Editing difficult
It is hard to work in the editor facing areas. You can only have one tab open at a time and navigating to talk pages and other behind the scenes pages is difficult. Easier to just use the desktop mode
Knowledge bible
All can gone but this app is a must for knowledge seekers...
Exertanal links
Everything is going well for the site and app but the only thing I think should be added is the external link tables you have at the bottom of desktop to mobile. If that can be added, that be grateful if you. Thanks
Great!! Bbbbbb
Fantastic app, can access information at the press of a button. Highly informative and vetted, Wikipedia is my go to when I need to know something.
Continuing to improve
Each version seems to be more stable and well thought out than the last.
Excellent app
I use the Wikipedia app everyday. I click wiki links in any other app, be it Safari, Twitter or Facebook and the Wikipedia app opens immediately. Really fun and expected navigation.
Helpful app
As It was proven Wikipedia is one of the best free information provider, I love it
You used to be good.
This app used to use little to know data. Now it's a sinkhole that runs up my monthly bill. New isn't always better. I literally loaded a page and it was 50mb gone. That's atrocious. You really need to fix this.
Good
It's a good app. The only problem is that you can't go to the previous page by edge swiping as you normally do on an iPhone.
