About Wikisource Reader

Wikisource Reader is an Android app for reading public-domain and freely licensed works. Users can browse validated or fully proofread works, filter by language or genre, and search by title or author. Books can be downloaded to a local library for offline reading, where users can track reading completion, delete books, and share links to their Wikisource pages. The reader supports font-size changes, word lookup, and a dictionary, with light and dark themes and multiple interface languages. The catalogue is fetched through an API, while downloaded books can be read without a connection. Wikisource Reader combines discovery, reading, and local library management for freely available texts. Its collection depends on the catalogue and its validation status; the app focuses on books rather than general web browsing.
