Ratings and reviews

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

Once you click any word branching off from the initial word you've selected via search, you are unable to immediately view previous pages. Pressing the back button (at any time) takes you back to your latest search results, not the previous page. This is very inconvenient, especially when you are pressing multiple links, when tracing a word's root origin for example. I recommend using "EveryWiki: Wikipedia++" as an alternative app. However, it doesn't allow page editing.

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.
