About Wikipedia
The official Wikipedia app is the Wikimedia Foundation's mobile reader for the free online encyclopedia. It lets you search and explore more than 40 million articles in over 300 languages, according to the store listing.
The app provides a clean reading view, saved reading lists that work offline, an Explore feed with featured content, and language switching. It is ad-free and free of charge, funded by donations to the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation. The Wikimedia Foundation also runs related projects such as Wikimedia Commons and Wiktionary. The app is a convenient way to read when you are travelling or want fewer distractions than the website offers.
It suits students, researchers and curious readers who want a dedicated app rather than a browser. The Wikipedia apps are open source, and no account is required to read, though you can log in to edit. Like Wikipedia itself, articles are written by volunteers and should be checked against sources for important facts.
Use reading lists to download articles before travelling. Verify important facts against cited sources.
