Description

This is an application that displays Wikipedia and its sister projects in full-text search by language. In the Wikipedia site, articles matching the search results are displayed. In this application, it is easier to find the item you want to know if the keyword is ambiguous by first displaying the list of articles including keywords.
Currently you can search Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wikibooks, Wikiquote. When searching without entering keywords, lists are displayed randomly for one screen. You can display the number specified by one search and add results until it exceeds 100. When the specified number is set to 0, it becomes automatic with the screen size. In addition, you can bookmark an article for each language, and you can refer to the search history up to the last 50.

Version 5.29

I added support for iOS 14.4.
Burmese was picked up 10th in the language selection menu.
As of February 1, 2021, the language selection menu when installing the app has been changed in descending order of the number of downloads, except for Burmese, among the top 50 languages, and in descending order of the number of articles thereafter.

Good 👍

This app is a nice interface/wrapper to the official website.

I see one thing that should be improved. When you type something in the search box, you have to press the x button to the right or delete the previous search terms manually by holding down Backspace.

Can the existing search terms be automatically highlighted when you go back to the search screen so that you can just start typing without having to erase the previous search terms? That would be ideal. Thank you 🙏🏼

uh

this is a cool idea but I don't think anyone is going to use some of those super obscure languages
