Overview

Version 3.7.7-3.7.8 [10-Oct-25] Kiwix JS is your gateway to a world of knowledge, even when the Internet is out of reach! This app is designed to empower you with information, no matter where you are. To get started, simply download a Free content archive from our extensive in-app Library. Dive into a vast collection of content from Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, Ted Talks, Wiktionary, Wikivoyage, Stack Exchange, and many more, available in hundreds of languages.

Whether you're looking for quick facts or in-depth articles, Kiwix JS delivers the information you need, fast. Tailor your experience by downloading "themed" collections of Wikipedia articles or the entire Wikipedia in your language, with the option to include or exclude images based on your preferred file size. Perfect for travelers, students, and anyone seeking knowledge in places where Internet access is limited, expensive, or simply unavailable.

Features

An archive for this app to be useful: it only comes bundled with a small test archive of the top 100 Wikipedia articles so you can get a feel for how the app works. If you want the full English-language Wikipedia with images, you will need a large drive (or microSD card) in your device, or plenty of disk space on a PC. The file is currently ~100 GB and you might want to download it using BitTorrent (torrent link provided in the app). However, if you have limited storage you can still download specific parts of Wikipedia, such as medical pages, maths or computing pages, or a no-pictures version which is 37 gigabytes.
