Ratings and Reviews
Great.
Great app, but the page moves to the left for some reason when scrolling.
A very limited version of Wikipedia
To be honest, viewing WP on Safari is a better experience. The app only allows searching and reading. There is no search history, no saving function, nothing. Just search, read and forget.
Was a better app then is now
Wikipanion used to be a free app with a few extra features than the official wikipedia app.
Those features have now been removed and moved into the paid app.
If you book marked any sites on the old Wikipanion those book marks have now been removed unless you upgrade to pro which is $8.00.
You have to wonder what feature will be removed from the free version next.
Seriously, don’t bother. download the official Wikipedia App which is now free and will stay free and will not remove any features over time.
