Informations générales
Quelle-est la différence entre l'application mobile et la version web de Wikipedia ?

L'application Wikipedia assure une expérience optimisée et simplifiée pour la recherche et la lecture du contenu Wikipedia. En tant qu'application native, elle permet un chargement plus rapide des articles et une réduction de la consommation de données mobiles. Elle offre également une interface plus uniformisée avec vos autres applications Android préférées. Elle ajoute des fonctionnalités qui ne sont pas disponibles dans la version web de Wikipedia, telles que les listes de lectures qui permettent d'enregistrer des pages pour les lire plus tard, et le partage de contenu et d'images issus des articles vers vos applications de médias sociaux préférées.

Evidemment, l'application est toujours en développement, et ne possède pas encore certaines fonctionnalités disponibles sur le site mobile de Wikipedia, telles que le suivi des modifications, les collections et les notifications.

Où puis-je trouver les dernières notes de mise à jour? Les plus récents changements de l'application peuvent être trouvés sur le Play Store listing de l'application ou.

Quelles-sont les fonctionnalités disponibles sur l'application Android ?
"Fil d'exploration"

La page d'accueil de l'application affiche maintenant des recommandations de contenu à lire. Chaque "carte" du flux représente une page unique ou une courte liste de pages que nous vous recommandons.
 * The types of cards you might find in the feed (depending on their language availability) include:
 * des articles traitant d’événements actuels.
 * Tendance : les articles les plus lus en ce moment (basée sur le nombre de vues total).
 * Article en vedette: L'article wikipédia mis en avant du jour
 * Images Wikimedia Commons du jour
 * Continuer à lire: Lien pour revenir à la lecture d'un article ouvert dans l'un de vos onglets
 * Parce que vous avez lu: une liste brève de suggestions basées sur un article récent de votre historique
 * On this day: events in history on this day.
 * Générateur d'aléatoire: ouvre une fenêtre avec des articles à lire, choisis aléatoirement
 * Aujourd'hui sur Wikipédia: ouvre la page principale de Wikipédia
 * Ce jour là: Evénements historiques qui se sont déroulés ce jour là.

Si vous ne voulez pas voir une carte particulière du fil d'exploration, vous pouvez la faire glisser sur le côté pour la faire disparaître

Since version 2.7.221, there is also an option to "Customize the feed" that allows you to choose which types of cards to show, and show them in a preferred order.

Le fil inclut aussi une barre de recherche pour une accès facile à la recherche sur Wikipédia, avec une fonction " dictée "

Tapotez la barre de recherche Wikipédia en haut et tapez votre recherche L'application vous donnera une liste d'articles Wikipédia à partir de votre recherche L'application cherche automatiquement des articles à partir de leur nom ainsi que l'intégralité de leur contenu, pour fournir la meilleure réponse
 * Recherche d'articles


 * Établir/changer la langue sur Wikipédia

La recherche sur Wikipédia est configurée pour une seule langue, qui est par défaut la langue de votre appareil Android Pour changer la langue, allez dans le menu principal ( en haut à droite ) et sélectionnez "plus" puis "Langue"

Dans le menu en haut à gauche ( trois points ), sélectionnez "chercher dans la page" Vous pourrez entrer le texte à rechercher dans la page courante, et les résultats trouvés seront automatiquement mis en surbrillance et parcourables dans la vue.
 * Chercher dans la page

"Lire dans différentes langues" Dans le menu en haut à gauche ( trois points ), sélectionnez "". Cela montrera la liste des différentes langues pour lesquelles l'article est disponible à lecture.

When you long-press on the text within an article, you can highlight portions of the text, then use the buttons in the top menu to "copy" the selection to the clipboard, or "share" the selection. If you select "share", you will be able to share the selection as plain text, or an image card that contains the text printed on top of the most relevant image from the article.
 * Partager des faits intéressants sur les réseaux sociaux

You can add a page to a reading list, which acts as a sort of bookmark of the pages. You can have more than one reading list so that you categorize the pages in your list. Pages saved to a list are made available offline by default so that you can read it later. You can turn it off, individually for each page in a reading list, if you do not want it offline. You will be able to access Reading lists from the bottom menu in the App's Home page (may change with different versions). You can synchronize reading list across devices. See Synced reading lists
 * Reading List

Go to the main app screen and choose "Nearby" from the bottom navigation menu to see Wikipedia articles about places near you, based on the GPS location of your device. We do not store or track your location over time.
 * Nearby

Tap on the "pencil" icon next to section headings in an article to start editing. Note that Wikipedia articles are formatted using.

Synced reading lists

 * Are saved pages synced with other devices or browsers via my Wikipedia account?
 * The synced reading lists feature is available as of version 2.7.232, released on April 20, 2018.


 * How do I get the synced reading lists feature?
 * Beginning with version 2.7.232, Android app users are able to sync their reading lists to other Android devices they own, as long as those devices are running the latest version of the Wikipedia Android app, and the user is logged into the app on each device. (If users are logged out, or if syncing is not enabled, then reading lists will be stored locally only.)


 * I'm having trouble syncing. What should I do?
 * If you are having trouble syncing your reading lists, please make sure that each device is running the latest version of the Wikipedia Android app, that you are logged into the app on each device, and that you have enabled syncing for your account. (You can enable sync via the app settings menu.)


 * When will synced reading lists be available on other platforms?
 * Reading list sync is available on Android and can sync to the iOS app (versions 5.8.0 and later). Articles may also be added to synced reading lists from the desktop web via the new.

