  • Really nice overview of earths history

    Really nice overview of earths history.
  • Brilliant

    A really excellent tool to understand the history of our planet, very well designed.
  • Awesome app!

    Love love love this app! I have used it so far with my year 4/5 students during a combined geography and science unit and it has been wonderful. Thankyou for making it free!
  • Great App

    This app is awesome, it shows me how Earth used to look millions of years ago, but I think some some improvements should be made; should be able to see current location ( using location services), should be able to zoom in more, should have a search bar for searching up extinct species and so on...
  • PLEASE ADD THE FRENCH FEATURE TO THIS APP

    It would be very useful.
    Thanks!
  • Great, but one flaw

    Earth Viewer
    This is a great app!!! One thing that I really liked about this app is that it is super easy to understand. The image of the earth is really big and you can scroll around on it to see the whole thing. I also liked that the timeline is labeled in a way that cannot possibly be missed. I loved that you can choose so much stuff. If you select the menus on the bottom of the screen, you can choose to see geological features/events, fossil discoveries, and even where modern cities would be located. With so many choices, you just can't get bored! The app has a small problem though. While it is way better than any other app I tried, it does not allow you to scroll down on he timeline unless the entire era is visible. Other than that, it was superbly captivating and a great visual!

  • VERY cool!

    I'm not a geologist, so this app is very cool in my opinion. I tend to read the "most critical" review of apps before deciding on whether or not to get it. Having only puttered about with this app so far, it's great. However, I can already tell that I agree with the "most critical" review I read and that there. Are some things missing and smaller increments in recent history would be great.

  • Amazing

    Downloaded this when I was bored and now I have showed the entire geology department at college and they now use it to teach, it's an essential app for any geologist
  • Great for classroom use

    Good apps deserve a review! I've used this app extensively with my Science classes. Particularly with Geology, Climate and Evolution classes. Students find it easy to use and engage with the graphics. I tend to only use the most basic features but it has some fascinating extra details like graphs of oxygen levels over the past 500 million years.

  • Great app but needs Stages/Ages added to timeline

    Thanks for this great app! Would be better if Stages were added to the timeline.
