Wikipedia Reading Lists Extension

Wikipedia Reading Lists is for Wikipedia Android or iOS users who would like to save articles into their reading lists. With a single tap, you can save an article into your default reading list, where it will be available for you to read through either of the Wikipedia apps.

To use this browser extension, you will need to have reading list syncing enabled for your account in the iOS or Android Wikipedia app.

Elvin Aslanov (ID: 0000008b97d365e5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/08/2023 Good, but I also want to manage my list from my desktop computer's web browser and there's no UI for it in the extension. And also I'd like to choose a reading list while saving (since I may have many on mobile), and not everything saved to go to the default "Saved".

Kevin (ID: 00000084788b8ef9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/26/2023 So basically I can save articles to the reading list BUT cannot read the items on the reading list (the most basic feature) and cannot delete articles from it. It's a joke, why can't Wikipedia just incorporate the reading list into their website?

Leonardo Buzz (ID: 000000cb468f7727) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/17/2022 it really doesn't work , what a waste of a time

chris varenhorst (ID: 000000a8d244c76c) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 04/06/2022 As of 2022 this extension has now broken and Wikipedia hasn't bothered to update it. It's ridiculous that reading lists are only supported in the mobile apps and no where else.. But there is hope! It looks like someone built another extension using the same APIs that actually works. You can find it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wikipedia-reading-lists/ledhaefolaamkihlcbjbongijbmmakip They have the same name so remove/disable this one first. Also I do wish the official Wikipedia one actually worked, since I trust it more...
