Pros and cons of Wikiwand: Faster Wikipedia Reader app for iPhone and iPad

Wikiwand: Faster Wikipedia Reader app good for

This is the one you were looking for ... Settle for this and you will gain money.
This one is by far the best Wikipedia Reader on the planet. Their website & the Browser Extension was already mind blowing, and finally heres their App. In short: extrem beautiful, distraction free & handy features!
Wikiwand adds true value to the Wikipedia content by shaping it into a informative, fun-to-use layout/interface. It brings Wikipedia to the 2010s.
Very nice! Will there be support for download the whole wikipedia? Please...
Best way to get all Wikipedia information easily. Great work by the developer.
Best tool I ever found to ask any question and related topics goes from one topic to the other if you press on it really a useful tool you wont be able to live without it fast and concise information can be found quickly and also very elaborate description

Some bad moments

Are people using Wikipedia needing to switch languages so often that they need a language changing button (EN for English) in the main navigation area of the app? Ive seen this in other Wikipedia apps and it makes no sense to have in the main area of the app. Its a setting at best, or something that can be grabbed from the device settings on the iPhone. Almost every UI decision in this app seems to make no sense.
Found this today when I was about to re-download the regular Wikipedia app. It had a slightly better star rating so I thought Id try it. Im glad I did. A few things that stood out. It puts important information right at the top. For example Ive always found it a bit of a pain to find specific things in the regular app. A persons current age is an example. I normally have to do an extra tap or scroll to see it. This one has colored boxes with important information. One thing I really like is that if theres a link in the article, I can click it and have a little box open telling me some basic information. I dont have to follow it unless I want to. Little things like that show that thought was put into this design.
Good app but no way to increase font size or to make them bolder. This is quite annoying to those of us whose eyesight is less than 20/20. Otherwise, Id give it five stars.
Easy to read, well organized, and very colorful. The best Wikipedia app so far.
This is what Wiki needed. The "search for stories near you" feature is brilliant.
Like the title says this is the best way to use Wikipedia. It looks great, works well, and the interface is intuitive. I just really hope it doesnt get ruined by ads eventually! Thanks for your work!
