I think this will be useful for those who love to travel and explore.--आर्या जोशी (talk) 06:57, 21 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

WV is related to the content much less formal than WP, and with this an invitation for everyone, who knows something to add. At the same time implementing places with this special syntax is a complicated job. Taigatrommel (talk) 18:10, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What we have until now are the offline content packages provided by Kiwix and or the travel guides option of the OsmAnd navigation app. Both are free/libre open source, as the official WikiVoyage app should be. EasyKL (talk) 19:18, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As a heavy Wikivoyage user myself, I personally would love to have an app too! However after discussing this with our team we feel building an app from scratch is too daunting of a task for us.
