Missing periods and species idk

This app is good but the creator only included the pennsylvainian, ordivician, neogene and cretaceous period when there are other periods. Also the pennsylvanian is a sub period of the carbenifoures along with the missisipian period. Also when we look in the taxonomy section you can see the creators are missing a few species. Apart from that the app is good and functional

Account suspended

I was thoroughly enjoying using the app but was extremely surprised when I tried to log in and an β€œaccount suspended” message appeared. Tried to find out why but no luck. Sure would like to know why….

Awesome new update

Just got the new version of the app and really love it. I’d been a long time user of the previous version and the new version has great new graphics and interface, and the Cretaceous time period is an excellent addition. The app is an excellent tool for learning more about various types of fossils, what they look like and where to find them.

Review

Great potential, but lacking information and facts. There are hardly any fossils, and the ones that are mentioned are missing facts and data.

Response from developer

The application is a companion app the website https://www.digitalatlasofancientlife.org/ It has exactly the intended time periods and accompanying information.
