The app has a great design and is fun to use to get the kids interested in geography and world culture. But after finding several errors within minutes, I’m not sure how reliable the rest of information is. For example, Latvia’s currency is not Lat, it’s EUR since 2014, and Lithuania borders KalinINgrad Oblast, not Kalingrad. The old currency is listed as well. I’ve checked only a few European countries so far and am not sure the choice of highlights make sense. E.g. for Spain it shows Tower of La Giralda as a landmark. Why not Alhambra? It’s a world wonder even in Civilization. Not sure what was the train of thought behind some choices. The quizzes are also disappointing: it’s a choice between matching the flag and matching the shape. I have trouble having the kid to remember the capital cities (much more important information) and there seems to be no quiz for that. A lot of unrealized potential in this app.

The recent update makes it possible to do the different quizzes on an iPad, and it is now as it should be. The information is very helpful to learn more about regions or individual countries of the world. Very nice app and I will say that the makers of the app were responsive about fixing the glitches with the previous version!

The quiz feature has multiple glitches. Certain states won’t accept their matching flag and the only way to fix it is to exit the quiz and start all over again. It’s frustrating for me as an adult so I can’t imagine my kid finding it a fun learning experience. Also on some of the historic narratives some names are mispronounced. I think they could have done a better job on quality control before rolling this app out.
