The History of Everything

The History of Everything is a vertical timeline that allows you to navigate, explore, and compare events from the Big Bang to the birth of the Internet. Events are beautifully illustrated and animated.

The concept for this app was inspired by the Kurzgesagt video, Time: The History & Future of Everything.

The app is open source!

Great app. Perfect for finding important events in history. Just wish it had era names in the top-right corner (Middle Ages, Neolithic Era, etc.), and it only has a few historical entries. No french revolution, Chinese inventions or dynasties, etc. And, I would like to be able to see only 1 Country or continent's timeline, instead of it all being joined together. Overall, it's great, but it could be better.

I really love the app. It does what it says with beautiful animations. Currently I'm on the Humans section in the second chapter 'Life On Earth'. I want more apps like this from the devs. I like that every topic section provides just enough details about it but some of the topics had very little information. One thing which really annoys me is the inability to select a word to copy or open in WordWeb. Please make another app like this.

Definitely one of the best ways to scroll to the history of humans, animals, life on earth and the earth itself. The app is so refined and looks absolutely gorgeous, usage is as easy as if I have been using "The History of Everything" for decades already, so intuitive! Just an amazingly well put together App. Well Done!

This app has a great potential! I love the time line layout. It would be awesome to add more historical events and more detailed description of these events or maybe some links for those, who want to know more. It needs these upgrades!

really nice material design, looks fresh and beautiful, but it's missing a lot of important historical events, it's still new so I'm going to give it 5 stars for now, i hope that the devs keep on updating the app and add more content and features like copying texts and adding links to websites that provide more information if we want to know more about a topic, also adding an option to search for the definition of a word when touching and holding it would be much appreciated

the controls aren't optimal. the app is very contradictory with its name. The history of everything doesn't even have 20% of history in it. its missing a lot. (for example the latest history they have is creation of www) the graphics are neat and really good. the app has a lot of potential, but as of now its at its infancy

Really cool app to learn or take a refresher about history! You can start at the beginning or jump around to periods that interest you. Even those who claim to hate history will be able to find something that interests them. I love this app! Definitely a favorite!!

Wonderful graphics to back up a great idea. The historical information seem to not be completely accurate, but that doesn't really bother me since it's a timeline I just need. There aren't many events. Looking forward to more in the coming updates. Good job DV's!

This app does a very good job at the basics, but is very eurocentric in its teachings, completely ignoring the majority of the world. It has a good scale and an easy to use interface, definitely would recommend for kids but not anyone looking to dig deep.

This app has great graphics, but a lot of the information on here usually tells one, biased side, of the story. It does not have the full picture and I would be concerned if kids believed everything they read on here. Also, for an app named 'The History of Everything' it is heavily focused on Europe and America.

Not a lot of history in there at all, and what's in there is not well fleshed out. The entry for Constantinople just explains it's a city, it doesn't go into the fall of the city or what even happened with it. 2 stars is being generous, this feels like a school project.

This is a very good app,but I do have a problem with it. The app needs an UPGRADE. Some things need to be added,such as, Covid-19, slavery,and other big events that has or maybe still is happening. The last update was 12/26/2018. It is 2021. I am very disappointed, but it is a very educational app. It just lacks some progression

Very nice app to know introduction many events of history . Although description of events is short and sweet. Very easy to use and language is so simple , so kids can easily understand . Presentation and animation is also amazing , looks very good visually . No useless advertisements . Its totally worth to give time to this app .

Really great animations and artwork. And the design of the app is nice and works well for quickly flipping through entries. The actual amount of content is a little sparse, though, I assume more will be coming.

The graphics are glichy. There is a lot of empty space in time. Hardly any topics of history to choose from and hardly any history lessons. You cannot search famous people from history. Got this app as a way learn farther into things and learn new things, but I was not able to learn on things I was intrested in. The app is a neat idea, but the experience is not that well. The app is not very interesting.

I like this app, but it only has one glitch. That is that it doesn't shows many eras between two big events. It skips them, literally. So if I'll open The Big Bang, after it in the timeline it will not show many processes of evolution. So please fix this. For now, I'll give it a four star. Thank you.

Great idea and nice graphics. I could see it becoming a very useful tool. But missing allot of important historical events. I don't think Martin Luther King, Marie Curie and Amelia Earhart are as historically important as the French and American revelation, the fall of slavery, Nicola Tesla, Albert Einstein and the fall of the Berlin wall. Looking forward to updates though. Keep up the good work.

It's a good initiative, though it would be awesome if all of the world history was included. Remembering becomes easier through visualization. That's what this app delivers.

Pretty great app. Just not much to look at. Need to expand on the life of the solar system. Like Theia creating the moon, and Saturn moving inward until it got caught in the gravity of Jupiter. There's so much to expand on I feel like it's really a bare app as it is but has a lot of potential.

Deb. D. Jan 20, 2019     

really nice idea. i love the animations and the chronological order the information is presented it. but at the moment the app's history is a bit scarce, maybe add a feature so that users could add more History in there

love to say that, it's the best curiosity app I have ever find, because of its amazing hardwork in the visuals, it's very effective and efficient the way we can understand. You can find lots of contents which will help you, Your feature to favourites is the best which I liked the most.

The app itself is functional. It is a timeline of all of human history, but it has so few events, and so many obvious absences. They have Martin Luther King, the Moon Landing, and the World Wide Web, but no Vietnam, no Kennedy Assassination, and no Cuban Missile Crisis. No Korean War listed either. No Battle of Hastings in 1066. If fact there don't seen to be any wars listed other than WW1 and WW2. Not even the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865 is on there. Lacking. For now.

Dav. W. Jan 17, 2019     

Great concept, but incomplete and selective world history. If there's a plan to populate events, this app could become great, otherwise it will wither.

Ian. H. Feb 6, 2019     

I love the timeline but there arent enough data entry points. You could merge databases with wikipedia if you wanted to, or just produce more entries, but until then this app is a promising proof of concept and nothing more.

Luk. R. Mar 24, 2019     

The design and layout is great, and I liked how it explained things without going into too much detail. But the app doesn't cover many events or periods, there were probably only up to 50.

Ali. S. Apr 28, 2020     

Pretty great app. Easy to use. However in my opinion it would be wonderful and super useful to be able to be able to chose from other languages. Also maybe history in general would be great.

Igg. W. Jan 19, 2019     

LOOKS MARVELLOUS! Just keep updating the app with new info and graphics, because history is much much more than a handful of major events. Keep up the fantastic work.
