Wikipedia renders WkWebView and Safari differently on an iPad

Question

This problem is iPad specific.

When I use a WKWebView inside my app, its User Agent field is identical to the one sent by Safari. However, the page returned by Wikipedia to my App includes the standard Wikipedia side-bar. Safari on the iPad does not show the side bar.

I would like WKWebview to behave the same was as Safari. I would appreciate suggestions.

You can use SFSafariViewController instead Its behaviour is identical to Safari

if let url = URL(string: urlString) {
        let config = SFSafariViewController.Configuration()
        config.entersReaderIfAvailable = true

        let vc = SFSafariViewController(url: url, configuration: config)
        present(vc, animated: true)
    }
