Useless for Indians! There must be different versions of the app that can be selected from the settings country wise!
I installed it yesterday but I've fallen in love with it already. Thank you for creating such a comprehensive brilliant app :)
App is good and does its job fairly well. However there's a few things I want to point out: 1)When creating a custom event, you cannot go further back than 1900. This is a problem since there are events that Wikipedia (understandably) doesn't consider worth listing, that I want to add for myself, but this arbitrary limit severely hinders customization; 2)There should be a way to set notifications to trigger one day (ideally more) before a certain date or event, or at least show up in the widget.
I use this App every day. Very interesting. I bought the license to remove the ads, but somehow, my license disappeared, and the ads came back! And every time I try to restore my license or buy another, nothing happens. Frustrating... Amendment: Alex responded right away via email regarding my issue. After several suggestions, we both agreed the issue was with my phone (I had recently updated the OS with an android Update). As it turns out, the problem stems from Google Play Store/Games not recognizing my previous purchase. Alex was very responsive and willing to help. Thanks again Alex!
Recently I became more and more intrigued with history and I even planned on making a calendar in which I would record historical events and with that have an overview over every day. I hoped this would help me connect historical dates in my mind...Turns out that this is a hell of work, so I gave up. Today, half a year later, I stumbled across this app that not even fulfills my expectations, but even exceeds it! (It's even available in many different languages...!) I highly recommend this app!!!
The app keeps crashing. It would also be nice to be able to save your filter settings, so you dont have to reset them every time you open the app after it crashes. UPDATE - Customer Service helped me work through the problem. App is now working great. Excellent communication from Customer Service.
Wonderful app for learning about events related to history. The app is very simple and easy to use which saves a lot of my time. I love how the sections have been divided into categories. I like the calendar countdown and summary when you open the app. Kudos to the developer for building a good no nonsense app.
Whenever I get a notice of something that looks interesting then go to it I am annoyed that I can't find the event or date that I got the notice for. I do enjoy the app, but I would prefer it if it take me to where it's sending . I made this review 2 months ago. It STILL hasn't been fixed ! Am seriously considering uninstalling .
This is a great app for all history buffs out there. I check it everyday to get my daily history lesson. The one thing i would suggest to make this app better is to add a feedback option. There are some things that I've noticed that either aren't entirely true, or the picture doesn't match the event/person. For instance, on March 2nd, for 1127, on the event of the assassination of Charles the Good, it shows a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald, which has nothing to do with it. Otherwise a great app 😁
Excellent. Brimming with (properly linked) information, presented nicely and easy to read/interact with. The info given is pertinent and interesting. Daily notifications about historical events are a nice touch. Gets you reading about other entries in the app. Works a charm, no glitches or bugs. Highly recommended.
Well you yourself describe this app perfectly. It's all copied from Wikipedia. When is anybody going to learn that you can't trust anything that's on Wikipedia because it's just anybody's opinion and what they think that it is. It isn't absolute fact and people can go in and change it whenever they want to. The dates in here are messed up. There are so many grammar issues as well. Which goes back to copying it from Wikipedia. In although I really love the idea and the setup of this app. I didn't get through to the point of seeing if it had a widget or not which is cool. I like to learn history a lot and my generation I'm pretty positive it's the last one that's totally you can get a care. So I really hope that people can get on the ball with Wikipedia so that when it is used in every other site app and program the information is backed up and legitimate
Very interesting. Nice interface and user friendly. I was hoping to learn more non-political gems of information. More inventions & discoveries and even fun tidbits. There are dates of tragadies and wars, kings and queens and people and places of import in history. You can choose the time period your most interested in. And lots of links to click to learn more. I was hoping for more fun and positive trivia (especially England 1700s -1800). There is some. I did not get this free for review.
Highly enjoyable app. Sorry, I was thinking I'd keep the last star for emergencies, but what the heck! Here's one more. Knock yourselves out! 😂👍🍾
Really good if you want to learn more History. You get acquainted to lots of historical events. The problem is that it is extremely Eurocentric. If it were to include events of a global nature, it would be a perfect app.
UPDATED RVW|RATING: Thanks so much; for getting back to me & for the updates! PRIOR RVW: Keeps erroring out everytime i try to export an event. And right after i paid for PREMIUM ACCESS (so that i could export events and eliminate pop-up ads#)? I had a long popup video ad! Otherwise? Seems to be working fine & has MANY different assortments of events; could use more events from Ancient Africa, Ancient Egypt, etc. (i.e., more about ancient times; like Ancient Africa-Egypt-Mesopotamia, etcetera).
A very good, and well thought app that is both informative and intelligent. A refreshing change when you consider the amount of total garbage currently available on some of the other apps of the same type. well done folks and thanks.
Couldn't give a simple timeline, very little organisation in the information maybe okay if your looking for random history trivia but no way to look at events in an organized way without constantly switching tabs, the date, and going to the search bar.
The app's content is great. It has a problem with an update process that seems to run almost all the time. If the updates could be completed in a reasonable time, it would earn a 4.5 stars. A droid user.
Love this app. The only negative would be to have the ability to pick the types of backgrounds that are showing. I for example don't care about sports it would be nice to not see sports people or events other then that perfect job
I really like this app but there's one thing that is driving me nuts. It refers to the 'events on this day in history' as 'random' which is just not what the word 'random' means. Maybe if it were arbitrarily selecting the events from 'this day in history' to show me, I'd consider that a form of randomization...
I enjoy history it is fun to read at my fingertips daily. Extended facts about the historical are available with a click. The graphics are very colorful.
Dont know what you have done to this app but can't get any information what so ever now about a person take the app back to the way it was (dont fix something that wasn't broken)
Wikipedia is not a place to pull information from zero stars needs to be an option
Great app. Just inserts a little history into your day. pretty bare bones but does exactly what it claims. links to wiki if you want detailed explanations of the material. I'm very glad I downloaded this. checking what interesting stuff happened today in history has become a part of my daily routine
It's okay now but what's the point of the quiz that gives points that are pointless find something to do with the points reward viewers so that they stay more interested and are possibly intrigued to want to pay for the premium upgrade aside from that you're just a day-to-day encyclopedia fix that and get back to me Also where is the minority history located within the history highlights of the day it seems like only white people have held all the important historic moments in you timeline fixit
This app ia awesome. You would be provided with the minute details of the continuing date. Really love this app.❤️❤️❤️
It's been one of my favourite widgets of the past years. Lovely app, very informative and a must have for anyone interested in historical events.
This is a great app to get a true feel for history. So many important events happened that are rarely thought of or remembered in modern society. They might not impact our days but many of them changed the course of humanity even if only a small amount. Only critique is the lack of events from below the equator. The Incas and Myans and so much of Africa had important events also.
I used to love the Historical Calender Widget but hey, it seems the widget has a problem. The texts are messy and overlay on top of each other. Please fix it.
