Reviews of Encyclopædia Britannica

Leave a Review Encyclopædia Britannica
  • I recommend the app for education and learning about the world!!!

    Encyclopedia is much better then Wikipedia and I know why it's only 17+ it’s because there are all the topics in the world and they can be inappropriate content. This app is not just for older people but kids too! because the content is safe for kids. I would recommend this app for educational purposes or just a way you want to learn in your free time!!! I think the quizzes are fun because you have fun with the topics! You can search a article or topic, Like for example: I would search a celebrity like Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, then it can show facts like ''Taylor and Selena have a relationship by being friends'' Or another example like you can search like Star Wars: a New Hope, Star Wars: Empires Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

    Thanks for Reading my Review! I hope you Download this app!

  • Furby-like design not helpful Chicago e-version; like the quiz section

    The popular Furby toy became annoying and kids stopped playing with them because of a constant demand for attention. Ditto e-En Brit?! Constant advertising moving on screen, for example, is not what I experienced in a city library with the classic paper edition. Know your audience. Please. And too many errors for your Britannica standard of quality. Even in the fun quizzes. So who edits articles? Who fact checks? Are you seeking unbiased sources? Are you cutting costs? Readers and Researchers notice. But you're still the more reliable source to me.

  • Olde flawless Encyclopedia Britannica paper editions?

    Like the quizzes section nowadays, but please assure that the full answers you provide are accurate. My score might be higher if you do! As well, could you address this related topic? The Roman Empire created the Province of Palestine under their rule. True or False?