While there are no immediate plans to add the synced reading list feature to desktop or mobile web, we encourage you to occasionally check back for further updates.

Lecture en déconnexion et données

 * Puis-je sauvegarder des articles pour les lire hors connexion ?
 * You will be able to save articles offline by adding them to a Reading list. Articles are made "Available offline" by default. You will be able to access Reading lists from the bottom menu in the App's home page (may change with different versions).


 * Can I access Wikipedia for free with your app?
 * Please note that Wikipedia Zero has been discontinued.
 * Depending on your carrier, access to the Wikipedia app may be done in the normal rate, a reduced rate or for free. This still depends on the carrier's arrangements and you should ask them for details.

Privacy and Data Sharing

 * Does your app track me? Do you use my data?
 * Yes, we do track some of your actions. Sending usage reports can be deactivated in the "Settings". You can access the "Settings" from the top-right menu (three dots) in the main screen of the app. You can disable usage reports by turning-off "Send usage reports".
 * We also have crash reporting to help us fix bugs. This is separate from usage reporting. If a crash is detected, we automatically send reports to helps us find the reason and fix the issue (This really helps us a lot!). All collected data is anonymous. You can disable crash reporting if you wish. This can be done by turning-off "Send crash reports" in the "Settings".


 * What information does the usage report contain?
 * Different data is collected, specifics of which can seen on the event logging page. For example, it records the average delay between typing a search term and receiving search results, or the number of times the Share button is clicked, or whether the font size was increased or decreased. We use a service called HockeyApp to report crashes in the Android application. When you choose to send us a crash (which we're immensely grateful for!), it tells us where in the code the crash originated from (the stack track across all active threads), and other diagnostic information such as the Android version and device type. This data cannot be used to personally identify you.

This is all used to better understand user engagement, and guides us to improving and enhancing the features that the app offers.
 * How does Nearby work?
 * When you click Nearby, the app requests access to your geolocation data, and offers you a list of up to 50 articles that are within 10 kilometers of your location. Nearby doesn't track your location or store your geodata.

Disponibilité et ajustements

 * Can I change font size and background color?
 * From the top-right menu (three dots), select "Font and theme".This will allow you to increase or decrease the text size, as well as switch between a Light, Dark and Black theme.


 * Can I listen to media or watch videos on the app?
 * Yes! When an audio clip appears inside an article, tap on the "Play" button to start playing the audio. When an article contains a video clip, tap on the video thumbnail to start playing the video.

Téléchargement et rapport des bogues

 * I am an Android developer, may I fork your app?
 * Please do. Our repository is available on . Please check details for contribution.

Can I download an APK version to install the Android app without a Google Play Store account?

APK files (for both the beta and stable versions of the app) are available on releases.wikimedia.org. Note that the app won't auto-update when installed this way.

L'application est-elle diponible sous F-Droid?

Yes, as of August 25, 2015, there are updates to the F-Droid version again.


 * Where do I report bugs?
 * If the app crashes it will automatically report us, if you have enabled crash reporting.
 * If you see another bug (and not a crash) or have a suggestion or feature request, you can send feedback [mailto:mobile-android-wikipedia@wikimedia.org here].

Modifications

 * Do I have to be logged in to edit?
 * No. You can edit without creating a username or logging in, but note that your IP address will be associated with your edits, and will be visible to anyone who reads the page's history.


 * Can I upload pictures?
 * Not yet.


 * Can I view a page's history and talk pages?
 * This is not yet supported in the app. You can view links to the mobile web version of the history and the talk pages in the app.

Sécurité et droits

 * Why does the app need the Identity permission (GET_ACCOUNTS)?
 * This permission is required so that the app can integrate with your user account on Wikipedia, so that your preferences and saved pages will be synchronized between devices when you are logged in. (This feature is currently under development.)


 * Why does the app need the Location permission (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)?
 * This permission is required for the app to find your current location when using the Nearby feature (displaying Wikipedia articles near your physical location). (This permission is not required to use Nearby, but you will need to manually move your map to your current location if the permission is denied.)


 * Why does the app need the Photos/Media/Files permission (WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)?
 * This permission is required because the app allows you to save images that you browse to your local device. It's also required so that the app can temporarily save images for sharing via other apps (as in Share a fact).


 * Why does the app need the Full Network Access permission (ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, ACCESS_WIFI_STATE)?
 * This permission is used by the app to determine the state and quality of your network connection, and adjust certain aspects of its performance accordingly (e.g. loading lower-quality versions of images when on a limited connection). This permission is also used by the app's Nearby feature, which checks the quality of your network connection to determine how aggressively it should load the graphical map tiles.


 * Why does the app need the Startup (Boot Completed) permission (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED)?
 * The app provides a feature that lets you receive notifications on your device about your Wikipedia account. These can be notifications about articles that you've edited, messages on your Talk page, thanks from other editors, etc. This can be turned on if you login to your account and enable notification polling. The service that checks for notifications runs in the background, and needs to restart itself automatically if your device itself is restarted.  This is why the app needs to receive an event when your device initially boots up.  If you do not enable the Notification polling feature, then the Startup permission is not used for any other purpose.


 * Is the connection between the app and Wikipedia encrypted?
 * Oui, tout le trafic réseau de l'application se fait en utilisant HTTPS.

Installation sur des médias externes
The app allows itself to be installed or moved to external media (e.g. an external microSD card) on your device. If you move the app from one location to another, keep in mind that it can introduce unexpected behavior.
