Wikipanion

Μην ψάξετε για κάτι άλλο, τα έχει όλα και μέχρι στιγμής δουλεύει άψογα !

Τέλεια

Την διάλεξα πριν 2 1/2 χρόνια συγκρίνοντας την με αρκετές άλλες. Από τότε αρκετές φορές είδα ότι την πρότειναν σαν κορυφαία πολλά εξειδικευμένα sites και πραγματικά δεν μου δημιουργήθηκε ποτέ η ανάγκη να ψαχτώ περαιτέρω.

Version 1.1 solves my main concern (very large fonts). You can now scale fonts and the use of Helvetica is much more appropriate and readable for the small screen. Also there is a much needed suggest as you type feature and landscape mode. There are still some quirks to be ironed out as Wikipanion is still on the early stages of development. Mainly you get a feeling of overall slugishness. The only other "wikipedia" app for the iPhone at the moment is iWik which is a paid app and offers better formatting for the articles but less features. It will be interesting to see how these two apps will fare in the future and if there is going to be another strong contender (perhaps an official Wikipedia version?). Either way, Wikipedia rocks.

Hands down, this offers the best wikipedia experience!

This app and Robert Chin are clouded by the main stream fake media slanting their narrative way too hard left. No objective data or information. I can’t trust it anymore.

I noticed when I send a link from the app to a text MMS or iMessage recipient(s) or group, the text I add as a caption or info does not show up. Only the link is sent and it looks random in my text feed. Just a quirk I wish could be fixed.

No tabbed browsing. As useless as the Wikipedia app.

For years I’ve used this. I mean, has it been a decade? Maybe! I know I’ve had this for ages. For so long it’s worked better than the actual wiki app when it was new, back when that app was literally a shortcut that would open Safari. Well I’m not sure what happened, but within the last few months it’s basically become nearly unusable. You type something in, it doesn’t register you’ve tapped the text box several times, then it will basically soft freeze for several moments while it decides it’s going to search what I’ve typed. Sometimes during that lag, it’ll show what I’ve searched and the related options but if you press the wrong thing, you’ve set yourself up for a fight. Cause now the app will lag to go backwards, get confused when you type the correct thing, lag some more. No idea what just happened but if a literal link to wiki isn’t working, I have no reason to continue on with it. Nowadays, the actual Wiki app works! It’s been working for years now. So I can leave this behind. But thanks for the memories and help through the years!!!
