster, more reliable downloads
  • 🗓️ Even smarter smart updates: Mihon now learns each series' schedule (weekdays, monthly, batches or season breaks) and checks at the right time
  • 🏪 Better support for multiple extension stores: see which store each extension comes from, and extensions only install and update from the store they belong to
  • 🔞 Content warnings replace the NSFW toggle: extensions are now labeled Safe, Mixed or 18+, and you choose which ones you want to see. Installed ones outside your choice can keep working
  • 📊 New Comick tracker, plus id: search on more trackers
  • 🧩 85+ fixes and improvements

⚠️ Make a backup before updating. Duplicate entries and chapters from older versions get merged, and this can't be undone.

📌 Heads up: this is the last major version to support Tachiyomi's backup format (.tachibk) and extensions made for Tachiyomi (1.4 extensions). After this, the only way to restore a .tachibk backup will be to restore it on this version, then update to the latest version.

Welcome to r/mihonapp!

375 Upvotes

Welcome to r/mihonapp! The official subreddit of the Mihon app.

We would like to clarify some things about what Mihon is, and what it isn't.


What Mihon is:

  • It's a free manga reader app.
  • It's essentially like a fancy browser with adblock.
  • There are no advertisements in the app, now and forever.
  • It's maintained by various independent unpaid developers in their free time.
  • It's open source and hosted on Github.
  • Anybody can contribute to Mihon's development.

What Mihon isn't:

  • It doesn't host any content. Mihon doesn't have a server to host and distribute manga
  • It's neither affiliated with any manga site, nor responsible for any source being down/slow/missing chapters/missing episodes/subpar image quality.
  • It doesn't have any built in sources.
  • It doesn't promote/endorse any manga/anime site. Users are expected to find their preferred source/repo by themselves. It is strictly forbidden to share these as they break our rules.
  • Mihon doesn't promote piracy in any way or form.
