FAQ

Do I need an account to use Wispar?

No. Wispar does not require any kind of account. In fact, there is no account creation at all. Your data stays entirely in a local database on your device. An institutional account is only needed if you configure an institution in the EZproxy settings.

My institution is not available in the list of proxies. How can it be added?

If your institution uses EZproxy, OpenAthens, or a similar proxy, it can be included by either submitting a pull request or opening an issue in the following GitHub repository: ezproxy-db

Once the proxy is added to the repository, it will automatically become available in Wispar, since the proxy list is not cached.
