LF: Android manga reader that includes image upscaling/noise reduction (self.animepiracy)

I read manga on the Hisense Touch which has a somewhat small screen, making it very hard to read some manga. At first, I thought the Touch just had really bad display sharpness but then I realized most scans are just too low-res.

For some manga, I need to hold my phone like 2 inches away from my eyes which is horrible and very damaging for my eyesight, so I was wondering if there's a manga reader app out there that upscales manga/reduces noise as you read (using something like waifu2x)

I found this feature request for Tachiyomi but it was quickly turned down and as such my expectations are quite low, but I figured I'd ask anyway

Idk if it'd even be possible to create a mobile app capable of real-time/on-the-fly upscaling using neural networks, especially when manga pages tend to be quite large. If you want something free, best bet would be to use something like chainner on a reasonably good PC and bulk upscale chapters before loading them into your phone.

Alright, I see, thanks.
