Tachiyomi
Warning
Tachiyomi was a manga reader, it has been discontinued. It’s successor is Mihon
Notes¶
-
Tachiyomi is discontinued = no more updates. It’s still working now but won’t guarantee it’ll continue working in the future, especially if you upgraded to new Android versions.
-
Tachiyomi spiritual successor is Mihon[1], although other alternatives also available like TachiyomiJ2K, TachiyomiSY, Yokai, etc. Though Mihon is the one that looks and behaves exactly like Tachiyomi… for now.
-
Currently Mihon is still compatible with Tachiyomi’s backup file, so you can just backup Tachiyomi settings and restore it in Mihon.
-
You’ll be asked to give a folder access to Mihon, just pick your old Tachiyomi’s folder where all your downloaded and local manga files reside.
-
Because of the legal problem, Tachiyomi and Mihon now has become a reader-only and won’t provide extensions anymore, you have to provide your own manga files -or- use a 3rd party extensions repo, which isn’t verified by the Mihon/Tachi developers, so watch out on what you install.
-
To get the extensions, you can add in repo into Mihon (More > Settings > Browse > Extension repos), most commonly used repo that I know of is Keiyoushi[2], just go to the link and follow instructions.
-
After installing the repo, go to extensions and install whichever you want, after installing you’ll see a shield icon with X inside on the side of the extension, tap that and pick ‘Trust this extension’. You have to do this every extension update.
