Local Source Guide
A complete guide to importing and reading offline manga chapters, comic archives, and EPUB light novels in Wammy.
1. Locating the Local Storage Directory
By default, Wammy creates a storage folder on your device: Internal Storage/Wammy/local/
You can verify or change this path at any time in Settings > Data and storage > Storage location.
2. Preparing Comic Archives & Manga
Wammy recognizes comic archives packaged as .cbz, .cbr, .zip, or .rar, as well as uncompressed image folders.
Create a folder for the series inside Wammy/local/, and place chapter archives or image folders inside:
text
Wammy/
└── local/
└── Berserk/
├── cover.jpg <-- Optional series cover
├── Chapter 001.cbz
├── Chapter 002.cbz
└── Chapter 003/ <-- Image folder chapter
├── page_001.jpg
├── page_002.jpg
└── page_003.jpg3. Preparing Light Novels (EPUB)
For light novels, place .epub files directly inside a series folder:
text
Wammy/
└── local/
└── Monogatari/
├── cover.jpg
├── Volume 01 - Bakemonogatari.epub
└── Volume 02 - Kizumonogatari.epub4. Reading Local Series in Wammy
