LEARN A LANGUAGE

TEACHERS AND STUDENTS

Latest reviews of WikiBots Talking Wikipedia app for iPhone and iPad

THE FONTS ARE MUCH TO SMALL!
THIS WOULD BE A GREAT APP PROVIDED THAT THE FONTS WERE REALLY MUCH BIGGER OR AT LEAST SCALABLE! AND THE CHINESE OFFERED HERE IS, FOR WHATEVER REASON...CANTONESE!?! WHICH IS ONLY SPOKEN IN THE PROVINCE OF GUANGZHOU IN SOUTHERN CHINA. WHY THERE IS NO MANDARIN...THE NATIONAL LANGUAGE OF CHINA...REMAINS A MISTERY! BUT FOR THAT, IT IS A NICE APP!

❤️❤️Nice Wikipedia App by Glitter Love Crush 87
I love Wikipedia and Wikipedia apps.But you guys only put in 23 languages.
No sound on iPad2
The bot is not making a sound when reading. I see the subtitles but would love to actually hear him read. Sound is turned on fully and I hear, for instance, learning bots. But not this one....
Love Love it!!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic! Fantastic fantastic fantastic! Cant get no better than that. It is so cool I love it! I love to use it to discover things that I am not sure about or just want clarity.
Hmmm
Doesnt respond to my voice? Is it supposed to answer my question by a verbal que or must I type it in? Wikibot said to ask so I thought it would just answer back on my iPhone 6- but nothing !
