We believe large numbers of users only use the app briefly before abandoning it. There are various ideas why this might be so. Perhaps they don't understand what the app can do for them, or they may find it hard to get started. There may be problems downloading content, etc. Also, with our growth in custom apps, including non-Wikipedia content such as PhET simulations, perhaps the user interface, menu options, and some of the functionality is a poor fit for the content and capabilities. We'd like to discuss the UX, including onboarding (getting users from first starting the app to using it productively), and consider ways we might usefully improve the UX. | We believe large numbers of users only use the app briefly before abandoning it.

=== Browser extensions === | |||
Basic browser extensions have been submitted to Mozilla and Google, to make them available on Firefox and Chrome. It's the same code on both of them. | |||
Before they are available from their native extensions system, they can be installed manually : | |||
* For Firefox : | |||
** Open http://download.kiwix.org/nightly , choose the latest date available, and click on the latest kiwix-firefox-signed-extension-*.xpi | |||
** Confirm the installation | |||
** It's expected that only the jQuery mode will work under Firefox extension (Firefox limitation for now) | |||
** This jQuery mode works well on wikipedia ZIM files, but has not been tested on other kind of ZIM files, where it should have big limitations | |||
* For Chromium/Chrome : | |||
** Open http://download.kiwix.org/nightly , choose the latest date available, and download the latest kiwix-chrome-signed-extension-*.crx file | |||
** open a new Chromium/Chrome tab with URL "chrome://extensions/" | |||
** drag and drop the crx file into this tab | |||
* On both browsers, a Kiwix icon appears on the right of the address bar | |||
* If you click on this icon, it opens a new tab with the Kiwix application. You must then choose your ZIM file(s), and you should be able to browse it | |||
