Cons:

· It is not PDF compatible.

· The navigation can be a little confusing for a new user in comparison to other free comic book apps for android.

· There are several features and it is very unlikely that every user will find all these features useful.

User reviews:

· This is the best image browser/viewer on Android. Other image viewers are fidgety and limited. They cap out your zoom level arbitrarily, they make it so easy to swipe to another picture that it happens by accident all the time, and they don't allow for much customization. But Perfect Viewer is better than that. If there's anything you don't like about the user experience with PV, chances are you can change it in the extensive options.

· Tried all comics viewers recommended by LifeHacker and this is the best one, hands down. Nice library organization/management, extensive settings when you need them, but what really converted me was the smoothest scrolling in the landscape mode.

· So good! Please add multiple kinds of views in libraries.

· Very pleased with this app in general, the catalog, the frequent sales, GuidedView... However, I have an issue when downloading some of the HD comics to my tablet (Asus Memo Pad 7 ME176CX). When I download an HD version (by default) some comics are so blurry they are impossible to read.
