User reviews

Very Informative

I enjoy this app, even though I live in North America

Useful

It's very useful for marine education.

AM app

Absolutely awesome app for Kiwi kids (and inquisitive adults). Thank you Auckland Museum.

Very good but needs more content

Wouldn't mind paying a bit more for something a little more comprehensive. For a free app it is most impressive, though.

We'll done!

Got it right! Good on you Auckland Museum!!!
