See Also vs Lirum Wiki

See Also is the typography-first Wikipedia reader in the spirit of V for Wikipedia. It's built for one thing: the quiet pleasure of reading the world's largest encyclopedia, beautifully. Most encyclopedia apps treat articles like web pages. See Also treats them like something worth reading. It features real typography, generous margins, and a layout that gets out of the way so the writing can do its work. TYPOGRAPHY THAT RESPECTS THE TEXT • Five hand-crafted reading styles: Classic, Almanac, Field Guide, Broadsheet, and Nocturne. Switch between them with a live preview as you choose. • Book-style first-line indents, balanced measure, and considered line spacing. • Light, Dark, or automatic appearance for any time of day. • Dynamic Type and accessibility support throughout. READING, NOT BROWSING • A clean article view, not a wrapped mobile website. • Collapsible "Quick facts" and data tables that stay out of your way until you want them. • A full-screen photo viewer with pinch-to-zoom, pan, and swipe-to-dismiss. • Bookmark anything; your saved articles keep their images for offline reading. A MAP OF WHAT'S AROUND YOU • Discover articles about the places near you on an interactive map. • Wander a city and read its history where it happened. YOURS, AND ONLY YOURS • No account. No ads. No tracking. No analytics. • See Also has no servers and never phones home; it talks directly to the encyclopedia's public API and nothing else. • Your bookmarks, history, and preferences live only on your device. · · · Article content is from Wikipedia, available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license (CC BY-SA).

Import Wikipedia and OpenZIM archives from Files, iCloud Drive, network shares, or external drives, or download them straight from the built-in Kiwix catalog.

Answers are grounded in the very article on your screen, including its sections and infobox. On supported devices, choose Apple Foundation Models or a curated library of validated local models — Gemma, Llama, and more — including multimodal models that can discuss an attached image or voice note. Your questions, answers, and article text never leave the device. ONE APP, EVERY SCREEN Lirum Wiki is a native SwiftUI app, not a web wrapper. Reader tools fold into elegant sidebars on iPad and Mac, search stays within reach in any orientation, and your library, bookmarks, and themes feel at home on every device you own. A note on big downloads: transfers on iPhone and iPad run in the foreground, and Lirum Wiki preserves resumable progress if the app is interrupted.
