Fix iOS Safari Crashes
I find WikiWand slow and crashy on mobile Safari. When I load a moderately long article, like Bill Gates, it is slow loading, and about 50% of the time it crashes the page/browser (which I see rarely happen on other sites). On my Android Nexus 7 tablet, Wiki Wand works much better. My Device: iPhone 4S; iOS 8.

We improved iOS/Safari performance vastly in the past month. Does it work better now?

Thank you for the improvements. I tested the same Article (Bill Gates) with no trouble. I reduced motion in accessibility which frees up some of my RAM. Now we just need a convenient way to convert Wikipedia Google search results to WikiWand. Something I've seen other sites do (such as Readability) is make a JavaScript bookmarklet for the browser that sends the current URL to a new site. Good luck !
