So, I've been hard at work implementing some requested features; and now they're ready to go.


Devourer is an open source reader / server platform that makes it easy to read your manga and books across multiple platforms.

With support for remote libraries via the Devourer Server; as well as Google Drive, Dropbox and other providers - you're able to read your manga from anywhere.

You can download files or entire series to your device to take with you on the move and not rely on mobile internet when the urge to read strikes!

The Devourer server application is available for Windows, Linux and Mac; whilst the client is available for Windows, Linux, MacOS, iOS and Android.


Features in the latest update include:

  • Multi-user support.
  • Additional filters and searching (genres, authors, etc).
  • Rate remote series / book.
  • Remote tags.
  • Import tags from Calibre.
  • Import ratings from Calibre.
  • Send to Kindle.
