Wiki Offline 2 — Take Wikipedia With You for Negative User Reviews
✓ Lacking updateI can see the potential (5-star potential) in this app, however it doesn't utilise the iPhone 6 plus resolution. This makes the app blurry, thus difficult to read, which is what it is essentially for. Due to this I'd much rather open the Wikipedia app if I have access to the Internet, if I don't, I'd prefer to wait until I do than use this app. Please update the app to work with the new resolutions..Version: 2.0.1
✓ No databaseI just bought it but the English database is not downloading. I have tried wifi and 4G. :(.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't workStuck on opening page-language settings. Doesn't show any languages....Version: 2.0.1
✓ Doesn’t workI got this recently and the language screen is blank. I owned the old version, which also doesn’t work with the new iOS 12. I guess this was wasted money..Version: 2.1
✓ Wiki offline 2Hi dire friend, why you didn’t answer your customers about their question? Why you didn’t responsibility about wiki offline 2 ? So many people but the application and you didn’t update for new virgin? You want to sale another similar application again? Are you kidding with your costumers or cheating? Shame,shame,shame,,,,....Version: 2.1
✓ Worked for iPhone 7Worked fine but not so up too date. It's pretty hard too download but don't give up..Version: 2.1
✓ Was my favorite AppI used this app daily, recently upgraded my iPhone which requires a database download. Company and app non-responsive. This app should be taken down from the store and purchases refunded..Version: 2.1
✓ Database base won't downloadRecently updated to iOS 8.4. I went to re-download the database and it seems as if their server is not working. Real shame as the actual app isn't bad. However with NO support and no database, the App is utterly useless..Version: 2.1
✓ Update required to work on iPhone XNot working on iPhone X or on iOS 11. Please update the app..Version: 2.1
✓ Not working on ios 11.4Just bought but it didn’t work on ios 11.4..Version: 2.1
✓ Wiki OfflineI can't download files from this program! Don't waste your money on it..Version: 2.1
✓ Fails to DownloadI had Wiki Offline 2 with a previous version and an earlier iOS, but I have not been able to get any articles or re-download the English version. I would either like it to get back to working and download or I would like a reimbursement of the cost of this app..Version: 2.1
✓ Unable to download those 4 filesI just bought this app. This idea is amazing. But after selecting language, it keeps showing '0 of 4 files - About 0 seconds remaining'. If is a bug, please fix it..Version: 2.1
✓ Abysmal download speedsDo not buy this app. occasional download slowdowns to 1bytes-10kilobytes/sec on a 30mbits/sec connection. if you want to leave your iphone out of use for 4 days, then go ahead.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Does NOT WORK anymoreI do not recommend purchasing this app in its current state, I bought this application awhile ago and it worked amazing. However, currently this app does not work. The application will get stuck on the choose language section and does not show any languages for me to choose. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to no avail. Will update rating if creator ever update and fix this issue so I can use the application again..Version: 2.1
✓ No longer supportedWas good. But can no longer update the database and no support from avocado hills on how to fix thIs problem. So stuck with old wiki info with now means to update it..Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't downloadWorked for me several months ago but not now. Had foolishly reviewed my subscription and will now be appealing with Apple. Clearly to be avoided if you value your time..Version: 2.1
✓ Non functional appApp will not load. Stalls at the first ‘Select Language’ page which has no selectable options so unable to progress past that. Waste of money..Version: 2.1
✓ Needs some more work for iOS8With iOS 8, this app will not update the database,even if you are a paid customer. Trying to update,just sends the drop down into the top left corner. Contacted thru email,right after the iOS 8 came out, but NO response from the developer,which is kind of sad,as they used to be very fast rectifying problems. Images are missing in iOS8.1also. Still hoping for an update. Another update: When d/l the database it takes a looooong time. Just uninstalled and reinstalled and the timer goes from 1 minute to 1year and 37 minutes and 27 seconds. Their server is in need of an upgrade. Just deleted the app again for the tenth time and still NO response from the developers . Would suggest you ditch this app until they update. Was a good app, but no updates in months. Sorry, but had to give this one star to enable the updated review. Needs a -10 New update for 2015 Going to the developers website you get a "502 Bad Gateway." What the H..l is going on with this app. No reply to emails,No reply from Apple....DO NOT BUY.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Does not workGets stuck when first running at the language settings. I have an iPad Pro 2 running iOS 12.1.2. It also does not work on an iPhone XS Max. I will be requesting a refund. This app should be removed from the App Store until fixed..Version: 2.1
