In Wikipedia they know that the future is mobile and, after the reissue of their application for Android It is the turn of the iOS In this way, users who wish to do so have a new tool to consult comfortably and anywhere all the information in this encyclopedia edited by the user community itself The good thing is that it has not only received a face cleanup, but there are also new features to harness the wisdom of the Internet and bring the wisdom of the user himself.
This is a complete review of the official application of Wikipediafor iPhone and iPad And we say complete because those responsible have taken care ofcreate it from scratch to get the most out of it in terms of functionality. In this way, and always keeping in mind the speed and agility, it is now possible to check how it takes less time to start and load the articles and the photographs in them. However, what is really striking is the possibility of editing the articles.
Thus, the main novelty is that it is no longer just a consultative tool, but the user himself can edit the information from Wikipedia as if you were in front of the computer.A good way to provide wisdom at any time and place, without the need for a computer, either through iPhone or through the comfort of a larger screen like that of the iPad An issue that will surely be reflected in the near future with more editions of this encyclopedia. Even more so if one takes into account that it is not necessary to sign or have a user account to provide data.
But in the visual aspect the new application also has something to say. Thus, we have removed the superfluous elements to increase the readability of the texts of Wikipedia Something This is especially noticeable in the disappearance of the contents menu, which is now hidden behind a button in the upper right corner. This allows the user to quickly access it and any part of the text where it is, displaying it by simply pressing the hide/show button.
Other novelties brought about by this revision of the official application of Wikipedia is to show a history of pages visited, quickly and easily finding the last articles read and consulted to review any data. In addition, now the user can download parts of the encyclopedia, storing pages and articles to be consulted when no Internet connection is available . An extra point for trips and displacements in which the network is not always available. Closes the news the translation of articles that are not in the mother tongue of the user. A process that is carried out comfortably in the same application.
In short, a most remarkable update. And it is that those responsible have been in charge of redoing the application from top to bottom to improve it both visually and functionally, with the novelty of even editing the texts even if you don't have a user accountThe new version of Wikipedia for iOS is now fully available free via the App Store
