Hmm, weird. It is working on my side.

Is it possible to upload the db to mediafire? (do DB Backup and then zip it).

EDIT: I think I found out the issue, this affecting on new/empty db. I'll update it later :D

Hello!
Firstly, I want to say thank you for everyone who develop this great App!

I have a small problem though, my internal storage is really small, and it almost full with around 300mb free space. I'm sure it'll be completely full with a few more novels.
But my external microSD has more than 29gb free space.

Can I move database, offline downloaded novels, pictures and such data to my external microSD? How to do it?

Thanks for the answer! All the best!

1. Move DB
Not possible because of performance reason, but the size should not that big (5-100 MB) depending on the number of novels your are downloaded.
You can try to move the Application to SD Card using the Android Settings -> Application

2. Move Picture
Usually this is the biggest space hog :D
Go to Settings -> Storage -> tap the Image Save Location and provide the new location.
Old files will not be moved manually, you need to use file manager to do this. After that, press the relink images to update the references stored in the novel contents.
If you are using stock KitKat, this might be not possible because of limitation imposed by google (no r/w access to external storage), you might need to do some modification.

Chapter names aren't being shown correctly when you expand a volume in 1.1.17.

Example (Black Bullet Volume 1 Chapter 1):
Before 1.1.17: Chapter 1 - Tendo Civil Security Company

Now (1.1.17): Black Bullet:Volume 1 Chapter1
I watch it for the plot. No, seriously, I do.

Yap, this is because the wiki API return that title.
Refer to http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/api.p ... 1_Chapter1

I think I can put a check if the page doesn't have title, then use the API value.

EDIT: Updated in 1.1.17b http://www.mediafire.com/download/l1z9j ... e_play.apk
EDIT2: 50k+ downloads in Google Play :D

So my phone is getting full of Novel Data, and I want to move it to my External card but cant figure out how(I've had this a few months and pretty much only read novels on it so yeah) can anyone help?

I'm sorry, I'm so used to there never being any relevant information that I dont even look anymore
So since I cant do that, Can I delete the app and then save it again to my External, and then just reset the stuff and redownload the novels and stuff when I read the series?

the DB cannot be relocated manually (try to use move app to sd card from android settings, DB size usually ranges from 5-100MB), but the images (which takes a lot of space) can be set to sd card (Go to Settings -> Storage -> Images -> tap the Image Save Location and give the proper sd card path (each phone vendor might have different location). Optional step: move the files from the old location to the new location using File Manager (e.g. ES File Explorer) and then Go to Settings -> Storage -> Image Backup -> tap Relink Images (might take some time).

Hi I really want to try this app being a reader of LNs on BT for several years but when I tried installing it on my tablet earlier this week it shows the light novel list in ENG language is empty but the other languages are OK. Did I make a mistake in my settings or is there something wrong with the app right now? Thanks for the reply!

Strangely after the update some novels went missing from the Main novel list as well as from the Teaser list

Example would be like Black Bullet or Kamisu Reina Series
The actual count of the Novels under the Light Novels (English) Category would be 113 but when refreshing the 106 meaning 7 novels are missing from the list

Tried wiping out my entire DB but still only shows 106 novels as opposed to the current 113 english novels

Help would be appreciated.


also how does Manual Adding work anyway

You must type the exact name of the page.

Thanks man you're awesome! It worked! I suggest mentioning this in the app's page as well cos people have been rating it really low due to the complaints.
