Hi
Last June, the Kiwix team has organised a hackathon focused on mobile
technologies in general and Android in particular.
http://www.kiwix.org/wiki/Hackathon_Mobile_2015
Sponsored by Wikimedia Switzerland, this one week long event has been
the occasion to do a few steps forward thx to the hard work of the 4
volunteer developers.
As a result, we are proud to announce the release of Kiwix for Android
1.94/1.95 which brings a lot of improvements. Among others:
* NEW: Revamped tabs system
* NEW: Revamped zoom system
* NEW: Audio/Video suport
* NEW: Updated "Ray Charles" ZIM demo file
* FIXED: AutoCompleteTextView in landscape mode
* FIXED: PDF & EPUB viewing
* FIXED: Many bugs related to "night mode"
* REMOVED: Gingerbread support
* REMOVED: Share with friends
* REMOVED: Zoom button
Install in one click on your device:

We have also created a new set of tools allowing us to generate and
publish quickly Android Bundle Apps (app+content). These apps are really
useful for users because in one click in the Google Play Store they have
what they want. We have started to use these tools and have already
released two high value apps:
* Wikivoyage in English:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kiwix.kiwixcustomwikivoya…
* Wikimed in English:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kiwix.kiwixcustomwikimed
An other consequence of this bundling software solution is that it is
now trivial for NGO & Companies to distribute devices with free content
pre-packaged on it.
Regards
Emmanuel
