"My guess is that because the hatnotes are placed after the title template, they are displayed below. I also believe I've seen examples of hatnotes appearing later when other templates are placed before them, like page issues."

Thanks for the feedback. With the new Explore Feed design, Top Read is now shown one language at a time. The idea behind this change is to make the experience more focused and easier to browse within each language. You can still switch between the languages you've added to the app and view the Top Read articles for each of them., the full details and designs on the main project page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/Team/Explore_Feed_Refresh/Phase_1

A newly received report through the support email:
The “Picture of the Day” widget is not working properly. Initially, it kept showing me the same picture for two consecutive days. I decided to delete the widget and add it again, and now it shows nothing. It’s blank. Thank you for your help.

"I’ve had this issue for months - I routinely save articles to read at a later time, and often, I’ll unsave the article and although it appears removed from my list, upon refresh the article persists in my list.
When I click on the article, the saved icon is unfilled. This happens more often when I swipe and delete from the Saved list. Please find an example attached for the “guinea worm disease” page.

When I open the Explore section, today's picture is displayed, but when I tap it, the screen goes to the black screen shown above, and the spinning circle just keeps going on and it never opens. I've updated the Wikipedia app and cleared the cache, but it hasn't improved.
The user emailed us that this was solved after the latest app update.

Hello.

Hi, for the past few days the "PICTURE OF THE DAY" feature no longer opens when clicked; the page is just black. This is an iPad Pro 11". These photos are usually nice, but you only see the full photo when the image is opened.
Any ideas?

The “search within page” is not working. I’ve just noticed this in the last couple days. Why is that?
The first user who reported this confirmed that this happens even in the archive all the time.

"When will the maps bug get fixed on the app?? It’s been like this for years now. It’s so annoying when trying to look at a map for a city, it doesn’t load properly.

"Whenever I’m on a page where the info box has a map attached to it, it won’t load; it’ll just have a gray background with a blue box with a white question mark inside it. I am messaging you to ensure that this can get fixed.

"Hello!
When I press the magnifying glass to search, I think the cursor should automatically be placed in the search box and the keyboard should pop up. Right now it takes an extra press to select the search bar after pressing the search button, which for some reason has caused me a lot of annoyance! 😂
Thanks for your awesome work!"
+1 mention this through our iOS support email:
"When browsing Wikipedia, it is pretty annoying that I press the search button twice (once to upend the search menu and a second tip on the text field to bring up my keyboard).

This functionality is already available in the app. You can navigate forward or backward between previously viewed articles by tapping the three dots menu in the bottom bar, where both Forward and Back options are available.

Hello! I use Wikipedia quite often, mostly just for leisurely research purposes. I love to browse random topics and fall down rabbit-holes in my spare time, and more often than not i’ve found myself wishing there was a feature that allowed me to highlight (or quote) segments of an article. This feature would be private, of course, my quotes or highlights only being visible to me. It would also be helpful if accessing them was possible through my saves. Thank you in advance for considering my request, and thank you to all of those who make Wikipedia accessible! The world needs it now more than ever.
