Would be a five if it worked with iOS 11

Please update the code.

Still Great

Three years ago, I reviewed this app and gave it 5 stars. There haven't been any updates since then, and that actually makes me happy. Bug fixes are fine, and tweaking to work with iOS updates, but the developer hasn't tried to improve a simple, elegant app by adding or changing it just for the sake of issuing an update. This app does what it was meant to do--make finding and reading wikipedia articles easier and more pleasant. It does it quickly. The font and layout are attractive and make reading easier (does anyone even realize any more that sans-serif fonts actually make it harder to read print?). I can have multiple pages open as well as bookmark articles. The app works well with Evernote. I use this app more than 85-90% of the other apps on my phone. And I am grateful the developer hasn't tried to improve an app that doesn't need it.

"To Learn"

Already time for to say this is greater than I thought so, I being using it for a while. A phenomenal source of learning.

Still my fav wiki viewer!

Saving pages like browser tabs. Attractive layout. Really nice. <br/>(Small issue with drop down search results box blocking the Search entry field. Strange because it looks okay in the App Store app description.).

Superb Wikipedia reader

I use it all the time. Attractive layout, multiple windows, bookmarks and a read later list that shows you the context of the page from which you saved the link. Separate contents, image and table pop-over windows. Works well in horizontal or vertical mode on iPad. A well-thought-out, polished app. The only imperfection I've found is that new page loads sometime hang after a long session of following links. You can't download articles for offline reading. I use Wikipanion+ for that. Overall, though, Articles is my favorite way to browse the mighty Wikipedia.

Has the makings of a heartbreak

Easily my favorite Wikipedia app.<br/><br/>There's only one thing I'd change: when we upgrade to iOS 11, it will no longer work in its current form. So it'll probably only work for a few more weeks.

Best wikipedia reader.

I hope the developer doesn't completely stop updating this, as it is gorgeous, fast, and easy to use. One of my most-used apps of all time.

Great but really needs an update!

This is still the very best iPhone app for Wikipedia, but it really could use an update for the iPhone 6 and 6+. It's biggest benefit it doing multiple tabs. The other WP readers, even when they have other cool features, lack this.<br/><br/>I sure miss the old icon, though.
