Generally good. Snappy and bug-free. It takes a bit of getting use to swipping up from the bottom to bring up the menu, I keep swipping from the left to go back and accidently closing the app. Tables can't be displayed unfortunately, and other advanced things, but that's to be expected seeing it's on a watch.

You'd be surprised that a Wear OS Wikipedia app would occasionally come in handy, but it does. Only minus is the lack of a search history. But this does have images & more font options than the others, so I'd definitely recommend. Update, thanks for adding the faster search option & history. If i hadn't already upgraded, I would've done so now. Much appreciated.

Hi Kam, Thank you for your feedback. Based on your feedback we have added article search history in the latest version of the app. History of all viewed articles including random articles is now saved. History can be accessed by swiping the nav drawer on wearable. Kindly update to the latest version (v3.3) to access the feature. Hope this helps.
