It's finally happening!!

In MAL-land, Halloween is the new Christmas:
we've got official apps for both Android and iOS coming to you by end of October!


Here's a sneak peek...




For those brave iOS souls who don't mind a few buggy notifications or problems, we've opened the iOS version for early testing: Click Me

Our devs are still hard at work smashing bugs and fixing problems, so if you want everything pristine, we recommend to wait until official launch. But if you can't possibly wait 2 weeks and must have it now, please give it an install and tell us what you think!

We'll be announcing the release of both apps once they're ready to go, so be sure to check back around Halloween.

In the meantime...
...our mods are cooking up some SPoOkY things in MALoween Mansion opening October 25. If you haven't participated in this annual community event yet, what are you waiting for?


Update November 2
Sorry everyone, it's my fault for not editing this post sooner. Covid shenanigans IRL sidelined me and my brain just hasn't been working properly. I'll be posting a new announcement tomorrow NA time about the apps, so please just give us another 24 hours. The delay is completely on me.

Sorry for making you feel like you got your hopes for nothing. The app is on its way.

So far I have had 1 bug, being that the app is stuck on the splash screen forever, so I can't exactly test for other bugs. Either way, I am looking forward to the official release.

Overall the app is nice but there are three major things lacking in the app: a better UI, ability to track & edit manga progress and dark mode. C'mon MAL please give us dark mode.

On IOS it’s pretty solid so far however I hope for the final release you don’t get sent to the browser every time you click a review, other users, VAs, and etc.

Looks great and will be much easier to upload. Will there also be a section for Forum access?

It’s good but it needs to be optimized for iPad too. Right now it’s bad on iPad but good on iPhone.

So is this app using the public api the revived recently which means it will only have features based on the public API? OR it's using internal api so it will have more features?

I'm a dev and I'm planning to create a MAL mobile app with auto episode tracking feature (because I watch anime on mobile sometimes). and also wondering if this app will be open source. But I think if it's using internal api, that would be impossible.

I'm currently making something like taiga alternative for windows which is almost done already.
