Favorite client for Wikis BUT... give us a Dark Mode!
Wikipanion has been my favorite Wiki client since I first used it in my iPod Touch, many years ago. The features are great and has always offered a superior experience over other official and unofficial Wiki-browsing apps.
My only complaint is the absence of a Dark Mode. I really, really, really need it., thou I spent many years using the app without such mode, it is mid-2021 and many popular and not-so popular apps (including Wikipedia’s official app) now offer a Dark Mode, thus my eyes have developed an habit for it.
Highly recommended, the Plus version allows to keep track of your browsing and other nifty additional features.

Great app.
Great and useful app. Still wish for a dark mode though. The white background is too bright.
Latest update broke images
Please update the app. The last update broke images where they now display on the left-hand margins. Please fix as soon as possible.
Great even if latest update brought a ton of bugs
I have been using the wikipanion app since it’s been released and it’s one of my most used apps. It is still way better than all the other Wikipedia apps but the last update created some issues with the search function.
Good App but crashes when saving photos
Wikipanion+ for iPad crashes when trying to save a photo. Wikipanion+ for iPhone diesn't have this problem. Too bad it's the former that I had to pay for.
Best in its class
I have been using Wikipanion for the iPad for the last six years and the experience has always been exceptional. I first got it as I wanted some sort of Encyclopaedia and this seemed to fit the bill.
Once I started using it, I found the app more than fitted my requirements. It handles large quantities of entries without even stumbling. I believe I currently have over 2gb of data stored in this app.
The developer is always helpful, should you have a problem, and is quick to respond to any queries or problems. Since I started using Wikipanion, it has been steadily refined. The design and layout are logical, pleasant to use, well thought out and comes highly recommended.

Keep track of your Wikipedia spiral
Ever want to look back at your Wikipedia history? In addition to being an excellent viewer, this app makes it easy to view your history organized by day, queue articles you want to read, and save articles offline that you want to keep in their present form. I always use this app in preference to the web interface. The only minor criticism I could make is that it cannot play or view some of the very obscure file formats on Wikipedia (3D molecule rotation files, ogg audio files, etc.). All in all, this is a great app, one of the few I use every day!

Dreadful
Takes hours to load. Continually crashes. Search function is awful. Just don't do it!
Broken
Just opened this app for the first time in ages. There are no spaces between words in any article in this app. Please fix this as its a wonderful app without this fault
Too Long to Load
Wikipanion+ takes too long, sometimes minutes to load to the last page read or the search page. Otherwise, it's my go-to encyclopedia.
