User reviews

my eyes!

hi, we love this app! but we can't use for long because no dark mode as yet *hint hint*

Third party wikis are broken

Home/random page actions either don't work or crash the app. This is the primary differentiating feature from the official Wikipedia app.

Extremely Biased. No longer trustworthy

Extremely slow. Cannot handle how to display charts at all. Constantly begging for money. Extremely biased. Use Grokipedia if you want more objectivity and facts.

My most used app

I’ve had an iPhone since they first came out and have had this app since the app store’s beginning. This will always be my most used app. It’s Wikipedia at your fingertips, always works, and does what it says it’s going to do.

Hasn’t aged well

I used to love this app but it hasn’t been supported in years and it’s much slower than just using the web version of wikipedia or other apps.
