MOST IMPORTANTLY
Contains every article in the Wikipedia database of your choice. English database size comes in around 4GB, other languages around 2GB or less. Why so big? We dont skimp. Its all there, tables of contents, links, and every single article and redirected search term. This is a meticulously pruned and compressed data set. We feel it is the right compromise between size, availability, speed, and ease of use. There are no images for articles until they are loaded with an internet connection available.


OUR FANS!
"It’s not the only app to do it, but it is the best." - The Next Web

"This is a superb resource. Its the main reason I bought an iPad." - Frank Athol

"Greatest app for medical students! Always improving, getting faster and easier to use! Now even caching pictures and tables!" - Parkinsonism

HOW DOES IT WORK?
1) When you first buy the app, youre prompted to download
the data dump over wifi. This takes between 3 and 4 hours, so follow the instructions and then go grab some lunch.

2) You now have every Wikipedia article on your device. Use it wherever you are, you don’t need an internet connection.

3) Your purchase allows you to initially download the Wikipedia data dump and then also download it again once after that for free. After than a $1 in app purchase will be required to cover the hosting cost of such a large and rapidly transferred file. Updated dumps will be available shortly after Wikipedia releases them, this usually occurs once every month or so.
