Isn't kiwix-android reading zimit files as well?
For the 0.5% of people who got Kiwix through F-droid? Maybe. But at this stage it's more a happy surprise than an actual feature.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be now be reviewed manually. Thank you for your contributions.
I propose to do that, post Zimit 2.0.
With Zimit 2.0 it will work out of the box. This ticket does not make sense anymore.
Don't we still need to update the text after Zimit 2.0 ?
The text basically says that you need kiwix-serve, which won't be true after Zimit 2.0
Indeed
Kiwix android can also run kiwix serve
Make sure to include that not just kiwix desktop in the text
Current text
You will need a Zim file reader. This usually means Kiwix, which is available on desktop computers, mobile devices, and more. Currently only Kiwix-serve and Kiwix-Android can read all Zimit-generated files. If using Kiwix-Desktop for Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux, then you will need to configure it as a Kiwix-serve instance in the settings. We expect most platforms to be upgraded by the end of 2021.
New text
Currently, Zimit files can only be read with Kiwix-serve. If you are using Kiwix-Desktop for Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux, it is possible to set it up to run Kiwix-serve from the settings.
