Customer Reviews
Not good
• Full screen images look bad; the entire top is dimmed to ensure close button visibility. Why not place a dark circle behind the X?
• "W" menu looks REALLY bad. Please use standard iOS menus. Please.
• Wikipedia logo on toolbar looks too large compared to search button.
• "Send usage reports" should be opt-IN, not opt-out. It's wrong to bury it & not inform users.
Lightwight
It is kinda lightweight and good appearance, and easy to navigate within the app.
