Wikipedia for Windows Phone

Wikipedia needs no introduction as it the largest online encyclopedia. There are many apps to read Wiki content on Windows Phone, but the new Wikipedia app (unofficial) is perfect. This is one of the best Wikipedia apps for Windows phones, with a neat interface and many options. In addition to quick and easy access to articles, there are a host of features like favorites, languages, location-based searches, etc.

When you first open the app, you can search or view the article of the day. The search shows instant suggestions as you type.

The app shows the article is a pretty good readable format. You can choose between a dark theme or a light theme. You can also open the links in Internet Explorer. There is also an option to view the previous version of the opened article.

From the article, you can also share it on social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Email it or message it. You can even add it to the favorites list to view them at a later time. The favorites and history list are managed from the app home screen.

Another option available on the app home screen is location-based articles. When you select this option, the app searches for your current location and finds all the articles near your location with Bing Maps. There is also a list view of all articles close to you.

The app also features an offline mode view article without an internet connection. Without any doubt, this is probably the best designed Wikipedia apps for Windows Phone.
