Each comic is loaded as you browse; nothing is currently saved to disk. That means you need a Wi-Fi connection to use this app!

  • Catch up on the latest xkcd comics, or browse your old favorites! (Some old JPG comics not currently supported),
  • Easily jump to a comic by number, latest, or at random,
  • View the title, number, date, and alt text for each comic,
  • Press the menu button to show a QR code for the current comic. Scan the code with your phone to view comics with color or interactivity!
