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

beta release, v2.2.146-beta-2016-05-23[1]. This revision contains the

following new fixes and functionality[2]:

* Introducing Reading Lists: In place of the old "Saved Pages", you can

  now organize the articles you browse into reading lists, which you can

  access even when you're offline. Create as many lists as you like,

  give them custom names, and populate them with articles from any

  language wiki!

* Update authentication to work with the latest server changes.

* Add "edit here" to the long press menu.

* Check Wikipedia Zero status on page load instead of on network state

  change.

* Improved Wikipedia Zero banner design.

* No longer force downloading and widening HQ images when on a metered

  connection.

* Numerous crash and bug fixes.

Included in this version are patches from first time contributors,

Michael Basil[3] and Elad Keyshawn[4], and repeat contributors,

maroloccio[5] and Dan Garry[6]. Nice work, devs!

You too can help make it better! Read our getting started guide[7]. We

can't wait for your contributions!
