The app embraces Wikipedia’s simplicity and adds delight to it. A beautiful and distraction-free interface lets you focus on the essential: reading articles. With text size adjustment and themes in pure black, dark, sepia or light, you can choose the most pleasant reading experience for you.

I've used and enjoyed this service for years now, so to see it become an actual app instead of a web window or tab, is definitely a step in the right direction. I'm genuinely going to enjoy using this app. I literally have the world at my fingertips.

It's a good app, but the editor can be glitchy and pages sometimes take a lot of time to update themselves when I publish an edit.

In dark mode, even though the image dimming option has been deactivated, images in the article are still dimmed. Additionally, some images cannot be zoomed; despite being online, it says “Gallery view not available offline.”

When you open an article, it opens in Wikiwand (if you have a plugin), which is absolutely useless, as if you want to see, for example, athletes results or medal records, it is invisible, due to almost white font. Why not stay with a classic Wiki? Fix this problem!!! It is useless.
