Known issues

Duktape errors in sources which use Cloudflare, but this has been fixed with the latest version of Tachiyomi. Update to the latest version on the download page

Application

Library

How can I see how many chapters I've downloaded?

If you want to see how many chapters you have downloaded for all manga on My Library, enable Download Badges. It's under the Filter options in My Library (the upside-down pyramid of lines beside the three-dot) at the very bottom. Red is downloaded chapter count and Blue is unread chapter count.

Some covers are white after restoring from backup.

The URL to the cover has changed. To fix this, refresh the metadata of your library in Settings > Advanced.

Reader

Why are some images not displayed?

Aside from network issues, it could be because the images are too big or the decoder doesn't support that image.

Downloads

What happened to the simultaneous downloads feature?

It was removed in version 0.7.0 to prevent IP bans caused by too many requests. We know that speed is being sacrificed but it's better than not being able to access a source at all.

Downloads are unstable.

Be aware that it could be a network issue on your device or on the catalog you are trying to download from.

Can you make it possible to store manga on both internal storage and external SD-card?

At the moment, no. You could try using symlinks (requires root).

Tracking

How do I log in with Kitsu?

To log in with Kitsu you need to use your Email address as your username.

I can't find manga in MAL's search results.

You can search a manga from your MAL list like this: my: <manga>. #65

Local Manga

How do I import my Manga into Tachiyomi?

We recommend you to read this guide on how to do so.

I can't find the Tachiyomi folder.

If you don't see a Tachiyomi folder on your device, try downloading a chapter of any Manga or creating a backup so that the folder can be created.

Application Updates

How do I enable automatic updates?

The Tachiyomi app now has in-app updating, so if you go to Settings > About > Version to check for updates, you can force an update there or wait for the app to notify you.

Miscellaneous

iOS Version

Is there an iOS version? No. Is there going to be? There are no plans for one since iOS and Android apps are nothing alike.

I lost everything, what now?

Tachiyomi is still in beta. Some design changes or unexpected errors may lead to data loss. While I try for them not to happen, sometimes it is unavoidable. To avoid this in the future, you can use the automatic backup feature in Settings. If your file manager supports it, you may even backup to Google Drive.

Extensions

General

What are some good extensions?

The most popular are MangaDex, ~~MangaRock~~ and MangaSee, these are large sites which host content from scanlators, there are also extensions like Genkan, Madara, FoolSlide and ComiCake which contain sources which host directly from the scanlators own websites.

Here's a good spreadsheet showing the different extensions and their sources.

Why won't the extensions install?

In some cases your phone might have some issues downloading the extensions, in those cases, you can try installing them yourselves directly from the source. Here's the repository for the files.

To install just download the .apk file for the extension you want and then install it, like how you installed Tachiyomi.

How do I uninstall an extension?

Extensions for Tachiyomi are technically installed the same as normal apps. Either you uninstall them through the place you normally uninstall apps or you go to the Extensions tab, enter the extension you wish to uninstall then press Uninstall.

Why don't I have extensions or any sources in the catalog?

A: Tachiyomi 0.8.4 and above no longer have pre-installed extensions, so when upgrading or installing versions above this, installing the extensions you use will be required to install extensions from the extensions menu (the one with the puzzle piece)

B: If you're getting a "Loader not implemented" error after clicking on a manga, you will need to reinstall the extensions you used to use. Which number in the menu corresponds to which is below. Be aware that Batoto is deprecated so you will need to migrate from that source to others.

## ### Source problems Check out: [inorichi/tachiyomi/wiki/Source-problems](https://github.com/inorichi/tachiyomi/wiki/Source-problems). Create your issue or see if it's already been listed [**here**](https://github.com/inorichi/tachiyomi-extensions/issues). ## ### Why am I getting a 503 in (this source)? This may be on account that the source you selected has Cloudflare protection on, so you will need to do a captcha through webview (Not your browser). To do this, you will need to find a manga in your library that is from the source you're trying to access, tap on the overflow menu in the Info tab (3 dots), open in Webview, and do the captcha there (wait for the page to finish loading). Be sure to press back rather than exit the app and if that does not work, use the back arrow. ## ### Cloudflare captcha Please note that webview is not the same as using your browser.

Webview is a new feature introduced in stable version 0.8.4 to allow for log-in only features and solving captcha.

You can find the web view option by opening a manga, then tapping the 3 dots in the top right while in the Info tab If you have no existing manga from the source, go to Catalogues, press Browse beside the source, and open a manga, following the above instructions.

Once you are in webview, you will see a webpage and a bar on top with an arrow at the left side, pointing to the left edge of your screen. If there is no captcha on the webpage, initiate one by tapping a manga title, if possible. Once a captcha is shown, solve it. After that, use the aforementioned back arrow on the bar at the top of your screen to go back to your manga. Please do not use the back button on your phone as it does not work as expected.

If webview doesn't work for you, please update the Android System WebView app through Play Store, then go to Developer Options in your phone's settings and set WebView Implementation to Android System WebView.

MangaDex

No results when searching.

Note: Make sure you're on app version 0.8.4 or higher.

If you're not getting any results when searching MangaDex then you need to log in.

To do so, go to Browse/Latest for MangaDex under Catalogues, open any manga from the list and then press the overflow menu (3 dot menu) in the top-right corner and then the Open in web view button.

Now go to the hamburger menu, press the Manga drop-down and then choose either Sign up or Log in to proceed with the login.

In Mangadex 1.2.52 and newer the extension allows you to search using the id number to find manga. To get the id number look at the URL of the manga you want to add.

An example search: id:31477

Chapters from Mangaplus are broken.

Install the Mangaplus extension and then migrate the manga that uses Mangaplus on Mangadex onto the Mangaplus source.

MangaRock

Regarding MangaRock going away:

You won't lose existing bookmarks or downloads
Chapters will no longer be updated once MangaRock is dead
There is no native way to automatically import your favorites from MangaRock (although you can try waicool20/mr2tachiyomi)
Popular alternatives: Mangasee, Kissmanga, MangaDex, Mangakakalot, Toonily

Migrate to Tachiyomi.

There is a tool to migrate from MangaRock to Tachiyomi courtesy of a member of our Discord server by the same name as the creator, but a computer is required to finish the migration successfully.

Note that you must download the 64-bit version of Java or it will run out of memory. Access the program at waicool20/mr2tachiyomi.

Madara

Leviatan Scans is missing.

Leviatan Scans has shifted from Madara to Genkan extension. Install Genkan. Migrate all Leviatan scans. Update Madara.

KissManga

Error: Page list is empty

If you get this error then you need to solve the captcha on their website using your browser (Google Chrome, Samsung Browser, Firefox, Opera, etc.).
