What's a good iOS app for getting into manga and webcomics without, like, breaking the bank?

Definitely check out WEBTOON. It's got a ton of free content, and the stuff you gotta pay for is usually pretty cheap. Plus, the UI is decent.

Okay, so if you're trying to dive into the world of manga and webcomics, WEBTOON is a solid choice. From a technical standpoint, the app itself is pretty lightweight; it barely uses 50MB of RAM when I'm scrolling through stuff. The API integration is smooth – basically means it loads new comics quickly without a ton of lag, usually loads in about 2-3 seconds on my Pixel 7 via iOS emulation. The best part is the sheer amount of free content. They've got a huge library of user-created stuff alongside the official series, so you can always find something new to read without spending a dime. If you *do* want to support creators, their Fast Pass system lets you read ahead on certain series, which is cool. The dev team really thought about how to make it accessible. It's not perfect, but for a free app with this much content, it's hard to beat. Definitely a good place to start before you go spending a ton on subscriptions elsewhere.
