One of my top #10applications
Rates in my list of best apps ever and I always have it handy for reference and reading 📖 … thank you Wiki … love your work ✅
Wiki
My everything 🔥🏆
Would you ever add a “feed” feature?
The app is great for finding specific pages when searched for, but would you ever consider adding a “feed” feature which provides articles related to the user’s current searches? Possibly in a scroll-down fashion. This provides more directed content than the “Random article” feature, and the “On this day” feature.
Application Will Not Open
The app won't open, so you might want to check that.

Excellent App, should be prescribed for all schools for the start of a school day for 30 minutes to see the fantastic world we live in!!
Most marvellous rabbit-hole.
Once one dives into the Wikipedia rabbit-hole, and starts clicking on links, one is unlikely to emerge for a long time. Kudos to everyone involved.
Brilliant
My favorite app.
No tabs
Why does the iOS version of this app not have tabbed browsing?
