[WikimediaMobile] Readers Monthly update for January 2018

2018-02-02 Thread Chris Koerner
Hello,
This is the monthly update from the Readers team at the Wikimedia
Foundation for January 2018.

As always, feedback and questions are welcome.

==Discussions==

=== Web ===
* Download PDF functionality limited to versions of Android which
support PDFs.  During our first iteration of the mobile PDF button, we
encountered a number of bug reports for the button not working
correctly on certain versions of Android and appearing on browsers
which do not support PDFs.  We have since limited the button
availability to only include versions of Android and browsers which
support PDF creation. [0]
* New settings page and beta options for the mobile website coming up
in early February. [1] [2]

=== New Readers ===
* New Reader updates can be found at Meta. [3]

=== Discovery ===
The Discovery team provides weekly updates. Here are their updates for
the month.
* 2018-01-08 [4]
