Hi Andre, this report pertains to the new, upcoming Wikipedia app. I was beta-testing it for YuviPanda and he asked me to file the report for any possible bugs.

To be more clear, the search time on the app seems about 3 to 4 seconds more than that on the mobile website.

Please let me know how I could be more clear on this.

My own testing does not show this to be the case, so marking this as WORKSFORME.

FWIW, we do request more search results than mobile web, so this is technically true.
