Your reading files
YomiShelf supplies a reader, not commercial books, manga, comics or music. Import material you are entitled to use. Website feature demonstrations use original illustrative panels and sample text; they are not supplied commercial books.
Free and the no-payment trial
Free includes two Books, two Manga and two Comics. Start the optional free trial for seven days of unlimited imports and reading. No card or payment is requested. When the trial or a paid licence expires, the first two imports in each shelf remain open; extra reads stay stored behind a lock. Your originals, notes and reading progress are not deleted. Existing notes remain exportable.
Publisher trailers
When no Premium entitlement is active, the Free edition shows two original YomiShelf Premium trailers after each thirty minutes of active foreground use. The square player cannot be closed until both videos finish; mute remains available. A playback failure allows closing the break. You can always close the app. No third-party advertising network, tracking or advertising payment is involved. Active Premium, including the optional seven-day trial and valid passes, is ad-free.
Premium choices
Annual Premium is £72 for twelve months. A friend bundle is £92 total for two separate annual licences (£46 each). Optional paid passes are £0.99 for twenty-four hours or £2.99 for seventy-two hours. Paid time starts when the signed licence is issued. The code contains its dates. It does not restart when pasted again.
Nothing automatically renews or charges you again. To continue after expiry, buy another licence or pass at the price and term shown before payment, then enter the new code. Purchases and code delivery are being prepared. Discounts do not stack. Only the private publisher-owner licence has no expiry; this is not a public lifetime offer.
Free daily reward wheel
The desktop Rewards section offers one free attempt per UTC calendar day per saved local app data, when Premium is inactive. No purchase, paid entry, advert or account is required. Each independent draw has a 1% chance of a 24-hour Premium pass, a 0.2% chance of a 72-hour Premium pass and a 98.8% chance of no reward. Wins unlock automatically and start immediately. There is no cash value, paid extra attempt or automatic renewal. Access expires after the stated hours; imported extras remain saved behind a lock. Offline limits are local, not verified per person. The ordinary free seven-day trial is separate.
Automatic Panel Assist and file support
Automatic assist can miss or misorder panels. Borderless, inset, overlapping or unusual layouts may need manual correction. Use the full-page view and layout editor whenever the automatic result is incomplete. Website demonstrations use prepared original layouts, not a guarantee of detection accuracy on every imported publication. Your source files are not modified. The current development build supports DRM-free EPUB, PDF, CBZ/image ZIP, TXT/Markdown and common images; CBR/RAR, protected Kindle files and OCR are not supported. Animated GIF and multi-frame TIFF imports show the first frame only. Try your own files with Free before buying.
Consumer rights
Nothing here removes statutory consumer rights or remedies for faulty or misdescribed digital content. Where legally applicable, immediate digital supply requires express consent and acknowledgement about the cancellation right, followed by a saveable contract confirmation. Those checkout steps are not active yet. We do not apply a blanket "no refunds" rule.
Reviews
Submit only your own honest experience after trying the app. Use a public nickname and avoid personal data, copyrighted excerpts, threats or spam. You choose to make the text public if approved. Moderation may reject or remove abusive, irrelevant or unlawful content; a negative rating alone is not grounds for rejection. Reviews are self-reported experiences, not verified purchases.
Release status
The intended customer download is one Windows Setup.exe with Python included. It will be enabled only after native builds and release testing. Mac/mobile compatibility, permanent updates and perfect automatic panel detection are not promised. Back up your local library before updates.
Third-party components retain their own licence terms. Brand/trademark clearance and the Windows binary licence audit remain incomplete; this page is not a guarantee of legal clearance.
