Bringing Geography and Earth Science to Life
Merge HoloGlobe is an amazing educational app that transforms the way students learn about our planet. Instead of simply looking at maps or reading from a textbook, students can hold a 3D globe in their hands and explore Earth in an interactive and engaging way.
The visualizations are impressive and make complex concepts easier to understand. Students can explore geography, weather patterns, Earth's systems, and global phenomena in a way that feels immersive and memorable. The ability to rotate, zoom, and interact with the globe helps students make connections that are often difficult to achieve through traditional instruction.
What I appreciate most as an educator is how naturally the app sparks curiosity. Students ask more questions, engage in deeper discussions, and become active participants in their learning. The app is easy to use, visually stunning, and provides a unique learning experience that keeps students interested and excited.
Merge HoloGlobe is an excellent addition to any classroom and a fantastic example of how augmented reality can make learning both fun and meaningful. Highly recommended for teachers, students, and anyone interested in exploring our world in a whole new way.

Full money focused
I downloaded this app, and tried to find out details about an artifact. I saw 5 different modes and click on one of them. It said I needed to download the app for that and downloaded. After figuring out that I picked the wrong one, I clicked on another yet it made me download another app. This app or company is trying to get people to download apps and make more money, as having one person use five of your apps will make a lot more money. I know I’m going to get some response or they will read this and stay quiet. Not cool.

Wonderful App!
Seeing the variety of views of Earth and the different systems really brings learning to life for students. There are so many opportunities for learning and exploring with this resource. Gone are boring lessons! With HoloGlobe, students can actually do their own investigations and see the processes happening while asking and answering questions.

Awesome
This is a unique app that brings the wonders of our planet into an interactive, augmented reality format. Its use of real time data from reputable resources like NOAA and NASA ensures that you receive accurate and timely information. While the experience is best with Merge Cube, the app still offers substantial value without it.

Fantastic App!

This app definitely gets 5 stars in my book! It works amazingly well and truly brings the Earth alive! Students’ abilities to connect their learning on a personal level is game-changing!

NASA experts!
I never knew watching weather, fire, and earthquake activity could be so gratifying! Students have always had a difficult time understanding weather, light, the atmosphere, and more from the pictures we have in text books! Hologlobe offers students an opportunity to feel like astronauts by viewing the happenings of Earth in real time. They can zoom in, move things around, and more! Plus! There are other lessons that take students into the ocean and beyond!

The cube has plenty of modes, like the current temperature. When I found where I live, it said it was 80 some degrees when outside it’s -4 degrees.

Hello, thank you for checking out the app! Sometimes the communication between the real time data we receive and our app have network issues, but it is currently active. If you continue to have mixed data, reach out to our support team via the Merge EDU website so we can assist at correcting the issue. Thanks again!
Love the real time data
Has been super powerful in my classrooms and students to hold real-time data in their hands!

Fantastic Educational Resource
Such a versatile product. This allows me to engage all students in a meaningful, hands-on way. The impact it has on memorable learning experiences continues through my year. This can be used in the classroom (individually or in groups), and digitally through online recourses. Whether you are a classroom teacher, online teacher, tutoring, or home schooling, this is the best investment you will ever make for your students.

Holding an interactive globe with real time data from NASA
This is really cool! You can hold an interactive globe looking at real time satellite data provided by NASA. What I like even better is placing the globe in the world 🌍
