All MangaTime needs to bring over your AniList manga list is your username. It takes a minute, and from then on you get a push notification whenever a series you follow has a new chapter.
Step 1: make your list public on AniList
- Open AniList and go to Settings → Account.
- Set the privacy option to Public and save.
You can make it private again once the import is done.
Step 2: import it into MangaTime
- Download MangaTime for iOS or Android and create your free account.
- When the app asks "Where's your list?", pick AniList. Already using MangaTime? Go to Library → Settings (gear icon) → Third Party Import → AniList.
- Type your AniList username. The app checks it, then imports your list automatically.
What comes along
- Your manga, manhwa and manhua, matched to the MangaTime catalog.
- Reading status and chapters read, so your "Next Chapters" list starts from the right place.
Why add MangaTime to AniList
- Push notifications the moment a new chapter is out.
- Chapter-level tracking built for your phone, with home screen widgets, streaks and a monthly recap.
- One library with what you track on MyAnimeList, Kenmei or Mihon.
