The Android team[0] is happy to announce a new Wikipedia Android app

following fixes and enhancements[2]:
* Improved image backgrounds in dark mode
* Full roll out of link previews to all beta users!
* Find in page UX improvements
* Fixed link sharing on Gingerbread devices
* Better heuristics for when link preview is shown
