When I tap on them all I see is an image of dinosaur egg. And my content is supposed to be fully downloaded. ### 3/5 — Broken parts of app *2026-07-21, version 5.0.5* It’s really frustrating that parts of the app are broken and we pay for full access. Maps like savanna are broken and stay frozen. There are duplicates and some are broken as well. I hope they fix this. Not worth the crying kids when the app doesn’t work after paying for it. ### 4/5 — Are you going to fix this? *2026-07-20, version 5.0.5* I would rate it five stars if you would fix this, because what happened to the models of the new dinosaurs, there al just empty. I keep checking the came to see if you would update it but not fixed, but it is a great game. ### 2/5 — You have to pay for everything *2026-07-10, version 5.0.5* To just click a button you have to pay bro just to do anything have to pay you just can’t play the game but I feel if you didn’t have to pay for everything it would be good ### 3/5 — Ideas *2026-06-26, version 5.0.3* Like trex hunting triceratops or edmontosaur of great high def video with audio description and paleo questions to be answered by experts ### 4/5 — The problem of Dinopedia *2026-05-30, version 5.0.0* I agree with all the false information and all of that but there still there’s something that sucks about this start off is all the stuff that’s free and not free. I wish everything was free but nope I wish there was more dinosaurs but nope I wish there was more content but nope, and from the guy who created green vr’s fun lab in GRAB green vvrrrr ### 4/5 — Where are the bugs and cephalopods? *2026-04-02, version 4.15* Needs prehistoric cephalopods, arthropods, and mollusks. Where are they? Also, some of the 3 D scans don’t have information on the scan. Just the name. Also, add prehistoric cephalopods with shells. ### 4/5 — Good,but add this update *2026-02-08, version 4.15* Maybe add an update where in the biomes, if there is a meat eating dinosaur or prehistoric creature, make it so that it chases you and if you duck or sneak under the plants but ONLY UNDER THE PLANTS it cannot see you. ### 4/5 — I like this app *2026-01-13, version 4.15* I like this app, but i have to pay for something. So yeah, ### 4/5 — Good,but add this update *2025-12-22* Maybe add an update where in the biomes, if there is a meat eating dinosaur or prehistoric creature, make it so that it chases you and if you duck or sneak, it cannot see you. ### 2/5 — I send emails *2025-12-19* But not getting any responses anything coming out soon maybe some videos??? **Developer response:** Hello Gian9456, Thank you for reaching out and for your continued support of 3D Dinopedia! We truly appreciate your enthusiasm and your keen observations regarding our representations of dinosaurs, particularly the T-rex.

These conversations are aimed at potentially collaborating to create a documentary video that captures the thrilling process of paleontological discovery. If we reach an agreement, this will allow us to offer an immersive experience, providing a unique glimpse into the work that goes into understanding these magnificent creatures. While these plans are still in the early stages, we are optimistic about the possibility of bringing such an innovative feature to our users. We understand the anticipation and desire for new content, and we're working diligently to ensure that the next update not only meets but exceeds your expectations. Your investment in our app is something we don't take lightly, and we're committed to delivering an experience that is both educational and exhilarating. Thank you for your patience and your passion for paleontology. Please stay tuned for more updates as we progress with these exciting developments. Warm regards, The 3D Dinopedia Team ### 4/5 — Is this games models copyrighted *2025-12-09* I could give this game a five star review but this is not my only question why aren’t there animals that went extinct in. 1800s **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Yes — all 3D models in the app are created by our own team of 3D artists together with professional paleontologists, so every creature is researched and crafted by us. Regarding recently extinct animals, our project is mainly focused on much older prehistoric periods, but we appreciate your interest and will keep your suggestion in mind as we continue developing the app. Thank you for supporting us! ### 4/5 — Is this games models copyrighted *2025-11-25* I could give this game a five star review but this is my only question ### 5/5 — New additions *2025-11-08* Skorpiovenator,Perucetus,Ichthyotitan,Temnodontosaurus,Saltopus, and others. Also, PLEASE ADD ICHTHYOTITAN I BEG YOU, and please change megalodon’s weight to a higher, more accurate amount. And also, 35,000 kg is still too much for basilosaurus. 4,500 kg-13,600 kg is the size limits. Also, if you’re wondering about my name, The Wandering Doom is a (correct) name for day 18, (Gigantovoidus clavocorpus) which is a fictional monster from the Trevor Henderson universe. It weighs approximately 20 billion tons and is about 9.3 miles tall, resembling a silhouette. :3 **Developer response:** Thanks for your awesome feedback! We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the paleo updates. The mighty Ichthyotitan is fascinating, but since fossils are still fragmentary, we may feature a more complete relative like Shonisaurus in future updates. We’re also re-checking Megalodon’s weight to keep our stats as accurate as possible! ### 5/5 — I C H T H Y O T I T A N *2025-10-26, version 4.13* Please add Ichthyotitan Severnensis. This enormous Triassic ichthyosaur could weigh 200 tons and be 115 feet long! Also, thanks for fixing the poor Basilosaurus and decreasing its weight to 35000 kg. Also, the megalodon’s weight should be 103,500 kg, not 60000. Thanks for fixing these and making the game (even) better! ### 5/5 — Sick *2025-10-26, version 4.13* The Dino’s will move in taiga but some Dino’s cost money. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-08-21, version 5.0.5* Honestly this is not very good becuase you have to pay for an extension pack and yea the quality that is shown is not very good and I feel like all of it should be free ### 1/5 — Not good, very inaccurate and has a lot of false information *2026-05-15, version 4.15* The main problem with this app is it’s inaccuracy and false information, many animals are very inaccurate and outdated depictions such as shrink wrapping, outdated depictions and for dinosaurs broken wrists. And the worst of it is that they claim that their depiction of these animals are up-to-date and accurate when that’s clear false. Another major negative is the use of AI. What they should do is contact artists and modelers who will make better and more accurate models for these animals. I’m a Paleo enthusiast, I can actually help with the dinosaurs and pterosaurs. I’ll do it for free too. ### 1/5 — When you gonna bring the historical spinosaurus things back *2025-12-21, version 4.15* So are you gonna bring back the spinosaurus versions from the 1990s and 1930s? It’s nearly Christmas now ### 1/5 — How dare you remove the thing to check spinosaurus versions over the years *2025-12-03, version 4.14* So are you gonna bring back the spinosaurus versions from the 1990s and 1930s? ONE STAR ### 1/5 — How dare you remove the thing to check spinosaurus versions over the years *2025-04-01, version 4.13* So are you gonna bring back the spinosaurus versions from the 1990s and 1930s? ONE STAR ### 1/5 — Not for me! *2024-09-07, version 4.13* This game is a scam! Why so much in app purchases! The only thing that’s cool are the 3D biomes, but those aren’t even cool. You have to pay for so much! I want to find a cool Dino app…. But this is not gonna be it! And when ever I filter my 3D biomes they just go away. I don’t like dis app. ### 1/5 — Not for me! *2024-08-28* This game is a scam! Why so much in app purchases! The only thing that’s cool are the 3D biomes, but those aren’t even cool.

