• (2024-09-17) Saidu K: Changing my 5 star review from 7 years ago. It's turning into one of those AI cash grabs. It still works, but the most recent style changes have made the extension uglier, when the whole point of me using it is to make Wikipedia look better. The table of contents used to be in a column with a different style to the rest of the content, but now it's blended in with the rest and looks worse in my opinion. Boxes now have rounded corners because developers everywhere have decided rounded rectangles and circles look best. Fonts, themes and other style choices have been locked away until you pay for them along with AI features for $9 a month. It's a shame, to be honest. I've deleted this extension and found an alternative
• (2024-09-10) Orfeas Theofanis: New review: It used to be a great extension. Now it's bloated and keeps throwing pop-ups to login or create accounts. Uninstalling. Old review: Wikiwand is a great interface for browsing wikipedia. The ctrl+click dictionary feature seems interesting, but the shortcut should change or at least be configurable. The default behavior for ctrl+click is to open a link in a new tab, and this extension hijacks the shortcut and disables "open link in new tab" feature.
• (2024-08-24) Marino Friedmann: New update is terrible
• (2024-08-11) Extension must wait a bit if wikiwand site is available in the current network, otherwise redirect back to wikipedia.org
• (2024-08-02) Jon S: They've once again completely changed the design just as I got used to the new version, and my old settings are locked behind a paywall. The AI features are a bad move. We don't need AI on every single website we visit when it's wrong a significant portion of the time. I see no reason to continue using this extension, so I'll be removing it.
• (2023-11-05) Artemy Kozodaev: Отличное расширение. Не работает в РФ, потому что изначальную статью Wikipedia редиректит на сайт wikiwand, который работает только с VPN. Тут спрашивать надо с Роскомнадзора, а не занижать оценки. Отсутствие прямой ссылки на "заблокированный ресурс" не гарантирует его доступность(вспомните опыт блокировок твиттера, когда не работал еще с десяток других сайтов)
• (2023-10-15) Kaustubh Mathur: Great for that wikipedia games too. simple, and clutter free. looks cool
• (2023-09-06) Travis Wohlrab: Used this extension for many years and appreciate the devs' work but the most recent update has pushed way too much clutter to the top of the page. Using a 1440p screen I have to scroll just to see the intro paragraph. The article image is massive. I also don't see a way to enable the previous interface which was much preferred. Going back to wikipedia=old for now.
• (2023-09-06) Steve C: I should have rated this extension YEARS ago. Only here now because for some reason it stopped working completely. Wikipedia no longer reverts to Wikiwand. Hope that gets fixed soon! Dark Mode (why is the default always white with most webpages) is essential to my eyes! :)
• (2023-09-01) Thomas Meyer: Here you have an prime example of what a 5 star google chrome browser add on can be like. Had it for years now and its simply amazing. Thank you alot :)
• (2023-08-29) Shunyu Yang: 减少反复跳转页面查找，牛
• (2023-08-15) Gg Yx: 它会跳转到一个非维基百科的页面，但这也没什么。不好的地方是：与维基百科的原文是不一样的，会缺少一些文字，或标点符号的位置错误。在中文维基百科上。
• (2023-08-05) Maisara Ahmad Maher: It was working fine for years, but I think the latest layout change of Wikipedia has broken the extension. It's like I'm visiting a website without any css styling.
• (2023-08-03) BOED_YT: opera 無法使用
• (2023-07-29) Adam Reaume: Has worked excellently for years, but recently all the images on articles are stretched out horizontally to the page width, making them useless as references. Otherwise, this review would be 5 stars.
• (2023-07-28) Hugo Vesper: Has worked excellently for years, but recently all the images on articles are stretched out horizontally to the page width, making them useless as references. Otherwise, this review would be 5 stars.

• (2023-07-24) Jose Arnel Oliquino: i really love it, it has theme settings that lets you choose different themes for like aesthetic stuffs and it has reading assistant to read for you and i really love it because i can search for summaries to save my time and has automatic translate, five stars for me
• (2023-07-20) Shayne Jones: well, this site is very user-friendly to. work out how to use it o.k. thankyou for making it so esay to download and use a big double thumbs up o.k. cheers.
• (2023-07-19) FsWork Lee: 排版优秀
• (2023-07-18) Ala Baganné: Thank you for spreading the truth unlike Wikipedia.
• (2023-07-18) Paseos con Tim: This extension changes the links from wikipedia site to wikiwand site. So after I deinstalled the extension all links are now leading NOWHERE. Whoever designed it to work this way has done an extremely poor job to put it mildly. I'm extremely dissatisfied.
• (2023-07-08) Lisa Rawlinson: Loved this extension for a few years. Last few days, only the first part of the page is displayed. Couple of paragraphs, then nothing, apart from - 'Oops something went wrong:' Hope it can be fixed? (Version 8.3.2. - Desktop Chrome Windows 10
• (2023-07-04) Chris Wen: Can I fall back to the older version? The new version is not friendly with Chinese text as the text color of links are not unified. Under the same hyperlink, some text are highlighted while others are not.
