### 5/5 — Pleased. Very pleased. Good, succinct content.

*2023-05-03*

I am beginning, like it very much so far, but… really wish the text was a little larger. For individuals with visual impairments, slightly larger text and/or a font that includes slightly more spacing can improve the reading comprehension experience because the reader can focus on cognitive fluency processing and not visual accuracy. 

However, other than that I am very much enjoying the app. I particularly like the glossary explanations on the genres. This supports a better close read analysis of the work and putting the visual elements in perspective. 

I also like the flash card format. This format keeps the content delivery dynamic and engaging. 

I am just getting started with this app. Compared to the other art learning apps, this one is more academic feeling, which is what I was looking for to assist me in my studies and my workshop teaching and learning. I may have  more praise for the app after I use it longer. I will recommend it to the participants in my workshop sessions.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comments. I'm glad you like the app. I take note of your feedback on having larger text. It is always possible to make improvements in a future version. User feedback is essential for improving apps. Thank you again.

### 5/5 — Having a blast

*2023-04-25*

Flexing my two art regress as a little nerd game show against only myself

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comments. I am happy you like the app.

### 5/5 — Better in 2 days!

*2023-01-10*

I’ve always wondered how people recognized different styles of art, but after 2 days of using this (to replace a social media habit), and I’m getting styles right easily! Would love to see the same thing for global art or other periods. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. I'm glad you like the app and that it works. As a developer, we are never sure if an app works until users confirm it. Thanks again!

### 5/5 — helpful and beautiful

*2022-09-18*

I love learning art like this at my fingertips! i’m only confused about what the coins are for? there’s no description- it just says they’ll last forever :)) i’m going to buy them to support the developer, but I really don’t understand what coins do lol

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. I'm glad you like “Learn Art”. Coins are used inside the quiz to get hints. Your comment makes me realize that I was not explicit enough to explain their usefulness. Thank you again, your comment will allow me to improve “Learn Art”.

### 5/5 — Amazing App with one little error

*2022-07-21, version 4.0*

I love the app! It gives a great overview over art history.

One little thing though: in the overview of Michelangelo two paintings: „Donna alla Finestra“ and „Ritratto di Marcelina“ are from Michel Angelo Pittatore from the 19th century. It would be great if they could be removed :)

Otherwise an amazing app to learn about art history!

### 5/5 — Art History Buff

*2021-09-11*

I took AP Art History 8 yrs ago. I wanted a refresher without having to take an actual course. This app is wonderful! I love the set up and the way the information is displayed. Such great quality! I have regained so much information about Art and I feel at ease learning about it. I take a few minutes every day to go through the app and there are times when I just keep going. Very fun and interactive way to learn or refresh your art history knowledge. I would recommend this to any one studying for the AP Art History exam or homeschoolers. Not sure that is interactive and compelling enough for any one bellow the age of 14 of 15. But it’s great!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your comments. I work alone and the only way I can know if I am on the right track is when I receive user’s comments. Comments like yours keep me motivated to continue improving « Learn Art ». Thanks again!

### 5/5 — Enjoying this app

*2021-03-01*

I enjoy looking at the artwork and identifying painters and paintings

**Developer response:** Thank you! I am happy you are enjoying « Learn Art ».

### 5/5 — Wonderful,  beautiful!

*2021-02-17, version 1.6*

If you have heart for art, smile:)
I am so pleased and will buy the coins this app is worth way more than $.99 that it prompts for. 

If you love art and want to learn in a beautiful way, this is the app for you. Seriously thank you for this such a beautiful creation for our art lovers! You must be an amazing teacher!!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your comments. I have been thinking of making available “Learn Art” in other languages and even of making  an upgraded version. Your comments give me the courage to put in all the necessary work.

### 5/5 — Wonderful App!

*2020-12-13*

The music combined with the slideshow style makes learning about art so enjoyable! I wish there were more apps like this :)

**Developer response:** I am happy you enjoyed "Learn Art", thank you for your comments. It is always nice to see ones work is appreciated.

### 5/5 — Fabulous app

*2020-04-03*

I am enjoying it very much. This app is helpful and informative. Obviously, the developer spent a great deal of time and thought in the creation of this app. My one recommendation to make it even better is this: in the quiz, after we choose the correct artist to go with the biography, it would be extremely helpful if one of the artist’s paintings were displayed, so that we can immediately associate him with his art. Thanks so much for a wonderful, illuminating app.

Will there be another edition with 140 different paintings? I have reached the level of Art Master and am eager for more!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your comments. I am happy you enjoy the app. I think your suggestion is very good. I will look into it for the next version of the app.

### 1/5 — Paye to play

*2025-07-27, version 4.4*

You need to paye too play more then a certain Time

### 1/5 — Non comprate monete perché non arrivano

*2025-05-27, version 4.4*

Ho comprato monete effettuando un pagamento di 0,99€ ma non sono mai arrivate. Ad oggi non posso giocare e sono stata truffata

### 1/5 — Impossible de recevoir des jetons payés

*2023-10-03, version 4.3*

Bonjour, 
J’ai payé 0,99€ pour des jetons que je n’ai jamais reçu, de plus l’interface de paiement est incompréhensible….
Désolée car tout le reste est cool

### 1/5 — Ripped me off!

*2020-04-13*

This app took my payment for an in app purchase but didn’t give it to me. If I tried to buy it again it said I had purchased it but it wouldn’t let me use it. It was completely unusable and I had to delete it.

