Ahh, but some of us are on iOS which doesn’t seem to
have been updated on the App Store in a while! The latest status update (at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/status#2014-05-monthly) seems to suggest
it’s in Alpha state. Please can someone from the Apps Team give me some insight into the
ETA for a new app, and if some of the new features of iOS 8 could be integrated into it?
I believe the provisional release date is July 7.[1]
In broad strokes, the functionality of the new iOS app is pretty
similar to the new Android app, although I must say the iOS version
has a really cool way of handling the in-article navigation with both
a ToC and a scrollable miniature view of the article. Someone who
knows better can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think much
attention has been given yet to potential iOS 8-specific features.
