I know Kiwix exists for being able to download the content on a mobile app, but a mobile app would be really handy for editing on mobile, especially given how long it takes to load sites like Wikivoyage, Wikibooks or Commons (from anecdotal experience) on Safari. --SHB2000 (tc) 08:35, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is an app for Commons!

[edit]

There is an app for Wikimedia Commons. Maybe there are also apps for several other projects you named. The problem with the Commons is not that it doesn't exist but that it needs development. For example, it doesn't really have an explore page (like the Main page on desktop) and can't even show or play audios & videos. https://github.com/commons-app/apps-android-commons/issues/ Prototyperspective (talk) 22:26, 13 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

The Commons app iirc is Android only. --SHB2000 (tc) 23:02, 13 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
