Description of Wikipedia

The best Wikipedia experience on your Mobile device. Ad-free and free of charge, forever. With the official Wikipedia app, you can search and explore 40+ million articles in 300+ languages, no matter where you are.

== Why you'll love the this app ==

1. It's free and open

4. Use it offline
Save your favorite articles and read Wikipedia offline with “My lists“. Name lists as you like and collect articles across different languages. Saved articles and reading lists are synced across all your devices and are available even when you do not have internet connectivity.

5. Attention to detail and night mode
The app embraces Wikipedia’s simplicity and adds delight to it. A beautiful and distraction-free interface lets you focus on the essential: reading articles. With text size adjustment and themes in pure black, dark, sepia or light, you can choose the most pleasant reading experience for you.

I prefer the app over the web page of Wikipedia. Great, does the job perfectly and is really easy to use.
Thomas Lunsford
Please provide a home button in the app. It's many clicks to get home currently. EDIT 9/2023: Reducing by a star in hopes of getting attention to how difficult it is to get Home in this app.
Cedar Rosenfield
Decent app, but there's a prominent "save page" button on the screen, and absolutely no way to access your saved pages. What is this even for?
M AH
Ever since I downloaded the Wiki app, I have been absolutely impressed. I only just found out you have more than I app, which I feel I don't need. My PC died some time ago, and I only use Wiki on my cell. I read many reviews, both positive AND negative. But I'VE NOT experienced any of the negative issues that the whiners are crying about. (Must be iPhone users!??) 5 "flippity" stars from me, Folks! 🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟

Such a helpful app! And for me it would be more helpful if it has voice reader with it to listen to off-line (saved) articles while engaged in other task.

I have had zero problems using the app, nothing over the top, just a decent, functional and stable Wikipedia app.
Pritish Ranjan Das
Everything is pretty good, just a bit of an advice it should have a kid's mode or parental control's feature. Other than that it's best for learning making school or college project's...

Everything was fine and I really liked the UI. But one thing : I can't zoom in picture shown in the article without automatically goes to the sides. I wonder if it's my device or the app. It really would been helpful if this problem is fixed. Another: why do talk page is called talk page and not discussion page? It make my mind is unused to the design experience of bringing my mind to talk page without feeling dizzy in what way that it is titled "talk".
Deebo
Well designed and easy to use. I think one of the few things it's missing is some updated home screen widgets, mainly ones that have an image of the day or a snippet of a featured article. Opening a new tab also takes you to the regular Wikipedia home page in the browser, which is fine. But it doesn't have a dark theme so if you're using the dark theme, it won't match.

This app is amazing. After installing this app I read more. I have only one recommendation that it would be better if the widgets were more developed.
Christopher Lutz
Complex and obscure compared to plain browser. Why abrupt rapid font size changers when trying to edit? Why no "visual" vs "wikitext" choice when viewing diffs?
Abdul Wahed
This app is very unique. Anyone can be satisfied throughout this app. There is a feature that allows a reader to read articles offline by categorizing them and this feature make me pleasant.
Robert Penny
EDIT: A workaround seems to be that you must first load any saved article while online, after which all saved articles can be read offline (even if the app's cache cleared). Can no longer read downloaded articles when offline! Please fix this immediately!
Muhammad Khalid
The Wikipedia application stands as an unequivocal paragon. It functions as my paramount reservoir for veracious enlightenment across an expansive spectrum of subjects. Its accessibility, dependability, and perpetual enhancement render it an imperative instrument for individuals with an insatiable appetite for erudition.
Anjal Jaiswal
It's good it's free and it can almost tell articles for everything. You can type Any thing and you will surely get that article. It helps in school work also and for general knowledge 😃☺️🥰. I recommend this app . Yet there is one problem 😕😔 whenever I go to make a account it doesn't accepts it and says 'many people don't do anything but this happens '.Add highlighter, zoom feature and also make it in laptop mode please ☺️ because I want to use Wiki on My laptop 💻
Matthew Perry
I've enjoyed and supported Wikipedia over the years. However, due to Wikipedia's manipulation of Andrew Huberman's article, I will nolonger be contributing to Wikipedia. I am grateful to Wikipedia for the content it has provided me. I'm much more grateful to Andrew Huberman for what he has provided the world. And I don't condone their actions.
Soni Jas
We got a project in school for the research of Chandrayan 1, Chandrayan 2, and Chandrayan 3. And this application was my only hope, it gives us in-depth knowledge of a particular topic. I loved the concept of themes, we can't use light theme for extended periods, but we can switch it to dark mode, impressive! If a word is confusing me, I would just double click and the definition will be under my fingers. Definitely useful application, you should download this. Thankyou very much for this app...
Dale Heywood
Mint! The save feature is excellent and it's customisation of settings is actually simple. It would be nice to let us that use a VPN actually able to edit pages instead of disconnecting >.<
