Exact dates only

This is a terrible idea. I have to scroll to the exact date of an event, … and that’s it?!
I want my dollar back. Deleting.

Limited.

This is a nice summary, but the quantity of covered topics are too limited and the quizzes cover the exact same questions each time. Rather disappointing!
