4/5Ui a bit messy
Zim is great for offline storing, but the ui took a while to figure out. For example, I wanted to delete a file. Since I couldn’t find a delete button, I went into the files app and manually deleted it, but it still didn’t go away. Then after a while, I realized I had to long press tabs and hit library and then long press the file and hit unlink. My sister, who installed it for bulbapedia because she plays emulators offline, deleted it in one second because she couldn’t figure anything out, and then I had to install it and do everything for her.

5/5The entire internet in the palm of your hand
Even though this takes up 50gb for me, it's much worth it. You can read about the history of poptarts, random grammatical rules, or really just anything on the internet, without the internet. I highly recommend Kiwix to anyone with a few dozen gigabytes to store, especially if they don't have a reliable internet connection. I'd also like to add that if it crashes a lot while searching, switch to "Matches" for your search engine, it takes longer but i find it to be more reliable, more accurate, and crash a lot less.

4/5Great App, But It Has One Major Issue
I’m loving that I have a portable encyclopedia and information resource whenever I cannot get internet, but I have noticed that whenever I play a video that I cannot fullscreen it. I also can’t move to a specific part in the video, I have to replay it all the way from the start to get back where I wanted. This is a terrific app, but this is the only major thing keeping me from fully enjoying it.

5/5Chinese Search Results Missing After Update
I’ve been a long-time user of Kiwix and have found it incredibly useful. However, after the recent update, I’ve noticed a significant issue: searching for Chinese entries often yields no results. This is a major problem for users who rely on the app for accessing Chinese content. I hope the developers can address this issue promptly, as it greatly affects the usability of the app for Chinese-speaking users.

5/5Really nice
It’s a really nice way to have wikipedia with you at all times. The search is very quick and useful. It’s really useful to have, and easy to use. My only note is that there isn’t a lot of detail regarding specifications of downloads and their versions. For instance, I had to look up what Wikipedia 0.8 was. There is some basic information, like number of articles and type of details in the download, however.

          "body": "Even though this takes up 50gb for me, it's much worth it. You can read about the history of poptarts, random grammatical rules, or really just anything on the internet, without the internet. I highly recommend Kiwix to anyone with a few dozen gigabytes to store, especially if they don't have a reliable internet connection. I'd also like to add that if it crashes a lot while searching, switch to \"Matches\" for your search engine, it takes longer but i find it to be more reliable, more accurate, and crash a lot less.",

          "body": "I’m loving that I have a portable encyclopedia and information resource whenever I cannot get internet, but I have noticed that whenever I play a video that I cannot fullscreen it. I also can’t move to a specific part in the video, I have to replay it all the way from the start to get back where I wanted. This is a terrific app, but this is the only major thing keeping me from fully enjoying it.",

          "body": "I’ve been a long-time user of Kiwix and have found it incredibly useful. However, after the recent update, I’ve noticed a significant issue: searching for Chinese entries often yields no results. This is a major problem for users who rely on the app for accessing Chinese content. I hope the developers can address this issue promptly, as it greatly affects the usability of the app for Chinese-speaking users.",

My only note is that there isn’t a lot of detail regarding specifications of downloads and their versions. For instance, I had to look up what Wikipedia 0.8 was. There is some basic information, like number of articles and type of details in the download, however.",
