### 5/5 — Love it, small feature idea

*2023-03-30, version 1.6*

the visuals are amazing, but i would love a plate mode, in which you can see the plate borders, the direction of the plates an the type of plate boundarys (divergent, convergent, transform). If well executed, such an app would be worth a few dollars.

Hey stephan, ich vermute du bist deutschsprachig, daher nochmal auf deutsch ^^ Leider gibt es keine schöne app (wie deine) in der man Plattengrenzen genauer einsehen kann, insbesondere nicht die vorliegende Art von Grenze (konstruktiv, destruktiv, konservativ) und der Richtungssinn einzelner Platten. Ich als schusseliger Geophysik student würde es lieben zumindest die groben Bewegungen auf dem Handy nachsehen zu können und ich glaube es wäre eine monetarisierbare Marktlücke. Grüße ^^

### 5/5 — Amazing education app!

*2022-07-19*

This is a really beautiful insight into Earth as a while. Being able to see the Earth throughout the months, seeing its cross section, volcanic activity, and earthquakes over the past 30 days (a fun feature for a Californian) is amazing. Hope it takes off, can see this used in classrooms or as a suggested download in museums. The format of the app would also do well as a web app if the developer wants a bigger audience.

**Developer response:** Really glad you like the app, thank you! It being used in classrooms or museums would be awesome.

### 5/5 — Supernice

*2022-06-02, version 1.1*

Great job by a great designer and coder!
