Why is the Wikipedia iOS app so bad?

Its slow & ugly. Why does Wikipedia not want to improve their app for iphones?

This question makes an assumptions that isn't true - namely that "Wikipedia not want to improve their app for iphones".  That's patently not true; we absolutely want to improve the iPhone app experience.

Here's why it hasn't happened:  We're poor.  It's that simple.  We don't have a lot of money to pay large teams of app developers.

But take heart, my friend!  I know for a fact that we've spun up a team devoted specifically to this.  In fact, I interviewed one of the fellows we hired who will be starting soon.

So be on the look out for updates and changes.