✓ BrokenAll of the reviews online state that the app is broken, not sure why those don't appear on here. The databases do not download on any of my devices. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, tried resetting my phone to factory and having it as the only non apple app on my phone. Doesn't work no matter what..Version: 2.0
✓ Does not work - Stay awayThis application simply does not work and is awkward to use. No images are downloaded and if I try to do anything with the database menu, as soon as I select it, it shrinks to the upper LH corner and the screen greys. Stay away from this software..Version: 2.0.1
✓ It doesn’t work anymoreEnd of review, I guess. I used to enjoy the app, but when installing it on my iPhone X it won’t load the language database. I purchased the new version, but it does the same - so I’ll be requesting a refund stat. Stay away from it!.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't work at all - tried for over two weeksWill Nault down load-no support! Getting refund!.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn’t work. No supportDoesn’t work and the support link doesn’t work. Don’t waste your money.Version: 2.1
✓ No longer supportedI'm editing my original review which was criticising the lack of update. Try downloading V1 of this app. It's been updated and runs on the iPhone 6 at native resolution..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Doesn't appear to downloadDownloading 0 of 4 files. No progress made or indication of downloading. Fobbed off to the tune of 8 quid.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't workThe database is missing. Crashes under IOS 9. Not much else to say, is there?.Version: 2.1
✓ Great appThis is a great app. Takes a while to load, but once up and running is excellent..Version: 2.1
✓ No updateUse to be a good app. Now it crashes all the time with iOS 9.1 No update available. Use your money elsewhere..Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn’t work on iPhone XI’ve used this for years and suddenly it doesn’t work on my new iPhone X. It gets stuck on the “Language Settings” screen which is just a white screen. Please update the app. Thank you..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not workDeveloper support site is down. App cannot be used.Version: 2.1
✓ Paid $9+ For an app that doesn’t load!This is the very first paid or unpaid app I have downloaded that just doesn’t work. I had a previous version for my iPad that was free and worked fine. I can’t figure out how to get my money back. Maybe I’ll contact my credit card company. Sadly only read reviews after I bought program and I see no’s some others wrote about ‘difficulty’ loading. Shame on the developers!.Version: 2.1
✓ Wiki offlineUseless, could not even find an article on Emilia Earhardt. Rip off.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Web site gone don’t buyYou cannot get this app to load the wiki data any more. I upgraded to the latest version after buying an iPhone X but cannot use it. It never gets past the Language page. No web page means no support and no refund. Apple should remove this app. Wasted my £10..Version: 2.1
✓ Articles are not updatedThis app is great if you like random tidbits of information. However, the articles have not been updated in like 2 years. Plus, there are absolutely no images in articles. The author could at least try to show maybe one or have them compressed and you have to click to see it. The image is minor. The lack of update is very bad..Version: 2.1
✓ No supportI installed the app but it crashes when I try to search or open a random article. I read the FAQs which said this was a problem that could they could sort and I would just have to contact support. I did but no one responded..Version: 2.1
✓ No longer works on iPadThis has ceased working on my iPad under iOS 11. On the iPhone it still works but the data file has never been updated..Version: 2.1
✓ DisappointingI love the concept but I have been unable to get the app to work. It always crashes whenever a search word is entered. My help messages to the developers remain unanswered. I would like my money back..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not work on IPhone 6This is a fantastic app. So useful. However it does not work with iPhone 6 plus. Really hope it gets updated soon..Version: 2.0.1
