Thanks, Steven. This app is a good summary of many usability improvements that would help the overall Wikipedia experience. It is certainly nice to see others doing it on their own.
Some of these improvements will make their way into our mobile apps and site over time.
I suppose the popularity of this app is a vote of confidence that such improvements are a good idea!
I will talk with Tomasz about possibly contacting the developer.
Thanks for sharing.

I was browsing the Mac App Store the other day and was slightly surprised to see that a desktop Wikipedia (which *isn't* fully offline) is in the top 200 apps bought.

Have we ever made a connection with this developer? They also make an offline version of this and one for WikiTravel.