We greatly value your feedback on the depicted characteristics such as strength, speed, stamina, endurance, intelligence, and resilience of the animals featured in our project, as well as your specific notes on the T-rex model, including your points about the scale size and teeth appearance. Please allow us to explain that our project prides itself on basing its content on the most current scientific data available. The field of paleontology, which informs much of our work, often grapples with uncertainties due to the nature of studying ancient life. Many characteristics of these animals, especially those related to behavior and physiology, are subject to interpretation and educated speculation based on available fossils and comparative anatomy with modern descendants. The T-rex model, along with the representations of other prehistoric animals in our Dinopedia, is developed under strict scientific guidance, adhering closely to the latest research and paleontological consensus. However, it's important to note that some features, might still be debated within the scientific community. Our commitment is to continuously update our models as new discoveries emerge, ensuring they reflect the most up-to-date understanding of these creatures. We understand that this approach can sometimes lead to differences between popular perceptions and the scientifically-backed representations we offer. We appreciate your engagement and enthusiasm for accurate and detailed depictions of prehistoric life. Your feedback is crucial for us to improve and refine our work. Please continue to share your thoughts and suggestions with us. We are dedicated to making the 3D Dinopedia a dynamic resource that evolves with paleontological research, enriching our shared understanding of the ancient past. 🦖🦕🌍 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It is a very good app!! just a few things. *2026-07-22, version 5.0.5* This is a very good app but in an earlier version the models looked more realistic. Like the bothriolepis has seperate plate kind of armor but in the earlier version the gaps between the armor where more deep. Also in the new update all animals look more yellowish or more cartoonish. Also in the Jurassic seas 3d biomes when we press the button and the man talks he says something about Leedsichthys but there is no leesichthys in the app so can you add the leedsichthys? Also here is a list of animals I want you to add: Eurhinosaurus Hatzegopteryx Himalayasaurus Guizhouichthyosaurus Gaunlingsaurus Guidraco Shastasaurus Kronosaurus Koolasuchus Excalibosaurus Temnodontosaurus Ornithocheirus Jaekelopterus Elasmosaurus Cameroceras Also please make the Helicoprion’s mouth be fully open so everyone can see its spiral jaw 🦈🌀🦕🦖 ### 5/5 — Kayden Riehm *2026-06-11, version 5.0.1* Kayden Riehm ### 5/5 — Loved it but there’s a problem *2026-06-10, version 5.0.1* Is there a way to get the premium content for free? ### 5/5 — AWESOME,BUT ERRORS!? *2026-06-01* This is the best Dino game I’ve seen and especially with the vision thing with the creatures I really awesome, my favorite is the mosasaurus,but my internet is fine and some of my other favorites are just errors , but the best game I’ve seen so far **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words, and sorry about the errors. Some users have already reported this issue, and we’ll fix the problem shortly. Thank you for letting us know. ### 5/5 — Wow you guys are lazy *2026-05-13, version 4.15* You guys are so lazy because you refuse to draw actual art and instead generate ai slop as you said in the last response also you like more obscure creatures better then well known ones also I think the last response was written by ai ### 5/5 — Good *2026-04-03* This is good and way better it teach about not only dinosaurs but other animals that went extinct **Developer response:** Thank you! We’re glad you enjoyed it. We know dinosaurs are often the most popular topic, but we also want to help people explore the full diversity of life that has existed on Earth, including many other amazing extinct animals. ### 5/5 — good. *2026-03-18, version 4.15* this is the most accurate and fascinating dinosaur game i seen ### 5/5 — Add spinosaurus mirabilis *2026-03-02* It would be amazing if it would be added **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Yes — all 3D models in the app are created by our own team of 3D artists together with professional paleontologists, so every creature is researched and crafted by us. Regarding recently extinct animals, our project is mainly focused on much older prehistoric periods, but we appreciate your interest and will keep your suggestion in mind as we continue developing the app. Thank you for supporting us! ### 5/5 — :D *2025-12-14, version 4.14* May you fix the Megalodon’s weight to a more reasonable amount like 100,000 kg+? #aBitBigger ### 5/5 — Poor Ichthyotitan……… *2025-11-11, version 4.13* The Ichthyotitan is thought to be the largest ichthyosaur ever found, the fragment of a jaw that paleontologists found alone was a third the length of a Shonisaurus skull! Its estimated stats are: Size: estimated to have approached or exceeded the size of a blue whale. Length: approximately 82-115 feet. Diet: carnivore, preying on small reptiles, squid, and fish. Habitat. The Ocean. BONUS FACT: its weight was 20-40 times higher than an average Tyrannosaurus. Please add this i really hope it gets a spot in this incredible app! 🔥🔥🔥😀😀😀 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
