How do I connect ManYue to NAS manga over SMB?
When manga already lives in a NAS shared folder and you have not turned on WebDAV or Komga yet, SMB is often the shorter path—many NAS devices expose it by default. You supply legal files yourself; ManYue does not host or sell manga.
Steps
- Enable SMB on the NAS (some systems label it Windows file service / Samba), create a read-only account, and note the host (LAN IP or hostname), share name, and the folder that holds your manga.
- Try the connection on the same local network first; treat remote access as a separate, secure setup.
- Open ManYue (漫阅+), add a source, and choose SMB (the entry may read “add SMB source”—labels vary by version). Enter host, share name, path, and account.
- Open one small volume first: the directory lists, pages turn, and progress sticks. Then browse the rest.
- If it fails, check extra slashes in the share name, read permission on that folder, and whether phone and NAS share a LAN. WebDAV-only setups should use WebDAV; Komga users can see the Komga checklist.

FAQ
SMB or WebDAV?
Use whichever the NAS already exposes; ManYue supports both. Get one working—no need to run both. Folder access is also different from a Komga-style server library.
Is a membership required?
NAS and cloud-import capabilities follow the in-app notes. A few local CBZ files can start with import from Files.
Does ManYue provide manga?
No. You add your own files and remain responsible for rights. The app opens, paginates, and organizes what you connect.