✓ App discontinued - remove from App StoreThe app can no longer download databases. It is essentially non-functional and really should be deleted from the store. I am disappointed that I purchased it. ***Update This app is still abandoned and doesn’t work. It should be taken down.Version: 2.1
✓ No wayNo way to download the app to my iPhone or to my iPad!!! I've tried unsuccessfully even with the kind help of an (online) expert from Apple. Beware, potential buyers!.Version: 2.1
✓ RubbishThis app no longer works and appears to be unsupported.Version: 2.1
✓ Very buggyDo not buy this app. Constantly fails at downloading database, freezes down to 1bit/second. After you quit and start again, freezes at 'download at 0%'. Floods you with dialogues in some sections. Poor programming. I know, I'm a programmer..Version: 2.0
✓ Don’t get thisApp won’t work Can’t get refund either 😡.Version: 2.1
✓ DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEYJust purchased the App at £9.99 and it does not work. Do not waste your time and money..Version: 2.1
✓ No longer works. Used to be excellent.When you launch this app it just displays a page that says “language settings” with no other text or controls. The app hasn’t been updated in several years, so unfortunately this app can not be recommended. Apple should remove it from the store..Version: 2.1
✓ DONT BUY THIS APPI bought the app (both of them) 2 different versions and both don’t work. I will figure how to get the refund for the $9.99 that I paid. The app doesn’t work..Version: 2.1
✓ Wiki Offline 2Quite useless. Nothing will make it open. Reported problem to iTunes but had no response.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't workDoesn't work at all, just gets stuck on the language settings page. Can't get a refund.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Doesn't workCan't download the files on the latest OS..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not work. Total waste of money and need a refund.Just purchased this app and does not work. Clicking on the icon it only shows the “language selection” step but does not show the languages. Total waste of money..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not seem to work anymoreI bought it twice, for two languages. It does not work at all on recent iOS, just hangs..Version: 2.1
✓ No longer does what it saysNo longer works. You can’t download a version of Wikipedia offline. I’ve written to the company and got no response. Not sure why it’s still on the App Store. I used to love this app. My old review: I use this app nearly every day as I work away from Internet coverage. I find it invaluable and can't believe there aren't more apps like this one. I used to use Avocado Hills' old Wikipedia app and that also worked perfectly but they stopped supporting it and eventually it stopped working (and they stopped replying to emails too). There is another Wikipedia Offline app that I tried but for some reason, despite their claims, very little of what I wanted to look up was actually in it. This app has everything and I am constantly amazed at how much information can fit in my iPhone. It is like carrying The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy. Get it and you won't be disappointed..Version: 2.1
✓ ScamPaid for this app and it doesn’t do anything but open to a language page with no options. Try to contact app developer but like is dead..Version: 2.1
✓ Fatal FlawsWhen and if it works, it's a great app for working offline, especially in parts of the world where an internet connection is hard to find. However, downloading of databases is totally unreliable: I was downloading, paused, and could never resume - even when I bought a second copy of the app I still had this problem..Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn’t work. Don’t buyApp does not work. Don’t get it.Version: 2.1
✓ Probably scamIt doesn’t workout? All I see when I open the app (language setting).Version: 2.1
✓ Rip offDoes what it says BUT you have to have a regular subscription to update the version of Wikipedia you download..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Crashes every timeI had all the same problems with downloading the database as everyone else. I finally got it to work through a workaround, but now every time I try to launch an article the program crashes..Version: 2.1
✓ DO NOT BUY THIS APP!!!!!!I have just bought this app but I'm unable to download the English or simplifed English database. The app says it is downloading 0 of 4 files, with about 0 seconds remaining. It's been like that for over half an hour despite there being a very fast wifi connection. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.Version: 2.1
