Start with the publisher: MANGA Plus is Shueisha’s service, Shonen Jump and VIZ Manga have separate VIZ libraries, and Crunchyroll Manga offers a different publisher mix. Since rights and catalogs are split, you may need more than one app. The six options below are not equally verified: current official details are available for four, while WEBTOON and Kindle are included as broader reading options without confirmed current manga-specific terms.
How to choose a manga reading app
Check these points before subscribing: whether the series is available where you live, what language it is in, when new chapters arrive, which chapters are free, whether paid access includes older chapters, and whether the app supports downloads or progress sync. Catalog totals are not directly comparable: services count different libraries, and those libraries may overlap only partly.
- Find the title first. Search the service’s catalog for the series you follow rather than choosing by the largest advertised chapter count.
- Check the access rules. Free chapters, reread limits, subscriptions, and digital volume purchases are different ways to read; a free sample does not mean every back chapter remains free.
- Confirm your market and device. Country, language, app support, and release timing can affect what is available. Verify the current listing before relying on a specific feature or price.
- Check downloads and sync separately. Offline reading may depend on the app and title, while progress sync may require an account or login.
Six manga reading apps to consider
1. MANGA Plus by SHUEISHA
MANGA Plus is the natural starting point for readers following Shueisha series. Its US App Store listing describes it as Shueisha’s official service and says the latest chapters are released “at the same time as in Japan”; that is the service’s own description, not an independent timing test. The listing says the first three and newest three chapters are free, and that ongoing manga in English can be read once for free. Those rules do not mean every back chapter is permanently free.
Language and title availability vary by region. The listing also mentions paid MANGA Plus MAX plans and access to over 17,000 English chapters for its MAX offering, but plan pricing and title availability vary by country or region. Check the listing and plan details for your market before subscribing. MANGA Plus on the US App Store

2. Shonen Jump
VIZ describes Shonen Jump as its official source for Shonen Jump manga. Its app page advertises free chapters, digital volume purchases, offline downloads, and a subscription vault of 20,000+ chapters for $3.99 per month. These are VIZ’s advertised figures and price as accessed on October 7, 2026; they can change. VIZ says reading progress syncs when you are logged in on the app and website.

3. VIZ Manga
VIZ Manga is a separate, wider VIZ catalog rather than another name for the Shonen Jump library. VIZ advertises new free chapters weekly, digital volume purchases, downloads, cross-device sync, and a library of 10,000+ chapters for $1.99 per month. The chapter count and monthly price are VIZ’s listed figures as accessed on October 7, 2026, not a promise of future pricing.
