### 3/5 — Ok

*2025-12-14, version 1.2.2*

Good information, poorly presented

### 4/5 — The best mammal app for Africa

*2023-11-05*

The most comprehensive app Ive found on African mammals. It could use more photos especially for the small and medium animals which seem to have varying color morphs, but it’s still the best available.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2021-01-08, version 1.1*

I was looking forward to having a great mammals app for R300, but I ended up with an app that won’t let me listen to the sound of the animal more than once and for specific animals it won’t let me view them and when I try to view them it causes my whole screen to freeze. Please try and fix this creators.

### 3/5 — The app has great potential

*2020-10-20*

Hi guys..
When you are looking at the photos of the animals..you can’t seem to switch to the video..
You have to close the program and go back into it,to see the videos
Other than that..
It’s a great app
