The best gets even better! Enhance Wikipedia with queue mode, designed for keeping track of entries you want to read in the future. Add entries to the queue easily while browsing, and optionally save them for faster visiting or offline browsing. Downloading entries for offline or accelerated reading happens in the background while you browse and read other pages, so you dont have to stop and wait for pages to be saved.

Pros and cons of Wikipanion Plus app for iPhone and iPad
Wikipanion Plus app good for
The interface may not be as easy as it should be, but after you master Queue mode, bookmarks and saving pages, it gets pretty useful.
I have it since it was released, and just love it! Simple, beautiful and usefull! Just miss the bookmark sync, but still 5 stars.
My favorite Wikipedia online reader.
Im missing the option to open links in directly in this App instead of the official Wikipedia reader.
Of all the wiki readers this was the most convenient for readability and feature. I was very satisfied with the free version, and only decided to upgrade when the developer informed me this version could save the full page with pictures for offline viewing. Unfortunately this is not really the case. Photos incorporated in the article are not saved. However it might be an OS limitation. One feature that would greatly improve the app would be an easily and readily accessible "save current page for offline reading" and a way to organize folders of saved pages. As it is although you can save for later reading, the process is unwieldy
Best in the store, as mentioned earlier a button for saving the current article directly would be helpful but there are ways to save without this although the convenience is limited. Images are save but only as thumbnails in the article.
Queque feature works well and this is more or less as advertised.
Youll have to decide for yourself if it is worth $4.99.
best program in a competitive market. I wanted to say that this program is one of my favorites and I tried the rest. Im buying this even after I bought iwiki
Some bad moments
Max. 99€ not more than that, nathing defferent between free version and $499 one.
This app is bull i understood and did research that i can search up anything anywhere turns out i cant i thought thats what they ment by offline??? I waste 5$ on this when i could of got the free version which is pretty much the same :( disapointment!!!!!
This app is lacking one feature all others have, tabbed browsing. Would be a 5 star otherwise.
queued articles automatically dissapeared then you click on article, was read article completely or not. its dumb.
While I *LOVE* my free Wikipanion app now for yearrrrs (I always recommended it to others over that weird Wiki-version app), I dont understand the paid version? I downloaded it thinking that it will be available offline (like my Miriam-Webster Dictionary app)...and its not working for me offline. Please help. I dont understand. If that is not the purpose, I want a refund.