**Developer response:** I am  very sorry about this. Of course I did not design the App to do such a thing. You can get your money back by communicating with the App Store : https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204084.
Also please check if you have the latest version of the App.  I will also look into this at the design level to see if I could make the transactions more robust although I am following the guidelines.  Thank you for your comment it is the only way I can know about a problem and fix it.

### 3/5 — Des erreurs dans les contenus ?

*2023-08-01, version 4.1*

Je viens de télécharger l’application,  je voudrais signaler une erreur : une confusion entre Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475) et Michelangelo Pittatore (1825).

### 3/5 — Need to pay for quiz

*2020-04-15, version 1.4.1*

Only get to play quiz once, then need to pay.
No organisation to paintings.

### 4/5 — VISIONE ORIZZONTALE

*2023-12-11, version 4.4*

spero, con un prossimo aggiornamento, sia possibile vedere una versione orizzontale delle foto(sono dipinti, e molti corali, dunque l’orizzontale è necessario). Di conseguenza servono delle finestre a scomparsa che ottimizzino la visione orizzontale.

### 4/5 — Ludique et diversifié

*2023-08-12, version 4.3*

Appli sympa et distrayante ! Juste un petit bémol qui m’agace à chaque fois que je tombe dessus : Léonard de Vinci n’est pas né à Amboise mais à Vinci en Italie…

### 4/5 — Problème fermeture de l’appli

*2023-06-19, version 4.1*

L’appli est très bien les mouvements sont correctement nommé et précis et le catalogue d’œuvres et d’artistes est très bien fournis sur ça rien à dire. Dommage qu’on est pas la possibilité de zoomer nous mêmes sur les œuvres dans le mode Diaporama et dommage aussi de ne pas avoir l’année de création des œuvres et leurs dimensions dans un petit cartel avec le titre. Mais le problème majeur c’est que maintenant mon application se ferme sans arrêt quand je dois répondre au mouvement. Quand j’allume l’appli est que je sélectionne le mode Quiz avec toutes les galeries, je peux seulement reconnaître deux peintures et lorsque je clique sur le mouvement l’appli se ferme en même temps c’est dommage. Est il possible de régler ce problème ?

### 4/5 — Great for learning important western artists

*2020-01-11*

I was looking for a game or quiz that covered history and this popped up. It’s a great tool for periods and styles influenced by the times the artists lived in making it a satisfying study of historical events.

There are two things I would change: 1) I would add world artists and 2) I would change the display for learning. As the painting moves down and to the right, eventually leaving the screen, it does this weird jitter that makes me feel nauseous. If I was epileptic, I would probably have a seizure.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comments, I work alone and having feedback is essential to improve. I had not notice the weird way the slide show in the App was now unrolling. It was not designed that way but with the last  iOS version has changed its behaviour. I will correct this in the next version. Thank you again.
Edited response:
For your information I modified the App so the slide show is now back to normal. The new version is 1.4. It should be updated automatically, if not just reload manually.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2026-03-19*

I took art history when I went to university many years ago. As another reviewer noted, it is a great refresher. I am enjoying the app a lot and everything I studied is coming back to me but with a tenfold appreciation, and as a much older and wiser adult!  Much better than any apps out there! Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Bellissima!

*2025-11-29, version 4.5*

L’app è molto bella, ma sarebbe bello se aggiungeste ulteriori opere d’arte e anche altrettanti artisti.

### 5/5 — Spesso durante il gioco l’app si chiude da sola

*2025-07-25, version 4.4*

Gioco meraviglioso ma non riesco a passare la barriera dei 50 round di risposte esatte consecutive poiché spesso durante il gioco l’app si chiude autonomamente da sola e devo riprendere daccapo 🥹🥹🥹

### 5/5 — Learn art

*2025-06-08, version 4.4*

Test your knowledge great app

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2024-06-06*

Thank you for your time and for your heart and for your beautiful app! I truly enjoy it. I do not usually spend money on apps and there’s so many that are worthy of it. Yours definitely is! Thank you so much!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind comments. I have worked many, many hours on this app and it is always encouraging to receive positive feedback!

### 5/5 — Love it but it needs zoom

*2024-04-02, version 4.4*

The App is great. I love the way you learn about the artists and movements in a comprehensive way. But I wish there was an option to zoom in on the pictures when you read about the artist. I sometimes want to look at how they used thier brushstrokes or some paintings are so big that looking at the details becomes impossible at the small scale of the fixed picture. Everything else is awesome :)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-03-23*

This is a fun and easy to use art history app. Love spending a few minutes each day on it. I appreciate the simple and straightforward interface. Thank you! Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** I'm glad you like my app. It's always comforting to know that my work is appreciated.

### 5/5 — Top du top

*2024-03-17, version 4.4*

Pour moi c’est super, le zoom sur les oeuvres serait un plus et des notice en face à face des oeuvre pourrait améliorer la lecture. Félicitation.

### 5/5 — thanks to whoever built this

*2023-12-06*

don’t stop the dream

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. It's always nice to know that the work I've done and the app itself is appreciated.

### 5/5 — Super appli simple et ludique

*2023-08-14, version 4.3*

On aimerait bien sûr qu’il y ait plus de tableaux mais surtout que l’on puisse zoomer pour voir les détails. Merci en tout cas !
