Introducing the Explore Feed: a new way to discover Wikipedia content!
We've redesigned the home screen of the app, which now shows a feed of featured content from Wikipedia, as well as personalized reading suggestions based on your reading history in the app[0]. See Wikipedia articles about current events, today's trending articles, today's featured article and featured picture from Commons, and more[1]. Scroll down in the feed to see featured content from previous days.
Since this is a significant departure from the previous experience in the app, we especially welcome the feedback of our Beta users. Let us know if you see any issues or bugs, or if you have any suggestions for making it even better.
This version includes a volunteer contribution from repeat contributor Amir Aharoni[2]. Good work! You too can help make it better! Read our getting started guide[3]. We can't wait for your contributions!

WOW!
You guys deserve a BIG applaud, this is definitely amazing!
We've been waiting for something like this for so long!
I love it, especially the Trending feed.
I'm wondering if there's a possibility to change language on Trending? I see our results of hu.wiki but I'd like to know what's trending on other wikis?
Thank you very much for your hard work!

Hi Orsolya,
Thanks for the feedback; we're glad you're enjoying it! To change the language of the content in the feed, tap the Search bar, then tap the language selector in the top right corner (this sets the language for all the features in the app). After you change the language, go back to the feed and refresh it by swiping down. You should now see trending articles for the newly selected language wiki.
