Need more dinosaurs and a dino Dex update

I wish this app would get updated to keep all the original species and add new ones like velociraptor megaraptor shuvvuia dreadnoughtus ankylosaurus from Dino Dan website and Parasaurolophus
NUNeed a Dino Dex update

So good!

This app is so amazing even though I have to pay for the packs. When I first downloaded it, I thought it would be a scam because that’s how a lot of three star apps act like. But then it felt like a five star app. I wish it had some better reviews. It’s a very good app. I think I will keep this my whole life.

Needs more

The models and animations are cool, but it will be nice if we can control the dinosaurs like having them run and attack. Also there should be a recording feature too! Also see if you can have multiple dinosaurs in one shot.
