### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-08-13, version 1.2*

I look for art pieces here almost every day, thanks

### 3/5 — Loved app until I used another device

*2024-03-13*

Bought upgrade and loved it. Spent ages adding all my favourite artists. Reason I chose this app is so I could use on phone and iPad. It does not save favourites between devices. I assume that will mean that if I did not back up then they would be lost also if deleted. Sadly not practical for what I wanted it for which was to favourite artists and pieces in one place as part of my research. Sad really as it is a wonderful app otherwise.

### 5/5 — Erudite

*2023-04-06*

Discovered schools of art and artists I never knew. It’s like a day at the world’s best art museums. Love this.

### 4/5 — Güzel ama..

*2023-03-25, version 1.2*

Her şey çok iyi, Wikipedia bilgisi, internette resmi ya da ilgili video aratma gibi seçenekler harika. Sadece iki şey daha olsa mükemmel olur.
1) resimler daha yüksek çözünürlükte olabilir.
2) favori ekleme var ama özel koleksiyon oluşturma seçeneği yok, o da olmalı.

### 5/5 — Great art application ever
