Apps

• iOS and Android teams both published incremental updates to address issues with new Reading Lists.

Web

• Team was away at offsite and hackathon - discussing plans for next year

Reading Infrastructure

• Published Wikipedia Reading List browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox. Safari extension to follow hopefully soon, but dealing with a cookie issue when "keep me logged in" is not used.
• Updated various APIs (action=mobileview, /page/summary, /page/mobile-sections) to provide locally overwritten descriptions vs. the centrally stored ones in Wikidata. These were follow-ups to phab:T192838.
