Geo Walk - World Factbook 3D App Reviews

This update adds in-app purchases, and I spent too much money on brains in Zombie Farm! Please pull back this update forever.

So, if you are looking to explore the world a little bit, quiz yourself, keep up with major historical events, and look cool in front of your friends (or really nerdy depending on your friends) this is the app for you. Basically, there are a few different "modes" (thats what the developers refer to them as) in this app. For example, one mode allows you to toggle a 3D globe, and then explore things indigenous to the region you decide to stop at. Another mode asks questions about historical events, figures, or people and then allows you to pick the correct answer via a multiple choice answer stem (which are different pictures). Importantly, the incorrect choices have an explanation and they allow you to keep choosing until you make the correct choice (which also has an explanation). Anyway, the other mode just gives you random pictures with an excerpt (but they dont show you the excerpt until you click the photo so you can kind of quiz yourself in this mode too). Anyway, if you like this app, I would recommend also getting Art Authority, 50 places, Star Walk, Louvre HD, Naturetap, and World Atlas. That way, you can pretty much explore the universe and everything in it....and, at the same time, be as cool as me.

Great picts and interesting facts...too many typographical and other tense/usage errors. Needs some clean-up!

This is a great app that just keeps getting better! This is the app I use for a little downtime. I learn a lot of interesting facts and see beautiful photos. My grandchildren also really enjoy it. Initially I had a few problems with this app. The experts at Vito Technology got back with me within 24 hours to correct it. Impressive!

This is a good learning experience for me. I love history and all that it has to offer. This is awesome!!!!!! Thanks a lot!!! Love the upgrades.

Opens up all kinds of new options to explore. Thanks for some glimpses where I wouldnt have thought to go.

i Have it for sometime. I enjoy it soo much.

For a few bucks, this is definitely a bargain! You get to learn new things everyday. Updated facts. I just hope soon they make this interactive so kids will enjoy as well.

Great app! Not really a bug but the sos slide says information on molly brown

I thought this was going to have more information rather than short little factoids. Also the resolution is poor and You can tell it was written by a non native English speaker because some of the questions and statements are so awkwardly written you have no idea what they are trying to say. Nice idea, but I wish I wouldnt have bought it.

But still a very informational app. I like their other apps starwalk and solarwalk better, but I think thats because Im a bit of a space buff. This company makes some quality informational apps.

This is the app you are looking for to use in your classroom the kids love it and are always asking to use it. I can not believe how much they have learned and retained from using this app. There is nothing else to say!

The app is entertaining and the pictures are good. However, the grammar and sentence structure are very poor. An app that sells itself as a type of encyclopedic reference should be vetted and/or reviewed fully before it is released to the public. However, that being said, its still a fun little program to learn some random trivia or share with your kids.

I have purchased the additional cards and for 24 hours they were showing downloading. I have reinstalled the app and now the "add more crds" options are no longer available. I am hoping to get some help from the developer or I will have to consider it a big scam... I have just waited $2.99

I like the concept and even the interface isnt bad, HOWEVER, I am disappointed that there are only 568 short fact cards to read and then you have to buy more card packs. For the price I was expecting more. You should do updates and add free packs for those who purchased this app and then I would raise my rating.

The interface is very good so is the concept. Nevertheless, the content is too few and you have to buy it if you want to see more.

It has very little info cards, its like browsing through a souvenir card gondola. The price misleads you into thinking that your getting more value, it is not a $2.99 app. I also found a card labeled Eucalyptus that is clearly not an Eucalyptus tree, How many wrong cards are out there? (Hover over to Australia)

To say this app offers very little information is a gross understatement. As another reviewer remarked, the information is not without errors. This is entirely unacceptable for any learning application. Lastly, for what you receive from this app, it is extremely overpriced. I like the layout, but sadly thats about the only positive remark I can offer. Add content please.

Glitzy graphics with no substance. Descriptions of animals are superficial with just one static photo. It has less information than an encyclopedia, even Wikipedia offers more interesting information. Plus the locations are limited. I was expecting information that was local to the pacific northwest of theU.S.

First picture my child looked at was mislabeled. The pictured labeled Willis Tower is actually the John Hancock building. Makes me wonder what else is wrong.
