So I upgraded to the pay version mostly because while the ads really weren't bothering me, they have increased to every 5 or ten pages they pop, whatever but I had some credit so why not. I found customizing the app eat less user friendly than the free--I don't get it either. Contact the developer and instead telling me how to fix so I can swipe from a finished book to the next one he keeps sending me to a webpage to read pages and pages, and guess what? Didn't tell where to find the option.

I want to like this app, but it has issues. I store all my comics on a network drive and access via SMB. With CDisplayEx it has issues displaying certain pages of any random comic at any given time. Whereas another app called Comic Screen displays just fine via SMB. Having the paid version of CDisplayEx, I really want this to be my go to app, but this has been an issue for for some time, but it appears to not be an issue with my setup, but the app itself.

Love the app. The smb and the color correction are the easiest and best out there for comics on Android. Almost 100% fits my needs. The only thing I wish you'd implement are more fit to options. I'd like to see Fit Visible Fill Visible Fit height (these exist) Fit width (these exist) Original (these exist) So really only adding the two (fit and fill Visible) would make it perfect. Hope to hear from you.
