History on the move

I saw this app advertised on Facebook and thought it sounded great. I am very impressed so far. At £4.99 this is an absolute bargain, a one off payment with no subscription fees. A fantastic app which means you can quickly look up the history of your surroundings in a couple of clicks, no more google searches. The audio facility to listen to the information as well as reading it is a great option. This app is a simple but very effective idea which has identified a gap in the market where those who are into local history are concerned. I wish the developers huge success with this because it deserves it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely review! We really appreciate it - every review, recommendation and share of LocoPast really does help spread the word and get the app into more hands. So, thank you! We're thrilled to hear you're finding LocoPast so valuable and enjoyable. Happy history hunting.

No subscription history

I hate how almost every app is a subscription these days. Seeing this app with no subscription and myself with a love of history it was a no brainer. It seems to pull all of its data from Wikipedia, but seeing it pictorially on a map, cracking idea. So let’s support the developer! Thanks for no subscription!

Huge thanks for such a supportive and kind review. We are thrilled you're enjoying using LocoPast. We're exploring lots of additional data sources to add even more historically significant stories, events and places in future updates. Have a wonderful day and happy history hunting!

Best App Ever!

I’ve been obsessed with History since I was a young lad and am forever buying books of places we visit, which often get skim read and then sit and gather dust. As an English Hertiage and National Trust Member, this app is going to be a game changer for me. Love it!

Really fun. Highly recommend!

Really interesting to learn more about the local area. I didn’t realise the places I pass every day have so much history. It’s also really fun to look at other places around the world. A definite download for those who love history and want to learn more!
