A number of organizations within the Wikimedia movement including the Wikimedia Foundation publish official mobile apps for using Wikipedia on mobile device operating systems.All are available for free via the appropriate app store (e.g. Google Play, App Store, Windows Store).They can also be downloaded independently of any third party store, from the Wikimedia Foundation's releases website. The app renders Wikipedia articles in a beautiful interface and supports tabbed browsing so you can open multiple articles side by side. Wiki Offline is also available in the Mac App Store for your Mac OS X. The other option for using Wikipedia offline is WikiReader – this is a 3.5” monochrome device with a capacitive touch screen.
