A lightweight Android app for reading Wikipedia articles distraction-free. Supports light mode, dark mode, Material You dynamic colors and 300+ Wikipedia languages, with a customisable simple interface
Features
- Fast loading: The article text is loaded before anything else, so you can get to reading, quick
- Feed: Read the article of the day, find trending articles and get up to speed on the news with the Wikipedia Feed
- Article image: View an image of the topic from its Wikipedia page. Click on it to enlarge it and view in full-screen
- Random article: Feeling lucky? Click the random article button to read a random article
- Choose your language: Choose from over 300 languages on Wikipedia
- Save articles: Download articles to your device for offline reading
- One-handed use: Use the floating action buttons at the bottom for a complete one-handed experience
- Lightweight: The app starts instantly, and works smoothly
- Material Design 3: Designed according to the latest Material Design 3 guidelines
- Smooth animations: Smooth and fluent animations
- Customizable colors: Choose from light/dark themes and customize the Material 3 color palette
- Customizable font size: Choose your own comfortable font size
- Data saver: Save your limited data plan by loading text only
- Math expressions: View properly rendered mathematical expressions for easily reading mathematical articles
WhatsNew:
v1.10.2
Bug fixes:
- Fix pure black dark theme not working when dynamic theme was selected
- Fix article sections becoming unusable for some articles
Improvements:
- Drastically improved article handling
Hint: This app is available in both, F-Droid Main and IzzyOnDroid repos.
Anti-Features: TetheredNet(This app is bound to a certain network service):
⇒ The app requires a connection to Wikipedia, which cannot be replaced.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
