Hi everyone,

We're excited to bring you an updated version of the Wikipedia Android app, now available on the Google Play store [1]!  Here are the highlights from this release (or browse the complete change history):

- The Explore feed is now fully customizable! Access the customization screen from the overflow menu in the feed or in each card, and make the feed your own: enable or disable the types of cards you want to see, and rearrange the order in which they are shown.
  
- New and improved Randomizer: tap the Randomizer card in the Explore feed, and swipe through random article previews from Wikipedia, without navigating to the full article right away. Try it out!
  
- On This Day: the Explore feed now contains cards with a selected historical event that happened on the current day of the year. Tap the card to see a full-screen view of all events from history that occurred on this day.

- Black theme: we've heard your feedback, and added a black theme in addition to the current light and dark themes. Perfect for AMOLED displays and nighttime reading, this provides a fully black background throughout most of the app.

- Plenty of minor enhancements and bug fixes.


[1] For devices without Google Play services, you may download the app directly.

Cheers,
