Ok, but...

I’m using an iPad Air 10.5 and some of the text is still cut off or pasted on the screen in areas that are difficult to read or where it overlaps other text. It would be a lot better if the text was clearer and the layout was a lot smoother and less jumbled up. Hence why I’ve only given 2 stars. If it improves significantly I will update my rating but until then I’m sorry but the app is a total let down. Sort it please. !!! πŸ‘Ž

Great App! Date Incorrect

We love this app! I just wanted to let you know the date of Amelia Earhart’s birthday is 1897 not 1867.
Thank you for this easy to use app!

Inaccurate

Not recommended at all.
The person doesn’t know history.

It’s not a book ,

I thought it’ll be like a book . It’s a useless application

Appealing

This app is very visually appealing and easy to use. I really like it and recommend it.

Having said that, I would also like to see more entries and more females represented too.

Great app

This app is really good but I wish that the maker of this app had put more biographies and fix the death of Adolf hitler instead of writing 1954 and put the write date 1945. But all in all a great app.

Needs a ton of work...

Long on fanciful graphics, really, *really* short on facts. This is a classic case, and perfect example, of style over substance failing in a big way. And there are SO MANY missed opportunities here for the presentation of more in-depth information. Considering the amount of valuable storage this app demands (just under a gig), and the price, it borders on pathetic.

If the app were a person, they would be pretty, but dumb.

font size

So far i'm very pleased with it, the only problem is the font size, still too small.

Look at birth/death dates

You need to go through this app and check your dates....JS Bach died in 1750. Not 1844...makes me not want to trust the rest of the articles if you can't get that right.

Needs Work

Great graphics and interface. It's fun to use. The biographies are superficial but a fair starting point. The spelling is not very good and some sentences are awkwardly written. The developer needs some historians and editors to help him out.

Impressive but there are flaws

The structure and interface for the app is incredible, but the information like others said cant be trusted. I encourage you to work on the accuracy and then it would be an Awesome app!

Great app

I love learning about all my faves of history. Beautiful graphics. Thanks! Add more people, please!

Fun way of displaying information

The information is mostly excellent but a few mistakes. The way the info is presented is very engaging and grabs your attention. The pictures are very good.

Great app....

however, I can't figure out how to apply sound.

Biography

Very good app. Most informative.

Mistakes need rectifying!

This is good app but, as others have said, there are numerous errors! For instance, Amelia Erhart has two different birth dates on the same page! For a reference app this is poor and after all the time the app has been available the mistakes should have been put right.

No retina display compatibility?

Very bad resolution. I didn't even want to read anything because it's so bad. Looks promising, but no longer taking up almost a gig of space on my ipad.

Okay.

There are lot of typos in this. For example John F. Kennedy was born in Brooklyn, not Brookline. And Julius Caesar's right hand man was Mark Antony, not Mark Anthony. Also, Julius Caesar's death is completely wrong. He did not die from a chill he caught while sailing. He was assassinated, stabbed several times on the Ides of March. (March 15). It is a good app for the most part but make sure the information is correct. Thank you.

Misleading

The info is not fact checked. Bad citations. Avoid

Needs Improvements

Needs a more professional feel. Seems as if it was created or a project in a high school history class. Either needs to add more biographies and a new interface or needs to lower the price to $2.
