Wikipedia should be sued

I think Apple should be sued just because there is personal information about celebrities that are to be hacked or scammed.

Hate the Update

Dumbed down interface and its trying to copy Facebook/Twitter with this Explore feed. At least the search function still works hence the two stars.

Finally a respectable app!!

I can finally search between 3 languages easily and layout is much more practical.

Wikipedia is awesome

The application furthers the great website

Update

Strongly dislike the latest update. Terrible

Good update.. But..

Good UX update. I like the new look! I just hope you guys can fix issue regarding media content not playing inside the app. Goodluck!

Articles app still stronger

Changing font size, & the ability to save into other apps are why I rated this only 3. It is slowly getting there. Articles app hasnt been updated in 30 months, but still wins for me.

Wonderfully made

Ive always relied on 3rd party Wikipedia apps because the one from Wikipedia havent lived up to its name. But this update is beautifully designed. My only wish is that the font can be made slightly smaller. Theres still some issues with images cropping but other than that, this is a wonderful update.

new vs old version

I really preferred the previous version. I recommend to leave users the choice to use the " non- mobile" version on iPads ... Thank you

Constant crashes with new update

New update constantly freezes and crashes when returning to the app after going back to the home screen, or after the phone goes to sleep. 1 star until its fixed.

Glitchy update

New update is super glitchy. Give it a few weeks until they come out with a repair package before you get the new version. New interface is cool but hardly worth it considering how slow it is.

Major step backwards

The new interface is extremely confusing and difficult to use. Its also way too cluttered. I think its a step backwards and would much prefer the older interface where I could actually find things.

Ugh!

What was once so simple is now a chore. The explore feed is useless and the best feature [Nearby] is located at the end of this stupidly long feed ... Which can take forever to get to ... Ugh!

Old vs. New

The new mobile app is not very appealing in my humble opinion. Too cluttered and too confusing.

AweSomE!

Great app! Just like a free pocket encyclopaedia! You have my support!

Amazing

Its like I have all the information in the world right in my pocket

needs the ability to change font size and load time

Love the 3D Touch quick actions and Peek and Pop! Multi-language support is also improved. This is my default Wikipedia app now. Would be great if I can also adjust font size within the app.

Finally came together. Impeccable.

Foreign language search, as well as language switching, are as intuitive as it gets. Overall very responsive, nothing sluggish. This is all lean meat.

Use it almost every day

For me, Wikipedia is probably the best, most used, and most reliable site on the Internet. Absolutely invaluable.

Get it together

It blows my mind that this app doesnt have tabs. The description for app makes reference to "diving down a Wikipedia rabbit hole". You know what makes it a lot easier to dive down a rabbit hole? Tabs! Let me long press on an article to open it in a new tab! Thats all I ask. Please....please...anyone...hello...please! Tabs!
