Comixology’s “Guided View” - a somewhat dynamic, panel-by-panel reading experience - returns, along with basic pinch-to-zoom for closer reading. The updated Comixology app now promises faster downloads of comics to your library, better search filtering, and new navigation features that, by and large, bring the experience of reading comics on the Comixology app in line with the experience of reading them on Amazon’s Kindle library apps - alongside the fact that you can read Comixology purchases in the Kindle app, and previous Kindle purchases vice versa. Changes to the Comixology app have been largely unobtrusive, aside from the full merger of Amazon and Comixology accounts. Kicking off with this week’s wave of comic releases midweek, Amazon has radically overhauled the experience of using the biggest digital comics storefront in the industry. A new update this week changes that… for the considerable worse.
The ability to sign in with your Amazon account aside, the two storefronts have largely stayed separate. Since Amazon acquired Comixology in 2014, its larger relationship with the storefront - which, for those years, has remained the premiere hub for buying and reading digital comics - has been relatively hands off.
