Have y'all considered adding accessibility functions to the app? In particular TTS would be useful for me. Controls like the app @ voice aloud reader on Android would be awesome.
If not that, then at a minimum, please consider make it possible to toggle citations on and off so I don't have to hear "open parentheses # close parentheses" for every dang citation while using the speak selection tool.
Hello @Mintsenior,
YES, we're actually considering this; this is the main ticket that we're using for updates in implementing text to speech:

Appreciating your interest and patience as we work to improve the accessibility of the Wikipedia app for you and all users.
Ah. I see. Thank you.

I suppose this is as good a motivation to learn to code as any.
If I wanted to propose screen reader compatibility as an alternative stop back measure,
Don't really have coding experience.
Currently, we're engaged in our yearly planning phase, during which big number of features have been proposed' the apps team is evaluating these requests in alignment with the organizational objectives established in collaboration with our communities.
Please subscrie to the ticket I sent eralier to be updated with any actions that will be added to it and I suggest adding the Community Wishlist to your watchlist.
