WikiGear aims to provide the most powerful and least obtrusive way of navigating Wikipedia (free) and its sister projects: Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikiquote, Wikiversity, Wiktionary and Wikispecies (2$ for all).

In addition to regular articles, WikiGear simultaneously searches categories, portals and all other article types available in order to give you the most possible search results.

Both search by title and in articles content are provided. In iPad, results for each are elegantly displayed side-by-side.

Specially designed for multilingual users, just set your preferred languages and switch between them effortlessly.

WikiGear is a live project and new features, improvements and fixes are constantly being worked on.
