Good news, everyone! We've just released a new production version of the Wikipedia Android App to the Google Play Store. Here are some of the major highlights:
- Nearby: Learn more about what's around you by getting links to articles about things that are near your current location. (Location services are used only by this feature)
- Added a one-time Table of Contents tutorial screen.
- Rolled up "page issues" boxes into a link that shows them as a popup dialog.
- Rolled up disambiguation links into a single link that shows them as a popup list.
- Frequently-used languages are now kept at the top of the list, for easier selection.
- Improved page loading speed and data usage by using compression in network requests.
- Updated language translations.
- Numerous miscellaneous bug fixes.
As always, you can download the app through the Google Play Store:
