Downloads & automation
Downloads
The download queue shows live per-item progress with toasts, plus a history view for completed downloads and automatic retry on failure. A storage-warning dialog steps in before you fill the disk.
Automation
Automation rules live at two levels: global defaults under Settings → Automation, and per-series overrides opened from a title’s Series Detail page. A master toggle enables the system, and an enforce global defaults switch can lock out per-series overrides entirely.
| Auto-download new chapters | Downloads new chapters as they appear |
| Download ahead | Off, 2, 5, or 10 chapters pre-fetched while reading |
| Max chapters to keep | Off, 5, 10, or 25; oldest deleted past the limit |
| Delete after reading | Removes a chapter once read, with a delay of now, 1 day, or 1 week |
| Default refresh interval | Daily, weekly, or manual update checks |
Per-series overrides use the same options, plus scanlator preferences (preferred, filtered, blacklisted, forced) and a pause-updates flag. Settings → Automation shows how many series have custom overrides and can reset them all back to the global defaults in one action.
