What’s new in version 0.0.6?

                Ever found yourself reading a Wikipedia article and come across a word, person, event or concept you haven't heard of before? Without Context, you'd have to open that link, read up on the topic and then navigate back to your original article to pick up where you left off.

With Context you can click that link and the contents of that Wikipedia article are presented to you without leaving the page. This link is also highlighted in the main text so you can easily find your  you place back in the article when you're done reading around the topic.

If you're on a slow internet connection or tethering to a 3G device, Context will reduce your data usage. Instead of loading up a brand new page of Wikipedia every time you need to learn something new, Context harnesses the Wikipedia API to fetch only the information you need.

Context is designed to feel like it's a feature of Wikipedia.org itself and not an add-on. You'll soon wonder how you ever used Wikipedia without it.
