Took me a few accidental goes to get the full screen map on my iPhone (just tap the map!) but why not on the iPad version! Or am I missing something. Info is good and useful but can't give it a 5 - yet! ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-11-10, version 7.0* Great app, very easy to use and full of interesting info. Includes rankings, stats, atlas, flag images, descriptions etc. You can find the info/stats you are looking for really fast. There is a global entry for the whole World (enter 'world' in the search bar). Global facts and stats about our whole planet! I find that genuinely interesting. Works offline (even the map/atlas part of the app). ### 5/5 — Excellent *2014-05-24, version 6.02* I do not agree with the previous reviewer. The app reflects the data from the most recent census. Great app! ### 4/5 — UK. *2014-04-24, version 6.02* In the UK, there are 4 countries. It would be nice if they were acknowledged as they all have separate parliaments and Scotland is vying for independence. Also, UK information is very out of date. Still showing 2001 census. There was one in 2011. For 2014 edition, it's not very 2014. Apart from that, fascinating amount of information. ### 4/5 — Very good but.... *2014-03-12, version 6.0* As per usual there are no separate listings for England, Scotland Northern Ireland and Wales. We ARE single countries! ### 5/5 — Need more map *2014-03-12, version 6.0* Need more map ### 4/5 — Good but needs some stuff *2014-03-03, version 6.0* It needs the capability to compare two countries at a time. Otherwise good. Thanks for the app. It is very good ### 5/5 — Excellent *2013-09-19, version 5.2* Great app! ### 4/5 — Out of date *2013-09-14, version 5.2* Australia needs to be updated 'cause Julia Gillard is not longer the PM that "other" guy is. ### 5/5 — Excellent App!!!!! *2013-06-22, version 5.2* I have several of these types of apps, but this one is my very favorite!!! Runs slick and smoothly and gives me all the information about every country that I need. Beautifully done!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Buggy *2025-03-28, version 9.8* Unable to switch between countries ### 1/5 — Does not work on ipad pro *2018-01-05, version 8.04* Useless Waste of money Customer service did not resoond to my problem They stole my money ### 1/5 — Does NOT Run *2017-12-22, version 8.04* Launch app on small iPad Pro. It freezes on the splash screen. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2017-09-04, version 7.8* Literally just paid for what can simply be found online using search engine. ### 1/5 — Nothing *2017-07-02, version 7.8* I am using the iPad Pro 10.5. I launch the app and absolutely nothing happens except a large white screen. I wrote the developer and no reply. Stay away from this app.. ### 1/5 — App not working and poor technical support *2014-03-21, version 6.02* I bought this app a few weeks ago and I never managed to get it to work on my new iPad. The app simply hangs on the load screen. I contacted the tech support for help and it's been over a week now and I'm still waiting for just any answer. Lousy support. ### 2/5 — Good in parts …. *2025-06-02, version 9.8* Like the maps but the statistics are years out of date. ### 2/5 — Good if you want a very general picture, otherwise poor; terrible interface *2017-06-14, version 7.8* There's some good information here if you want a general picture of each country. Enough to warrant the £2 price tag, probably. But specifics are poor - for example the UK is the third largest economy in Europe, apparently, after Germany and France. No, it isn't. Whether you take the IMF, World Bank or United Nations measures, the UK is more than 10% larger than France in 2016 and 2015. The bizarre thing is that when you look at the app's own figures for GDP in those two years, UK is bigger than France. What? Also, the interface is really poor. You can search for a country (actually a nation state - you can't search for "England" for example) and that's it. No Browse. There's a map view but it's very basic and you can't interact with it. Overall the app is poor - I'm sure I'll refer to it from time to time when I'm going somewhere new on holiday and it'll give me some basic facts. But I trust the specifics less than I trust Wikipedia...so...y'know... ### 3/5 — Nice but not... *2017-06-13, version 7.8* So I want to check up on family members who are away in Sardinia, I found it manually... but there were no results for it when I searched for it through the search tool. Huh? So not 4* or 5*. ### 4/5 — Works fine *2018-08-09, version 8.04* I don't have the iPad Pro. Haven’t had any problems. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app... *2017-12-30, version 8.04* ...HATE the new App Store ### 5/5 — Great *2016-12-15, version 7.6* I enjoy this app very much. The wealth of information provided in this app is amazing, spanning from a short history/background info and political situation to the lots of interesting facts and figures on people and geography etc. The UI is fast and works offline (including the built-in world map). It's a great investment for anyone wanting to know more about the world we live in. The iPad optimized interface is a nice addition. ### 5/5 — Still love it *2016-12-11, version 7.6* A very comprehensive reference work on countries of the world. It delivers lots of information, spanning from a short history and the political situation to the lots of interesting facts and figures on people and geography. I especially love the different country rankings (for example: life expectancy, co2 emission, obesity etc. there are a lot of them). The app also has a zoomable offline/online map. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-04-10, version 7.4* Works great, I use it everyday. ### 5/5 — Great App *2016-04-04, version 7.4* Simply - the best. ### 5/5 — 5 star *2016-03-25, version 7.4* This application is great! Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — Great *2016-03-17, version 7.4* Very informative! ### 5/5 — FACT BOOK: excellent, far superior than competitors *2016-02-13, version 7.2* Best fact book by far. Easy to use, excellent information, and, both online and offline maps. Highly recommend as efficient resource for looking up information on countries. ### 5/5 — How every application should try and be like *2015-11-27, version 7.2* Amazing look Quick search bar to find a country Offline No ads Does not bug you for in app purchases Very accurate information for many countries Never crashes Great for any school or job that needs country information and statistics One of the best and most useful apps I have ever owned! 10/10 ### 5/5 — Ok... *2015-04-09, version 7.2* Cool Beans. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
