### 5/5 — Nice job!

*2014-03-23, version 1.3.1*

I was thinking about spending many hours making my own artist timeline but then I discovered this awesome app. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-10-10, version 1.3.1*

I love how everything is organize in a timeline - Now that they added movement and periods of art. It deserves 5 stars two times. I know people are going to hate the Wikipedia information. Just give a try. 

-by Luis Oracio Lopez Del Valle

### 2/5 — Not quite well described here

*2012-08-28, version 1.2*

You should say explicitly here that most functions are only available via in-app purchase.