✓ Not working anymore!As of 2015, it has stopped working! Don't buy!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Didn’t work 14$ out of pocket for a blank appCan’t get a hold of developer via support or anybody regarding this app. Doesn’t let me past the select language page which is the first page you come to has no options either. Very disappointed and want my money back!!!.Version: 2.1
✓ Does not workI have iOS 12. When I downloaded the app it opened a language selection screen with no options or buttons on the screen. Tried to redownload and same thing happened..Version: 2.1
✓ This will jot workThis will not update any more I’m trying to get a full refund. The software is useless.Version: 2.1
✓ The wiki database now available, but missing html table textI purchased this app a few months a ago, as I was looking forward to having the Wikipedia text available offline at all times. However it appears both the free and paid for databases are no longer on line. As of October they put the a copy of the June 2015 Wikipedia database online. The app now works. However it appears all the data in HTML tables has been inadvertently striped (which is a lot of important info). Their older app and database did have all the text including html table data. I look forward to them updating the database to contain all non graphic Wikipedia info not just a subset (3 stars due to missing info).Version: 2.1
✓ Wasted moneyWill not load past the language page,I feel such a fool buying this. Using an iPhone 6S..Version: 2.1
✓ DispointedBought it with the hope it works as stated but very disported. Can't download other languages besides English and font and theme couldn't be customised either. Useless for me!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Wiki OfflineAbsolute trash.Tried many times but it will not download..Version: 2.1
✓ Not updatedPre-dates iPhone 6, and font size can't be adjusted because the dialog box doesn't work.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Wickipedia, off lineTerrible waste of money, won't download. tried many times hoping things would be fixed. no good. loved the original. Please fiX!!!!.Version: 2.1
✓ Used to work greatI had the early version, which was great. Uninstalled the old and purchased take 2. It does not work, and the support page is not available..Version: 2.1
✓ SadStill doesn't work on iPhone X . C'mon everyone. Don't make me sad. (Yes I donate and appreciate the work everyone does).Version: 2.1
✓ Need updateI feel like developers died or something. Can not explain why they never update their app anymore. Cannot even download any language now. Pity cause I paid money and find this app very useful for traveling and life.Version: 2.1
✓ This was a great appI used to love this app... The database download is broken now though, and from the other commenters it seems like the company is unresponsive. Sad to say the least... This was one of my most used apps..Version: 2.1
✓ Will Not DownloadHad it on my iPhone 5 and I loved it. Bought Wiki Offline 2 for iPhone 8 but it just won’t download. Avocado Hills does not respond to questions so I got a refund. Very disappointed about this, especially as Minipedia is nowhere near as good.Version: 2.1
✓ Won't workJust paid £8 for the bundle, won't open to download the database, better sort soon or I'll be applying for refund.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Cannot Download and no supportTerrible app. Used to be fine but few months now it stopped from downloading. Spoke with Apple no support and wrote to the developer AvocadoHills but never responded. I spent my 25$ and time for nothing just trying to see if the other version would work but it didn't..Version: 2.1
✓ Waste of ten bucksThis does nothing at all on my new iPad Air 2 at all. iOS 812 , All I get is a blank white page that should have the language to select ,.Version: 2.1
✓ Fully dead nowThis app used to be flawed but useful, but now it doesn’t work at all (it seems the server hosting the download is down, and has been down for months)... so it’s not clear why this should be up for sale anymore..Version: 2.1
✓ SUCH A SHAME... Very Frustrating!This is my favorite and most used app. HOWEVER... The database download is stupid, broken, unreliable, and NEEDS TO BE FIXED! I have this working on a out half of my i-devices, the other half I've tried multiple times and the download "terminates" about halfway through, and won't let you "Resume" like it's supposed to. DEVELOPER: WHY don't you allow download onto a PC or MAC, then sync of database? Then I'd only need to do the database downloading nightmare once, and sync to multiple devices. THIS IS SO STUPID AND FRUSTRATING!!! Grrr....Version: 2.1
