- Lead Images -- When navigating to an article, the app now displays the
most relevant image from the article at the very top, with the image expanded to fit the width of your screen, and the title of the article overlaid onto it. This provides a much improved visual context of the article, and a better entry point into starting your reading experience. (We're even doing face-detection in the image, so that photos of persons are properly aligned in the viewing area)
I've found a number of bugs with this (all on HTC Desire HD, running Android 2.3.5, native browser), which can be seen in:

They include text over key parts of images (images numbered 3 and 4) and badly cropped images (2, 5, 6 ,7),
(Image 1 shows a different problem, with the featured article.)
- Image Viewer -- Tapping on any image in an article (including the lead
image) will take you to a full-screen image viewer where the image may be panned and zoomed.
I found this happened when I tapped on other parts of the page, even when the image was scrolled off-screen.
- Wikidata descriptions in Nearby search results.
When will we get the pins-on-map view back?
