Slow! by anonymRegardless whether I'm on wifi, 4G or 3G, this is the slowest app on my Galaxy S3. It is faster to open the browser, navigate to Wikipedia, then search there. Not sure how they made such a terrible app experience but I'd love it if they fixed it! 1/5
Bullshit by anonymCnt open on my Galaxy note 2 bcz it taking ages to load single page (except no network issue) 1/5

Doesn't open from google search - Note 3 Kitkat by anonymSearching via Google (at least through mobile Chrome) will bring up a result which you can open directly into the app, which is awesome. Except it only brings up a blank page and error, not the article. Sent in support ticket, never heard back. When they fix, I'll change to five star. 1/5
never loads by anonymWhenever I try to search for something, wikipedia is usually the first result, so I click on it. Because I have the wikipedia app, that means it always loads in the app itself. Then I get loading screen forever, and never get content. In the browser, if I long-click on wikipedia links to open them in chrome, they come up instantly, but in the wikipedia app I always get loading screen forever and never content. Love wikipedia, hate the app. Uninstalling right now so I can avoid this miserable experience 1/5
One of my most used apps! by anonymI love this app and it has solved a lot of arguments! One of my most used apps and strongly recommended. 5/5
The Arch Archive?????? by anonymI'm stumbling around the English language looking for ways to lay a victory garland at the cyber doors of Wikipedia. I'm blown away by the fabulous changes that Wikipedia has made to their Android app. Love the easy-to-use slider, the convenient pullout side tab to thumb through the "chapters". I play with each app I download to discover what it has to offer. Wikipedia gets my highest score. It's possible that the users who give fewer than 5?s haven't investigated thoroughly. Wikipedia is a dream to use! 5/5
Very satisfied by anonymI didn't like the old update, but after the new one, the app is wonderful almost closer to a reader with good interface and log in options to save articles. 5/5
Simple mistakes by anonymI love wikipedia to death. But honestly, I can't stand this app because you can't open (to my knowledge) multiple pages at the same time. Seriously? If I'm reading something and see a link I want to read in order to better understand what I was reading, I don't want to have to leave the page every time. It's such an easy fix. 3/5
The Best App Ever!! by anonymNo words for this great app. As a twelfth standard student myself I regularly need articles for making projects and the urge to need information about day to day things and this is the app that comes through for me. Keep up the great work 5/5
Must have by anonymI m in 11th grade science students pcm derivatives always confuse me I simply go to wash room and check the articles on the topic I want and for studies I recommend for all students. Nice job wiki 5/5
by anonymNice but the odd the thing is that I can no longer expand/collapse the section I want to read. I prefer the version with expand/collapse feature. 3/5
Won't uninstall properly by anonymI tried to remove this app but if I click on a Wikipedia link it brings me to the play store 1/5
Stuck issue...!!! by anonymUsually stucks during search. Dont even try to search... multiple refreshes are required often..!! 3/5
Great app by anonymBut please add "Phone search" feature so when I type something into my Google search bar (you know on my home screen) then result from Wikipedia could show up. That would be great! 5/5
User from Hong Kong by anonymWhere can I select traditional Chinese, it's quite inconvenient that once I selected Chinese, simplified Chinese would be shown. 3/5
Very good by anonymWikipedia is like a huge library in the pocket. :) But i liked its old version more than the recent one. In the new version, it demands the exact words to be typed in the searched bar and moreover it crashes so often. 3/5
Images in articles get deleted by anonymImages in articles get deleted after the phone restarts. I use this app mostly offline please fix it. If the images don't get deleted I will give it 5 stars. 4/5
Excellent source of reference at your fingertips by anonymI'm an avid Wikipedia reader, so having this mobile app certainly helps with this addiction. 5/5
