LoreHop

A small detour can lead to a great discovery.

LoreHop brings you short introductions to Wikipedia articles in a quiet, paper-inspired reading experience. Explore history, science, nature, remarkable people, and unexpected curiosities, one story at a time.

SWIPE TO EXPLORE
Swipe left for the next story. Swipe right to return to the previous one.

READ A LITTLE OR GO DEEPER
See an article's featured image and introduction. Long-press the text for a scrollable preview, or the image to see it uncropped. Tap "Read on Wikipedia" to open the full article in the app.

REMEMBER YOUR JOURNEY
Find previously viewed stories in the History tab, even after restarting the app. New discoveries skip stories already in your history or bookmarks. Clear your history anytime while keeping your bookmarks.

SAVE YOUR DISCOVERIES
Tap the star or swipe down to toggle a bookmark. Find saved stories again in a Bookmarks tab with image previews, alongside your History tab. Saved introductions remain on your device; loading full articles requires an internet connection.

SHARE A LITTLE DISCOVERY
Swipe up to create a story image with LoreHop branding and a QR code for sources and credits. Save it to your device or share it through your favorite apps.

CHOOSE YOUR WIKIPEDIA LANGUAGE
Discover articles from 16 Wikipedia editions, including English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, and German. Articles come from the selected edition rather than being automatically translated.

MADE FOR A QUIET MOMENT
