    This is how you can get offline Wikipedia articles for OSM. Great when traveling.

    You can, for example, read articles about things you pass in a plane, train, auto, or bike. Without internet.

        In OsmAnd you can download map data for use offline. In the same download page for thr map data there’s also a download for Wikipedia data.

        Download data is per country, so someone just bundled all the articles that have GPS coordinates withing the bounds of each country, and you can download all those articles for offline use in the OsmAnd app.
