Read manga in
your language
inside every bubble.

The free tier isn't a trial. On-device translation is unlimited and free forever — no account, no ads. Sign in, still free, and you also get 10 AI translations a day. Pro is what unlocks whole-chapter translation, unlimited AI, story context, Live Captions, web novels, and the system-wide iOS Shortcut.

Offline translation runs entirely on your device — fast, private, decent quality for straightforward dialogue. Pro uses a cloud LLM that understands tone, character relationships, and context you provide. The difference is most visible on dramatic scenes, slang, and anything where word-for-word translation sounds wrong.

No. Give EasyComix a chapter URL and it takes the whole chapter. Live mode translates pages as you scroll, so you start reading straight away; Classic mode translates the chapter first, which reads more consistently because the AI sees more of the story at once. Both are Pro. Single pages — a screenshot, an import, a photo — stay free.

Two ways, both Pro. The iOS Shortcut grabs the page you are on, translates it, and hands it straight back — bind it to the Action Button, Back Tap, AssistiveTouch, or Siri. Live Captions goes further: mark a zone on screen once, then scroll in your own reader while a floating bar translates the dialogue as it appears.

Paste a chapter URL and EasyComix pulls the text out, translates it, and lays it out in a real reader — your font, size, and theme, with the next chapter one tap away. One chapter is free; Pro translates 30 a day.

Generic translators do one screenshot at a time and hand the words back in a box beside the picture. EasyComix is built for comics the whole way down.

The OCR is trained on comic lettering and vertical Japanese, with a separate recognizer per script. The translation is drawn inside each speech bubble, over cleaned artwork — never in a side panel. A whole chapter translates from one URL instead of page by page. Live Captions lets you keep scrolling in your own reading app while a floating bar translates the dialogue as it appears. The iOS Shortcut translates whatever page you are already on, without switching apps.

And story context you write once — character names, who is formal with whom, how they speak — carries through the whole chapter. That is the part a word-by-word tool can never do.

Yes to all — and each format is handled on its own terms rather than pushed through one generic pipeline.

Japanese manga runs a manga-trained recognizer that reads vertical lettering and sound effects. Korean manhwa runs a Hangul model tuned on webtoon type. Chinese manhua and Latin-script comics run a multilingual recognizer. Twenty-seven source languages in total, all recognized on your device.

The rest of the pipeline follows the format too: a webtoon’s tall continuous scroll is processed differently from the fixed pages of a tankōbon, bubble order is read right-to-left for Japanese and left-to-right for everything else, and line breaking respects scripts that put no spaces between words.

Every bubble is detected and translated independently, so duplicate text doesn't happen. Pages process as a batch with a progress indicator — you always know what's happening. If a translation fails, the bubble is left as the original rather than wiped blank.

Twenty-seven. English, Vietnamese, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Thai, Turkish, Indonesian, Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional) all work offline. Seven more — Greek, Swedish, Czech, Hebrew, Malay, Romanian, and Taiwanese Hokkien — need Pro, because they only run through the AI translator.

Pro is available as Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly auto-renewing subscriptions. Exact prices are shown in the App Store (they vary by region). Cancel anytime in your App Store settings.

Your comic images never leave your iPhone. Not for translation, not for storage, not for training. EasyComix has no image upload in it at all — there is nowhere for a picture to go.

Here is the whole path. The page is scanned on your device. The speech bubbles are found on your device. The lettering is read into plain text on your device. In free offline mode the translation happens on your device as well, so nothing whatsoever is sent anywhere.

In Pro mode exactly one thing travels: that handful of recognized sentences, as text. Alongside it go the language pair, the address of the page you are reading, and any story context you typed — a few hundred characters of writing, no pictures. Live Captions works the same way: your screen is read on your device and only the text goes out.

That text is used to translate your page and nothing else. It is not kept, and it is not used to train any model.

EasyComix does not provide comics and does not distribute them. It hosts nothing, stores nothing, and ships no catalogue, index, or directory of where to find anything. It is a translator: it works on whatever image you hand it, and it has no idea where that image came from.

It is made for personal reading — a volume you own and scanned, a chapter you bought, a page you already have the right to read. What you read, and whether you are entitled to read it, is between you and the publisher.