✓ Don't buy this appThis app won't download any data, making it totally worthless. Apple should remove it from the App Store Immediately..Version: 2.1
✓ Database does not downloadI had the first Wiki Offline app. It worked fine on my iPhone 6 with iOS 9.0.2. When I bought the new iPhone 6s Plus the database for the the program did not install. So I went to download it. The files would not download. So I read that for those running iOS 8 and 9 Wiki Offline 2 should be used. So I bought it. The same problem! I then read that one can transfer the database files from one device to another. I had the first Wiki Offline app on my iPad. So I copied those files to my computer via file share on iTunes. Then I plugged my iPhone in and added the files to the first Wiki Offline App (not Wiki Offline 2). It now works. So the Wiki Offline 2 app (as well as the first one) does not download the database and it is not needed anyway as long as one has the first version. So if you have the first version on another device with the files then do what I did then get a refund on Wiki Offline 2..Version: 2.1
✓ Not bad, but...So yeah, no iOS 8 support yet. Has serious menu rendering issue. Dev: Please fix this. I emailed you a couple of months ago and go no response..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Zero stars if i could Apps does not work at allI should have read the reviews before buying this, lost 15$cad. It used to work on my old ipad mini, but now with my ipad air it does not. Waste of tine and money arrggggggggghhhhhh..Version: 2.1
✓ No longer supported?It won’t load but when it did, it was out of date. It appears they’ve stopped supporting it. Don’t waste your money..Version: 2.1
✓ No content updates since February 4I got the impression when purchasing this otherwise nice app that it would stay reasonably up-to-date with Wikipedia content - which is of course modified thousands of times every day. However the English "database" used by the app has not been updated once in nearly four months. Disappointing..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Unable to download updateWhen i deleted the app by accident i tried to install it back but im unable to download the update.Version: 2.1
✓ BAD PEOPLE! Here's Why—I just got an iPad Air 2 with the latest update. I was so pleased to see the download finally work after 2 years of waiting. UNTIL—After waiting around 35 minutes it stopped at 4.11 GB of 4.85 GB left to completion and saw this message: "About 36 years, 0 months, 0 weeks, 4 days, 10 hours, 34 minutes, 22 seconds, remaining." WHAT KIND OF CRAP IS THAT?.Version: 2.1
✓ Downloads not working anymoreVery sorry that this app has stopped working. I tried to update my local database before going on holiday, but downloads have stopped working. I paid for an in-app purchase so will try and contact apple for a refund. An sad it's stopped working as it was a great app previously..Version: 2.1
✓ RubbishPaid another £6.99 for this when wiki offline 1 stopped. Same problem, only an empty page "language settings". I want my money back.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Database will not download.No sign of any progress with database download. Re-install and another attempt on a second iPad with 8.4 will not fix the problem..Version: 2.1
✓ Does not download. A waste of money!Can you tell me how to get this to download? It just sits and does nothing. Otherwise it's a complete waste of time and money. Can I have a refund?.Version: 2.1
✓ AvoidThis app is not working. Showing only “language settings “ blank screen, app support results in DNS error page. Save your money.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn’t work at allDoesn’t work at all. Apple won’t refund. Scam. Out $15. Waste.Version: 2.1
✓ Broken !!Used to be a great app but is now broken and won't download any database Don't buy this broken app.Version: 2.1
✓ It finally works!!!!Now that the database downloads after months of being broken, five stars again..Version: 2.1
✓ Can't use as it doesn't get past language screenCan't even use this app. Developer needs to support sorting out these bugs..Version: 2.0.1
✓ App won't download databasesI bought this app a few days ago and have tried repeatedly to download the English database. The download never starts. An email to the company remains unanswered 48 hours and counting...) so I am suspect of this developers solvency and will be requesting a refund via the App Store. Unless you read of this being resolved, save your money as this app is totally useless if you cannot download their database(s)....Version: 2.1
✓ Used to work on ipad....but i think the developer is dead..Version: 2.1
✓ Non responsive appI am unable to download the database. After 8 hours it sits at 0% downloaded. Refund required..Version: 2.1
