Has anyone else ever heard of or also uses this app?
If you haven't, Mangabox is a free mobile app that works like a weekly manga magazine. Every day over the course of a week new chapters of various manga become available. The series, types, and genres go across the spectrum.
They also have a website but the app offers more. On the website you can see the first and most recent chapters of mangabox's series. On the app you can see the current chapter and can go back over the last 12 weeks' worth of series. Some of the series area lso available on the fan-translation sites so you can use them to catch the chapters you missed.

A few of the series I follow particularly:
High School Ninja Girl, Otonashi-san
(Kunoichi Joshikousei Otonashi-san)
Pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Fuka Otonashi is a ninja. She is also a high school girl. In this 4-koma slice of life story we see the various day to day antics of her as she crushes on the boy she likes, works at the grocery store part time, and deals with the occasional ninja rival.
Hana the Fox Girl
(Shima Shima Hanako)
At the Shimashima Cafe, Fu and her uncle Gen receive a visit from Hana, a little fox who can take human form, and her big brother Tsugumori, a talking dog. While on a camping trip Fu saved Hana's life and now she wants to repay the favor. But once that's done Hana has grown attached to Fu and doesn't want to leave. So she sticks around and becomes the shop's mascot. Gen, not one to miss a chance to make a buck, opens his coffee shop to any and all spiritual creatures so long as they aren't dangerous to humans and have a way to pay, so along with day-to-day life we get occasional visits from all sorts.
Online (a.k.a. Online the Comic)
Mai Yashiro was just another office lady when she receives a handheld game console with only one game, and a threat that she either play the game, "Nightmare", or people close to her will die. The game is just as dangerous to Mai herself. Not only will the console explode if she tries to destroy or get rid of it, if she dies while playing she can potentially die for real. Her 'lives' are counted in term of bodily functions such as use of one of her hands, or her legs, eyes, etc. Fortunately, she isn't alone as she is soon recruited into a branch of her company dedicated to figuring out the secrets of the game.
if you prefer a more romantic bent:
Love and Lies (Koi to Uso)
In this world, the government arranges marriages for people and true love is, if not officially then for intents and purposes, forbidden. Fifteen year-old Yukari is in love with Misaki, but when his government notice comes in for his marriage, he's set up with a girl named Liliana. Fortunately, Liliana is supportive of him chasing his own actual love.
These are just a few series available. you can see more on Mangabox itself if not other sources.
