Overview

Most of what you do on GenToon happens in four places: the Studio, where you make comics; Projects, where your projects and characters live; the Community, where you read other people’s comics; and Account, where you manage your subscription and account. Use this page as a map whenever you’re not sure where to go. It describes the GenToon website. In the app, you move between screens with the tabs along the bottom — see Using GenToon on the web and in the app for the differences.

Your profile menu

Click your profile picture on the right side of the top menu to open it. The series you subscribe to and the ones you’re reading are collected under My library in this menu.

  • Projects — See all your projects, characters, and elements, and get to the Trash.
  • Account — Manage your subscription, billing history, account details, notifications, and friend invites.
  • Community Profile — See your public Community profile and the comics you’ve published, and change your name and profile photo here.
  • Log Out — Sign out on the device you’re using.

The Studio

This is where you actually make comics. Panels stack vertically on the canvas in the middle. The tabs on the left are Create for your characters and worlds, Series for managing your series, and SNS Auto for posting to your Instagram and Threads. On the right are the Agent Mode tab, where you chat with Zennyang, and the Single Panel tab, where you make one panel at a time. The bar across the top handles saving, undo, publishing, and downloads.

For a closer look at each area, read Studio layout.

Projects

Click Projects in your profile menu to see everything you’ve made in one place.

  • All — A quick look at your recent projects, characters, and elements.
  • Comic Space — All of your projects as cards. Click a card to open it in the Studio.
  • My Characters · My Elements — The characters and elements you’ve saved.
  • Use the Create New Comic button at the top to start a new project, and the Trash button to open the Trash.

Account

Go to Account in your profile menu to manage your subscription and credits, billing history, and notifications. You can also see where your credits went. See View your credit history for details. You change your name and profile photo on your Community Profile. The Edit in Community button on the My Account tab takes you there too — see Change your name and profile photo.

FAQ

Is there a button in the Studio that takes me to Projects?
There’s no direct button in the Studio, so you’ll go through the home page. If the Save Project button at the top has a purple outline, you have unsaved changes — click it first, because leaving through the logo may not save your latest edits. Then click the GenToon logo in the top-left corner to go home, and open Projects from your profile menu.
I can’t find a project I made.
You may be signed in to a different account, or the project may be in a team workspace or the Trash. Check that you signed in the same way, with the same account, as when you signed up. Projects made in a team workspace show up only after you click that workspace’s name near the top of the Projects page. If you have many projects, click “Load More” at the bottom of the Comic Space tab to see older ones — search only looks through the projects already loaded. If you deleted the project, look in the Trash. A brand-new project only appears after something is drawn or you save it.
