### 1/5 — Ask Siri

*2019-09-25, version 2.4*

Please get rid of the constant ask Siri logo that constantly pops up now every time one opens the app.  If I want to ask Siri I will on my own.  I do not need to be prompted every single time I open the darn app.  I have stopped use if this app as a result of this problem, and will not do so again until this issue is resolved.  Great app otherwise.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t show equations

*2019-06-02, version 2.3.3*

Don’t bother if you are interested in technical subjects.

### 4/5 — Please Update......

*2019-01-22, version 2.3.3*

Very nice app, but can you please update the app so that it can be viewed in split view in the new iOS? thx!

### 2/5 — Several crashes

*2019-01-10, version 2.3.3*

Disappointing. After saving a number of pages it periodically crashes and I lose everything. Happened several times. The idea is good but useless if it crashes every so often wiping everything out.

### 1/5 — Not worth a penny

*2018-12-23, version 2.3.3*

There’s no settings at all! You can’t set your article reading preference ie text color or text size. There’s no theme color adjustments, you’re better off with the Wikipedia app.

### 5/5 — Great Usability

*2017-09-12, version 2.3.3*

Works just as intended. Very flush navigation and ease of access to previously viewed articles.

### 5/5 — Electronics Engineer

*2016-01-18, version 2.3.3*

In true Wikipedia style, very authoritative and complete in it's coverage on every subject i've investigated. Plus it allows You keep everything You look up at your fingertips.

### 4/5 — Great way to get info

*2015-11-11, version 2.3.2*
