Encyclopedia provides a complete copy of the contents of Wikipedia on your iPhone or iPod Touch. No internet access is required to search and view articles—you can browse everything without any internet or data connection.

The app is the fastest and simplest way to browse Wikipedia. It works in a plane, on top of a mountain, in a tunnel, and when you're abroad. It's been featured in documentaries, and in publications like the New York Times and ZDNet.

Encyclopedia also allows you to install multiple databases on your phone: you can pick from our supported Wikipedia, Wikitravel and Wiktionary databases. (The most popular one is, of course, the complete English Wikipedia.)

When you first launch Encyclopedia, you will see a copy of France Wikitravel, and have the opportunity to download additional Wikipedia databases, such as English Wikipedia. (You need a wifi connection for these downloads.) The English Wikipedia will occupy about 2.6GB of space on your device. Regular updates to the Wikipedia databases are provided.
