No Advantages

The bizarre navigation panel wastes valuable screen real estate, a very puzzling design for mobile devices.<br/><br/>App functions are not intuitive and introduce confusion into the user experience.

Good wiki reader with a few flaws
     
by Roof Pig · June 9, 2015

Good Wiki reader with a few flaws:<br/><br/>1) Large fonts and tables are not rendered properly resulting in the user having to scroll Back and forth to read. <br/>2) In landscape mode, you cannot use the full screen as the left side (bookmarks, etc.) won't collapse. <br/>3) Poor and confusing cross device support. There should be one set of merged bookmarks across all devices instead if a list per device.

Keeping Pace With O/S Updates

Apps need to keep up with advances and features available in new O/S releases. In this case, Dark Mode!

This app will not add new wikis no matter how much I click the add button

Almost perfect
     
by buzzdc · October 12, 2021

This is the ideal Wikipedia experience for searching, browsing, and reading available on the App Store. I have used this app for several years and rely on it daily. <br/><br/> We’ve all read many Wikipedia webpages, where the page contains several words (that have links) that we are personally unfamiliar with. This results in opening of numerous tabs to read these definitions, going back-and-forth between tabs, often getting lost in chaotic tab overload. The app’s QUE feature is the solution to this problem. The app can keep track of your browsing history, only if enabled, which is very handy. All this personal data stays within the app for privacy concerns. Adjustable font and font size are ideal for a good reading experience. <br/><br/>The only feature I would suggest/request is a true dark mode or black theme. Currently the sidebar and the reading page are white/black or white/black. For visually impaired people like myself (low vision), this is difficult on the eyes, in my case unreadable. The only mode I can read is in a dark mode. All I see is a blank page when the background is white. I’m sure many other sighted people would enjoy a true dark mode also. Thanks for your consideration, and keep up the great work.

Great app

One of my most used app on the ipad. Used the free version for a long time, then thought i might as well reward the author for his work. Queue feature in paying version is quite useful too.

Favorite client for Wikis BUT... give us a Dark Mode!
     
by WarumonoMac · May 30, 2021

Wikipanion has been my favorite Wiki client since I first used it in my iPod Touch, many years ago. The features are great and has always offered a superior experience over other official and unofficial Wiki-browsing apps.<br/><br/>My only complaint is the absence of a Dark Mode. I really, really, really need it., thou I spent many years using the app without such mode, it is mid-2021 and many popular and not-so popular apps (including Wikipedia’s official app) now offer a Dark Mode, thus my eyes have developed an habit for it.<br/><br/>Highly recommended, the Plus version allows to keep track of your browsing and other nifty additional features.

Good App but crashes when saving photos
     
by Fekim · February 21, 2019

Wikipanion+ for iPad crashes when trying to save a photo. Wikipanion+ for iPhone diesn't have this problem. Too bad it's the former that I had to pay for.
