User Reviews

Overall, XKCD: What If? Reader delivers strong, humorous content with illustrations and a clean, easy-to-navigate design. Ads are unobtrusive and can be removed. However, recurring issues affect the reading experience: iOS-specific scrolling and loading problems, brittle footnotes and formatting (including broken links and non-ASCII text), and outdated content due to infrequent updates. The core content is appealing, but performance and update reliability need attention.
Pros
  • High-quality, humorous, and informative content with illustrations
  • Clean, simple design and easy navigation
  • Ads are limited and optionally removable
Cons
  • Scrolling and performance issues on iOS (unreliable scrolling, lag, long load times)
  • Footnotes/formatting problems (non-ASCII, math formatting, broken links, misordering, truncated alt-text)
  • Content updates infrequent or stale; no easy refresh option

I love the cartoons, adding humor to all the facts!

The only this I think could be better is the formatting on tablets isn't as good as I could be but it still works.
