Hello mobile Wikimedians,

A major update to the Wikipedia app for iOS is now available in the App
Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wikipedia/id324715238?mt=8

Version 5.3.0 includes a long list of improvements and new features,
including:

   - Get rich notifications about topics Trending In the News
   - Improved VoiceOver support for the visually impaired and VoiceOver
   support added to widgets
   - 支援簡繁中文自動轉換 / 支持简繁中文自动转换
   - Support for auto transliteration between Simplified and Traditional
   Chinese for Chinese Wikipedia
   - Switch to RESTBase endpoint for the Explore feed, resulting in faster
   load times with less network bandwidth
   - Improved Random article experience to make it easier to fall down the
   rabbit hole
   - Use 3d touch actions to save and share links from anywhere in the app
   - Support for Top Read and Continue Reading widgets on iOS 9
   - Show more precise licensing information in image galleries
   - Improved presentation of references and citations

We had a lot of help on this version, with major props to the Android and
Services teams for their work creating the new Explore feed API. It rocks!

And, as always, huge thanks to the volunteers who contributed code or
testing help (and especially the crew that came in person to our
Accessibility hack day). Contributors in this version included: digdog,
josve05a, anirudh24, kotarofujita, amire80, dmcglinchey2779 and eyeino

Thanks,
Josh Minor
PM, Wikipedia app for iOS
