Page thumbnails and double page grouping

While reading, the horizontal carousel at the bottom of the screen shows your page thumbnails. Beyond jumping around the comic, long pressing a thumbnail is how you fix page grouping and share a page.

Double page grouping​

When reading in double page mode, Panels groups pages for you automatically. It keeps the cover as a single page, starts grouping from the second page, and leaves any landscape page on its own.

That's the right answer for most comics, but not all of them — a missing or extra page early on throws off everything after it.

Fixing the grouping​

Long press any page thumbnail and select Group from this page on.

That page becomes the start of a new grouping (placed on the left side for left-to-right reading), and the rest of the pages rearrange to follow.

In the example below, pages 2-3 are grouped initially. After tapping Group from this page on, pages 3-4 are grouped instead and page 2 is left on its own.

Sharing a page​

Long press a page in the thumbnail carousel and choose share to send that page elsewhere — messages, notes, or any app in the iOS share sheet.

tip

Want to pull text or a character out of a page rather than share the whole thing? Live Text lets you select text and subjects directly, including turning a subject into a sticker.
