Re: [WikimediaMobile] [Apps] Android Wikipedia beta app release (2.3.148-beta-2016-07-18)

WOW!

You guys deserve a BIG applaud, this is definitely amazing!

We've been waiting for something like this for so long!

I love it, especially the Trending feed.

I'm wondering if there's a possibility to change language on Trending? I
see our results of hu.wiki but I'd like to know what's trending on other
wikis?

Thank you very much for your hard work!

🙋🍸💯🎉

Nearby is far the best and most exciting feature of the app!

It should be improved! ;-)

Re: [WikimediaMobile] [Apps] New Android production release

I have an issue with watchlist too.

It doesn't work with the WP Beta app at all but if I log into
hu.wikipedia.org with Google Chrome with my username I can access my
watchlist but it's really basic.

Watchlist is really not fun on mobile.
