Lirum Wiki

Lirum Wiki puts a complete offline encyclopedia on your Apple devices. Bring your own OpenZIM (.zim) archive from Files, iCloud Drive, an SMB or NAS share, or external storage, or browse and download an archive from the Kiwix catalog. Lirum Wiki streams even very large archives into protected app storage with clear progress, pause, and safe resume. READ WITHOUT A CONNECTION Once an archive is stored, reading, article search, bookmarks, PDF export, and article AI work locally. No account, advertising, analytics, or telemetry is included. BUILT FOR REAL WIKIPEDIA ARCHIVES • Open full OpenZIM archives directly without conversion or extraction • Import from Files and connected File Providers • Browse the multilingual Kiwix catalog and download archives • Pause and safely resume large imports and downloads • See archive language, date, article count, media count, and index details • Search by title or full text, with snippets • Open internal links, images, styles, and math from the archive • Export an archive back to Files, NAS, or external storage A READER THAT FEELS AT HOME • Five reading themes, each with light and dark appearance • Adjustable article text size • Find within an article • Random article and archive home shortcuts • Copy article text, share a page, or export it as a PDF • Folder-based bookmarks with portable backup and restore PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE ARTICLE CHAT Ask for a summary, key facts, an explanation, or a study guide based on the article you are reading. On supported devices, choose Apple Foundation Models or an optional local Gemma model. Article text, questions, and answers stay on the device. AVAILABLE ACROSS APPLE DEVICES Lirum Wiki is one native SwiftUI app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. Archive importing and reading are currently available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The Vision Pro app is an early companion while the upstream Kiwix libraries add visionOS archive support. Large archive transfers on iPhone and iPad must remain in the foreground; Lirum Wiki preserves resumable progress if the app is interrupted. Lirum Wiki is an independent OpenZIM reader and is not affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation or Kiwix. Wikipedia and related marks belong to the Wikimedia Foundation.
