Can we have some more dinosaurs, please?

Like honestly, I would definitely want to see the brachiosaurus in the app alongside with Desmatosuchus, Aardonyx, etc

Outdated

The app is an outdated app. It basically shows pictures of dinosaurs and when you click on information button, there is a voice over telling you about dinosaurs, it is not interactive. The pictures do not zoom in and neither there are any videos of dinosaurs. So basically if they are charging any money for this, that is kind of overpayment, the app do not deserve any payment.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. The dinosaur images are just one part of the app, which also offers many other interactive ways to explore and use it like Facts, Anatomy, Atlas and more…
