I love the app, and use it quite bit. All menu items are in the right places, everything formatted right for the phone. The only issue is gradually it's taking longer and longer to load, I assume some kind of memory leak. So I just reinstall the app, and it becomes fast again. No big deal, easy workaround.
Queued browsing and individual control over saved (cached) articles--independant of bookmarks--is why I spent the 5 bucks, why I use this Wikipedia reader the most, and why this app stands alone among the many. These features seem to work perfectly, or nearly so. On the other hand, the UI could be improved. For example, the only access to all bookmark-related controls and screens (and history) is via the button in the search textbox at the top of the page. Also, the "More" option in the settings menu in landscape mode seems pointless. Why not just continue the list of options? Last, a full screen mode/control would be great—like how many iOS Web browsers have.
I've used this app since my very first iPhone (3GS) days and have used it pretty much every week and has worked great. I have several Wiki sites I subscribe to and this app has been my go-to every time. Just this week, I noticed that Memory Alpha no longer works although other sites I've tried do work (I didn't test all, but just a few). It's forcing me to go a Google search rather than using this app which is annoying. Hopefully it's a simple fix and this app can be my go-to once again soon.
Please update the ipad app for iOS 11. You cannot save any photos on the ipad app! Please fix!
Love this app and was happy to pay for it but what's with the new icon?? Brown was the perfect identifier for a reference app and the new one doesn't even fit in with iOS 7.
I love, love, love sharing my the bookmarks with both my iPhone and iPad. However, I do not like the new icon. Please bring the old one back and I will give you 5 stars! Thanks!
Works great clean interface very fast and responsive. What's up with that stupid new icon though? I thought iOS 7 was moving away from 3D design, that shadow effect looks ugly. Otherwise perfect!
Love the app, but the new icon has got to go--or at least change the color to brown. The prior one was perfect.
