Foreign aid
Wikipanion is designed for users from around the world. That's why it not only supports setting a default search language, but also letting you choose a set of additional languages for searching. Then when you search and don't find what you want in your default (or currently viewing) language, you can retry the query in a different language. You can also choose to search simultaneously in both the current page's language and your default search language. Класно!Because Wikipedia doesn't just display the page, but understands it, it will only show the other page languages available from your language settings. Because why scroll through a bunch of languages like Walon and Uyghur when you only want to see Cymraeg, Hrvatski and Shqip?
Knows where you've been
Wikipanion knows where you've been and lets you go back, keeping the last 100 visited entries for your easy perusal.

Bookmarking

Wikipanion handily shows the download status of pages in the bookmarks and history view, as well as the saved pages view, so you can know exactly what is saved onto your iPhone. Bookmarks and saved pages are stored in separate lists so that you can easily bookmarks dynamic page without having to save static copies of them. Quickly delete entries in any of the lists by swiping your finger from the left to the right over the entry you wish to delete, and then hit the delete button. It's excellent!
Sizes that fit
Interactively resize the font size to whatever you please right in the interface. With access to a continuous range of font sizes, you'll be able to set the point size to exactly what you need. But Wikipanion is even smarter: there's no need to continually set the font size on each page you read: the last font adjustments are remembered so that you can set it and forget it.

Sometimes you just need to prove something to someone. Wikipanion includes a handy "e-mail link" feature accessible through the current topic actions sheet for quickly e-mailing of a Wikipedia link to a friend, a link that not only links to the current page, but also the current section you are reading within the page.
