Is there a similar app for iOS? A quick search there shows up mostly Wikipedia readers.*
* Although, the search found 'Time Machine for Wikipedia' - showing old versions
of Wikipedia articles - which is pretty cool!

Excellent app by Wikipedian John Phelan.
Also allows you to plan whole walking routes to snap several photos, and even allows
doing so in advance, i.e. for other locations, so you can plan a trip and then have it
even without a mobile data connection.

Someone created a web page on labs somewhere that does exactly this, and I used it to

Hi folks!
I made something that I think is pretty cool: a watchface for Pebble
smartwatches that shows you the nearest unphotographed Wikipedia
article. I've been using it for about a month, and I'm really happy
with how it's turned out. I've taken a lot of photos for articles that
I wouldn't have otherwise.
It's called "Diderot". If you have a Pebble, check it out:

<https://apps.getpebble.com/en_US/application/57dc94602a6ea665510000f0>
A few neat things about it:
* You can configure it for a number of different language versions of Wikipedia
* It uses a wmflabs API by Albin Larrson which filters out articles
that have only a png or svg illustration, so you still see the
articles that have a map or logo but lack a real photograph.
