TNX for every tinges and just keep doing what you’re doing and kwon that it’s making difference

It’s perfect Tnx for yout hard working to make life easy for usBut my language is not English and iwish you add text to speech to it and translation for words or…. Historical events that we don’t have backgrounds of it

Needs text search function

It overall works well. Can you add a text search option? When you read a long text it is useful to be able to look for specific text or words. The Wikipedia app has it. If you do so I'll give you 5 stars!

Thank you

Thank you

Not working

Download is not working, always 0%

Offer an option to keep it current?

I believe that there is a market for Minipedia users to have the option of subscribing to regular updates to keep it current, rather than just have it as a snapshot in time from when it was purchased. Please advise if this can be or becomes an option.

Out of Date Wikipedia

I paid for the Bookworm XXL version of the offline Wikipedia and it’s at least year old because there’s nothing about the current Pandemic which started a year ago. When one can use Kiwix to download the entire current Wikipedia, I’d least expect Minipedia to be more current than a year old and in fact, Minipedia should improve to note the date of their database while keeping it as current as possible.

Continued Support and updates make it worth it!!

They continue to make it possible to get Wikipedia offline and take the tule to update info. Very well done!

The best app

This app is great because I bon,t have a SIM card, and every time time I want to search something and I bon’t have internet I have to ask my friends, if I can search it up on there phones and thanks to this app I bon’t have to do that. thank you for this wonderful app.

Great app, but

It’s stupid how you have to pay extra to save additional Wikipedia pages. If it’s all being saved to my device anyways, then why not let me pick and choose how many pages I want to save? And why is that option locked behind a paywall. It’s just pathetic honestly

nice

I hate the new format.

This Minipedia app is terrific, but the new format is really bad. Please return to the old layout and choices.

🤦🏽‍♂️👎🏽

U charge for search?!

Recommended for those who knowledge

Well worth the investment if you value off-line immediate access to the Wiki storehouse of human knowledge. When debating a friend, you’ve got the goods to win your argument hands down with this wiki app, Cordially, Stan R.

Good for learning a foreign language

Use XXL Español for learning Spanish. Great resource! Love that it’s offline. Thanks for the update!

XL pack broken with latest update

I purchased the 9.99 XL pack and all was well.
Latest update broke compatibility, “please contact our support to receive a free upgrade to premium”

Followed their preferred method, send several emails, I’m still waiting for them to reply.

Pretty weak.

Not bad, but (i've laid the FULL price), can be improved

All people who are Wikipedia devotès, have all come across, at certain times, those moments when your in need of information from Wikipedia (Wp), and for 'some reason'- you're in a place without a signal or whatever, you just can't get connected, and is frustrating to day the least.

Along comes minipedia which promises to deliver the contents of Wikipedia whether or not you have a signal. How does it accomplish this 'magic'? Simple; it's not magic, it's simply loaded into your device.

I didn't use the free version - everything I would need to use Wp for was not available (surprise, surprise), socu splurged, and rather than getting a piece, I got the whole 'kit and kaboodle', as they used to say.

The time for the whole thing didn't take long (i have an extremely high-speed connection; Gig+), so it only took me a few seconds, but, figure on that (one time) big download as taking some time (it's best to do it before your go to bed, that way, it'll definitely be done when you awake. it's not the length of the download, it's the tediousness, so, i'd rather select 'download', and then - when I've woken up, just finish it, if necessary).

For the full price,I now have the 'luxury'of being able too use Wikipedia no matter what, and that is, for someone like me (and you) - a person(much) moor interested in learning, than playing mindless tripe.- a good thing, indeed.

There's nothing inherently wrong with the so, is more that I think I've been spoiled by using Wikiwand for so long, that I want that clean, simple style incorporated into Minipedia, and hopefully they'll spend time doing an 'Apple' - i.e., making the users... 'experience' as easy, as enjoyable as possible.

I believe they're on the right path, so I'm pretty certain that sooner, rather than laterci be able to update this, and say exactly that, but for now, Minipedia speeds exactly what it promises (the full price version, that is), it just doesn't do it elegantly. Yet.

Too Old

It goes to 2015, we are in 2018

Wikipedia data is outdated

The data seems to have been last updated in ~2015.

Junk

Can't seem to download the other articles

This app is exciting!

I really liked minipedia...
