Ratings and reviews

Edit: The App is now completely broken Every "back" input sends you all the way back to your original search, not the page you were previously on, which is frustrating when you are on a trail trying to find an etymology. Also, it worked great for awhile, then suddenly kept autochanging the language to some kind of tamil or sanskrit and had to be manually changed twice every single search in order to find the word in English. No settings changes fixed it, had to redownload the app and reset it.

This app is a great option for anyone who uses Wiktionary and wants a nice interface. I have not used the other features of the app, but it's fast and loads Wiktionary pages really well, which is all I need it for. The only reason I can't give this 5 stars is the search language keeps reseting to Tamil, no matter how often I change it to English. If it would remember the last language used in a search, I'd give the app 5 stars. Edit: Seems to be fixed -- 5 stars

The idea of the app and makes one of the most tedious parts of editing Wiktionary easy and fun. However, I couldn't contribute to Gulf Arabic because the app shows a limited number of languages and doesn't allow custom ones. Furthermore, it shows invalid category error message for Arabic. I also think it should show entries with pronunciation file requests first since users have specifically asked for those. Overall great app and thank you for undertaking the task of developing it.
