03 Questions
Is ManiShelf a reader?

No. ManiShelf is a catalog — it tracks what you're reading and watching, your progress, scores, tags, and release dates. It doesn't store, display, or distribute any manga, manhwa, or anime content. You read and watch in whatever apps or services you already use.

Is this a paid app?

ManiShelf is a one-time purchase on the Mac App Store. No subscriptions, no hidden fees.

Is my data private?

Yes. All your data is stored locally on your Mac. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking, no analytics. You own your data completely.

Can I import from MyAnimeList or AniList?

Yes. Just enter your username in Settings and ManiShelf will import your entire list with metadata and cover art.

Does it support manhwa and light novels?

Absolutely. ManiShelf has first-class support for manga, manhwa, manhua, light novels, and anime with metadata from MangaUpdates, AniList, and more.

How do release notifications work?

You can set up a custom release schedule for Manga, Manhwa and Manhua and we will notify you on the date at a chosen time. For ongoing anime, you get exact airing dates.

Does it work on iPhone or iPad?

No. ManiShelf is a native macOS app and only runs on a Mac. An iPhone or iPad version is not available.
