Love it!
Ive been looking for a cure-all Wikipedia app for a long time, and Ive tried out literally (not figuratively) every one since the days of the 1st generation iPhone. While Ive had a few favorites in the past, theyve aged without updates and maintenance, and no longer offer as rich an experience as they once did on the current generation of iPhones.
Since then, Ive constantly been on the lookout for a Wikipedia reader that offers the right amount of functionality with a good UI. A lot of the apps dont incorporate the best features, and while some do, the UI isnt very appreciable. I had become so familiar with the list of Wikipedia apps on the App Store that I thought I was going to go back disappointed once again.
However, this relatively new entry caught my attention, and I have to say Ive been impressed. The UI offers the right amount of novelty, and the best features from the Wikipedia website have been deliciously incorporated into the app.
I guess a Wikipedia app has found itself a space on my phone finally.
Feedback for the devs:
• How about putting the article search magnifying glass on the top right corner (instead of the language button)? That way, searching always stays in reach. In fact, reversing the order of the buttons on the top seems to make sense as well.
• Can we have an option to change fonts (and a night reading mode)?
Keep up the good work! :)
