This Wikipedia app takes everything you love about the free online encyclopedia and lets you read those articles and do other things over your phone.

Wikipedia is one of the most popular sites in the world today. Though it is an encyclopedia site that offers thousands of pages on different subjects, it is also a peer site that lets users create accounts that they use to update pages with new information. You should always double check the information that you see and verify that it is correct before using it. Keep in mind that Wikipedia may not have pages relating to the topics you search for online.

This app is super easy to use because it looks just like the full Wikipedia page. Its home page shows you the featured article of the day, which will change the next day. You can use the search button to enter the topic you want to read about, and it will use predictive text to guess that topic as you enter more letters, which cuts down on the time you spend on the app. The Wikipedia app will show you the most relevant page to your search as well as similar or related pages.

Wikipedia gives you different ways to view those pages too. You can change the language settings to view a page in English or a foreign language, and you can click one button to save a copy of the current page for viewing later. It even lets you view a complete list of all the pages that you saved.

If you're on vacation and want to find some fun things to do, open the app and click the Nearby button. Wikipedia will use your phone's GPS and bring up a list of pages relating to things near you. You can learn about the history of a city, sports teams in that city and even attractions near you. The app also keeps a record of your history, which makes it easy to find the pages that you look at recently.

As with the full version of Wikipedia, you may not find pages on all the subjects you want or need. The app may also redirect your search or direct you to a page that does not exist. Using this app though is just like using the full Wikipedia site.
