- Rated 1 out of 5by Nick, a month agoI'll stick with Wiki's default look if it means no ads, no random AI stuff, etc. Have been a user for some time, but I guess all good things must come to an end.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18744013, a month agoI've used this extension for quite some time and it used to work flawlessly. As of recent updates Wikiwand started to inject advertisements into Wikipedia pages even though Wikipedia, by principles, is free from ads. It's absolutely unacceptable.
- Rated 1 out of 5by AP6YC, a month agoWikiwand is absolute trash now. Nonsense AI tools are pushed nonstop, and ads are inserted in so many places in the page. What a waste of what was once a great tool. Go somewhere else to format Wiki pages.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18743018, a month agoStarted as a fantastic skin/custom CSS for wikipedia. Now turned into some sort of weird corporate product pushing AI summaries and an ungodly amount of ads! Ads on wikipedia??? Have you gone insane?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Joey, 2 months agoDoes not enhance the user experience of Wikipedia at all. Instead, it changes the look slightly and then bombards you with pop-ups trying to get you to buy their AI service whenever you try to read an article.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13917435, 3 months agoIt used to be very good. I am sorry to say but the actual Wikipedia website offers a cleaner, and better experience than this riddled with unnecessary feature(s) add-on.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Parakeet709, 3 months agoSwitched to another extension after all these AI features rolled out. Just wanted to change the look of articles, but now I can't even do that because its bundled with the paid AI features. If you're looking for a modern and sleek way to make Wikipedia look nice, either get Dark Reader, which lets you keep the default design but make it dark mode, or Modern for Wikipedia, which makes it look nicer, lets you change between shades from white to black and a light brown, and lastly lets you adjust stuff with the text.
I was not sponsored to say this, by the way, this is just my own opinion. I love the style of Wikiwand, but the AI features being forced on causing other design features to be behind a paywall caused me to list alternatives for people reading this. - Rated 5 out of 5by Mouad, 3 months ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18655778, 3 months agoUsed to be good, now just full of premium pop-ups, AI, and selling user data.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13885454, 3 months agoBring back the Pre-AI version... New version is garbage... Have opted for a different extension
- Rated 2 out of 5by blackrose, 3 months agoIt used to be good before they started shoving their premium AI tools down your throat. Better to just use Wikipedia at this point
- Rated 1 out of 5by Pierson Moore, 3 months agoThis extension has become unusable. I don't want to sign in to save my formatting settings, it takes 4 clicks to get rid of the stupid popup and then you also have to clear the AI popup. I really don't care if Wikiwand has AI in it or not but stop shoving it down our throats. set it off to the corner of the page and don't open the AI chat/summary until the user requests it.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 6186021, 3 months agoI was deeply impressed by perfect German and "knowledge". My question was very specific. I was not able to find any information by myself (google, wiki, an so on). So I said to myself: let's ask Wikiwand. The rest you know. WOW.
I will recommend Wikiwand to all my friends. - Rated 1 out of 5by Mtro, 3 months agoUsed to be a very nice wikipedia skin. But like so many things, it's been turned into a business that adds all kind of things I don't want--especially AI. I'll just go back to regular wikipedia.