• (2023-07-02) Derrick Jones: I must say, the improvements and features offered by Wikiwand are truly remarkable! The new clean layout and modern typography make reading Wikipedia articles a delight. The convenient fixed table of contents and quick preview when hovering over links add to the user-friendly experience. The inclusion of text-to-speech in multiple languages is a fantastic feature for accessibility. I also appreciate the effort put into providing featured article summaries and a larger, better media gallery. The ability to personalize colors, fonts, and layouts is a thoughtful touch. Overall, the enhancements you've made to Wikipedia through Wikiwand are impressive and undoubtedly contribute to a significantly improved reading experience. Keep up the great work!
• (2023-06-28) Mike: The version 2.0 is not working any longer. Tons of errors and I can't go back to the old version. Overloaded with features now.
• (2023-06-27) Golium Milk: 太棒了！推荐下载
• (2023-06-17) Davide A.: Please give us back the option to revert back to v.1. I loved the design
• (2023-06-13) Kevin Laffey: After over ten years, Wikiwand stopped working for me today. When I tried to either open it or follow a link to it, I got this: ("Message":"An error occurred and the request could not be processed.","Type":"Service") So, for the first time I had to remove it from Chrome, clear the cache, cookies and browser history, reboot and then reinstall Wikiwand from the Chrome Web Store. I figured getting a fresh installation of the latest version would solve the problem. It didn't. I still get: ("Message":"An error occurred and the request could not be processed.","Type":"Service")
• (2023-05-31) Dan Girgenti: I loved this extension for years but lately the amount of downtime the Wikiwand site experiences makes it completely unusable for me. The inability for the extension to fall back to regular wikipedia when their own website goes down is also infuriating. My only option is to just uninstall the extension.
• (2023-05-22) Daniel Mare: Prefiero la extension de Modern Wikipedia. Odio que esta te lleve a otra pagina diferente (Wikiwand). Modern Wikipedia consigue lo mismo, posiblemente lo hace incluso mejor (modernizar wikipedia y añadir funciones nuevas) y sin sacarte de la pagina de la wikipedia, cosa que me parece estupido y de intenciones dudosas de esta extension.
• (2023-05-10) Jyotirmaya Bhanja: INTERESTING SHI!!
• (2023-05-01) M B: Great!
• (2023-04-24) Emanon Tadano: All new view is such a beautiful! Can I disable auto reload? If I switch to another tab and browse, Wikiwand will automatically reload the page, forcing I to return to the beginning of any half-read articles.
• (2023-04-08) Shi Shen: 较大的词条会有卡顿，对简体中文的支持不太好，不过只看英文的话很棒！！！
• (2023-04-07) Youssef Mostafa: Makes reading on Wikipedia so much easier, design is so good, awesome extension overall
• (2023-04-01) Stoica Stefan: Imi place noul wikipedia 2 deoarece este un site intuitiv si vine cu multe caracteristici, printre ele, modul intunecat.😁😁😁😁👌👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
• (2023-03-31) Art Scinfo: اضافة مفيدة جدا
• (2023-03-31) KOSTAS MIRA: Amazing.
• (2023-03-26) General Info: Not working in Opera 97.0.4719.28. When you click on a Wikipedia link it goes straight to Wikipedia
• (2023-03-26) Afaq Ahmed: Loved it!
• (2023-03-19) Yossef Moftah: I usually don't leave reviews on extensions, but this one's a great exception. This has significantly levitated my Wikipedia experience, from a great dark mode, to its brilliant customisability and clean UI that keeps the content front and center. GREAT TOOL
• (2023-02-26) Алексей Ермолаев: Make it work in Russia without using a VPN.
• (2023-02-26) Vincent Kwok: I usually don't leave reviews on extensions, but this one's a great exception. This has significantly levitated my Wikipedia experience, from a great dark mode, to its brillent customisability and clean UI that keeps the content front and center. The UI refresh just makes the best even better, and I'd even say I enjoy reading Wikipedia much more and even as entertainment with the addition of this amazing extension. I'd give it 10/5 stars if i could xD
• (2023-02-17) Sahil Thakkar: Since when does this have ads? What the heck?!?! Uninstall this immediately. Goodbye forever. Was a great extension until ADS!
• (2023-02-17) Sammybro11: Actually makes reading wikipedia easy and understandable Loved it.
• (2023-02-15) Fernando Fontana: A Wikiwand era simplesmente uma das melhores extensões do Chrome, mas agora é uma b0st4. Depois que eles implementaram a versão 2.0, estragou complemente o design clássico e confortável de ler. Simplesmente matou a extensão. E antes tinha um botão para reverter para o layout clássico. Agora estão forçando a ficar com essa m3rd4.Colocaram uma AI meia-boca para resumir os artigos, coisa que aplicativos de terceiros fazem com muito mais qualidade.
• (2023-01-26) The Non Smoker: A low IQ, hierarchical, heavily censored CJ, now with you as an extension, to monitor your data. Cool!
• (2023-01-26) Laraib Ali: Thankyou Team. You've brought so much joy into my first step of learning! Keep it Up! Hats off.
