### 5/5 — Great!

*2017-08-05, version 1.2*

This is so interesting because it's tells you more thing about the Second World War like Operation Barbarossa, D–Day, Evacuation of Dunkirk and more stuff, Great for education.
Keep the good work this historical app.

### 5/5 — Love ww2 history but

*2013-03-04*

I know WAY MORE FAXTS THAN THIS DUMB APP!

### 3/5 — No sound

*2012-11-01*

Nice app but can't get the sound to work so it is limited.

### 1/5 — You can also read Wikipedia

*2012-10-15*

Cut and pasted ffrom Wikipedia

### 4/5 — Great App, some inaccuracies

*2012-04-24*

This app is great - easy to navigate with lots of interesting content. There were a few inaccurate points here and there, and the multimedia content lacked perspective since it was mostly newsreel footage from the time, rather than a more modern commentary. Nevertheless, a good app. The extra content is worth purchasing.

### 3/5 — Misleading free

*2012-03-24*

It is not free. Only the content of the year 1940 is available, the other is locked until app purchase for 4.99$. The content is fair, no extensive coverage of events nor battles. The maps are awful. Liked the concept but could have been better, but the free thing is misleading.

### 5/5 — very nice

*2012-02-14, version 1.1*

quite happy to pay the extra well worth the money

### 1/5 — Needs In App purchase

*2012-02-12, version 1.1*

Not free. You get a single chapter, the rest are £2.99.

### 3/5 — World War 2 Interactive

*2012-01-13*

Good content, but type is too small. There should be some way to enlarge the font size to make reading easier...you cannot enlarge by the usual iPad moves. Please fix.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2011-12-16*

Very interesting. I paid to unlock the other parts of this app and I love it. I have been interested in the Holocaust for many years and now I have it at the tip of my finger tips. Thanks for making this app.
