Top Pcmac Reviews

Most used app all-time

By BKing12 (Pcmac user)

I’m a person who reads at least 3 Wikipedia articles everyday, even if it’s just random things that come to my mind. I got an iPhone 3GS in 2009-my first smartphone- and this app was one of the first apps I downloaded. I can proudly say I’ve used this app daily for a decade now and still going!! This was the first Wikipedia app ever made for the App Store and I’d say is arguably the best. I’ve tried the others and even the official wiki app- I never made the switch from this app. Thank you so much Robert Chin for creating the first Wikipedia app on the App Store and for making Wikipedia on iPhone a smooth process. I’m not sure how much attention your app gets anymore ever since the official wiki app came out, but I really hope you see this review and realize that you created one of the better functioning and most essential applications to hit the App Store during its early years. And again, this app is still a daily use for me. Still functioning quite well.
Perfection

By ingot Lipe (Pcmac user)

Update 1: This app is so amazing! It is literally easier to use this app than wikipedia itself (and Wikipedia has one of the finest UIs out there) By the way, I would not use this app half as much if it were not for its spectacular app logo -- it's design perfection makes it no less appealing than the forbidden fruit that just beckons you like a neighboring paradise to want to click on it! Original: This app is wonderful! I was looking for a quick way to access Wiktionary, and until this app, I had to open chrome, go to wiktionary, then search. Now I can just 3D touch to search directly! From 3 steps to 1 ! And when it has to do with looking a word up, anything to help fight the troublesome burden of inertia is sweeter than the first sips of honey-laced port wine Thanks for the app
Why’d you change the app color?

By MP0023 (Pcmac user)

I’ve used and loved this app for at least a decade now and it lives on my home screen. Just noticed the color of the icon changed which seems trivial but is really unpleasant to look at now 🙁 Actually considering switching apps so I don’t have to see it anymore, please change it back Edited to 3 stars after developer response: Hey Robert, thanks for the response. That’s a shame, but I understand. Maybe the Plus version could be differentiated by having a plus sign added into the logo for example, or maybe even the colors of the plus and free versions could be switched 😏 I’m sure you have bigger things to attend to though, thanks for developing this for a decade! That’s kind of a cool accomplishment.
Great functionality but some drawbacks

By Bait30 (Pcmac user)

This is my favorite Wikipedia reader app on the App Store. It feels very simple yet very well rounded. Tables, pictures, external links, etc. all work well. The two main drawbacks is that there isn’t an option for white text on black background and that it can get slow after a while. It seems like every 3 or 4 months, it takes almost half a minute to get the app running at normal speed. So I delete the app and redone load it and it works again. Fixing those two things will bring this up to five stars for sure.
