Because the app uses the same base URL for the requests to Wikipedia as other 
access methods (e.g. internet browsers), a block a Wikipedia would apply to the 
App, too. Sorry, but there's no way to work around this, if a block is 
implemented to block all requests to a specific domain. One workaround on the 
client side would be to use a VPN, so that the request will be made from 
another origin and the answer forwarded to your phone/computer. However, I'm 
not sure, if this is allowed in any way.

Best,
Florian

Does it also affect the app?

If so, why, and can we circumvent that?
