Built for comics

Not a PDF viewer
with better branding.

Ninth understands the grammar of a comic page — its spreads, panels, direction, and rhythm — then gets out of the way.

01

True spreads

Single pages or two-up, with page curl and the original spread intact.

02

Guided view

Move panel by panel on smaller screens. Adjust the automatic crop when you want.

03

Manga & webtoons

Right-to-left reading and long vertical pages feel native, not bolted on.

04

Live Text

Select, copy, or translate words from any panel without leaving the page.

New · Reader customizations

Make every page
its own world.

Choose a color, let Ninth find the page’s strongest tone, or surround the art with a living gradient pulled from the page itself.

Aurora Station #4 12 / 28

Dynamic finds the page’s defining color and lets the artwork set the mood.

Background

Backgrounds apply everywhere; Trim Borders is remembered per issue.

A real library

Chaos in.
Collection out.

Bring years of folders, issue numbers, and reading lists. Ninth identifies series, fills metadata, spots gaps, and remembers exactly where you stopped.

Smart metadata

From filename to full story.

Match issues against the Grand Comics Database, then browse by series, creator, arc, or reading status.

Reading lists

The whole crossover, in order.

Private by design

We can’t see your library.

No account. No analytics. Apple sync stays in your private iCloud database. Ninth connects directly from your device to the servers you choose.

Open by default

Your shelf can live anywhere.

Import local files, browse Dropbox, or connect the comic server you already run. Stream when you want; download when you need.

The thoughtful stuff

Small features.
Big difference.

Reading time that learns

Every issue and list gets an estimate based on your actual pace.

Lock any shelf

Put Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode in front of a comic or collection.

Scan the paper pile

Capture physical issues page by page and file them beside everything else.

Progress everywhere

Pick up on another Apple device, or sync progress back to Komga and Kavita.

Everything means everything

One app.
One price.

No monthly meter. No pro tier. No surprise unlock for the feature you actually wanted.
