This is also the place where you can organize and manage all your favorites. Spend some time playing around on this screen to familiarize yourself. While poking around, you may have noticed that swiping from the left and the right bring out the app menu and a library filters respectively. The app menu helps navigate to different features of the app. If you ever get lost inside the app, press the back button a few times and you'll be back here or use the menu option **My library**. - -Tachiyomi Greeting Page -Tachiyomi Menu -Tachiyomi Library Filters - -Now that you are a bit familiar with the app, we can get on with adding manga to your library. - -### Adding your first Manga -Lets say you were on reddit when you found this really amazing manga *Tokikaku Cawaii* and you really want to read it. I understand how you feel but hold your horses! First you need to understand how Tachiyomi functions, it lets you read manga from a large number of sources (Psst! Complete list available [here](../EXTENSIONS).) but, *you* have to let it know how to talk to those sources. To allow Tachiyomi to ask a source for a manga, we need an extension. -Open up the menu by swiping from the left and press on **Extensions**. You should now see a list of extensions that are ready to be downloaded and installed however, if you see an empty list then pull down to refresh the list. Now your screen should look something like the following: - -Tachiyomi Extensions List - -You may notice that you already know a number of websites on the list, _you pervert_. Ignore those, for now focus on MangaDex in the list, a website that has *Tonikaku Cawaii*. Go ahead and click install there is not much in between you and the pleasure of reading your soon to be favorite manga. Tachiyomi should download and ask for your permission to allow for installing the extension. Allow Tachiyomi to install and you should have Mangadex available in your **Catalogues** list. -Open up the menu and go to **Catalogues** you should find *MandaDex* as one of the available options, touch it to open the MangaDex catalog. - -Tachiyomi Catalogues List -Tachiyomi Mangadex Catalog - -From this screen you can either just long press on a manga to add it to your favorites or touch it to open its description and then add it to your favorites from there. I know that the manga here are very tempting but stay strong, we are looking for *Tonikaku Cawaii*. You can click on the search icon to and type in "Tonikaku Cawaii" to look for the manga on MangaDex. - -At this point, you could have either found the manga or got an error. If you found the manga that's great but don't panic if you got an error message. MangaDex is probably using a security measure that only lets logged in users to use the search feature so, to find *Tonikaku Cawaii* we would have to login first. Click on the three dots at the top right corner and select "Open in web view". This should open Mangadex and allow you to sign up/login. After logging in you want to set *view mode* to *Detailed* in the Mangadex settings[citation](https://discordapp.com/channels/349436576037732353/403520500443119619/567063773362520084).

This is very irritating because every time you finish a chapter, there is a second copy of the same chapter that pops up after it.
