Clear overall map of the world. One tap gets you a quick summary of the country. Another simple tap get you greater detail from Wiki. Easy to use.
The maps are to close for perspective and a pinch out goes directly to whole world view. Also some of the scroll wheels wont scroll all the way down. Seems like a good concept, just needs work.
Fine for a brief overview of any country's map, but don't buy the close ups. They are the same map, but no better resolution.
The details are very misleading, suggesting you can zoom all the way in with the free version, but you cannot. When you start to zoom, you are prompted to purchase or upgrade. You can cancel the option, but you cannot zoom any further in. Whether that option is available in the paid version or not, I do not know, but if I am going to pay for an app like this, I would rather pay for the National Geographic app.
I can't believe this developer thinks anyone would keep this app on their iPhone/iPad. Every time you touch anything, a request to upgrade comes up. As it is, maps just show continents. You try to zoom in and the upgrade request comes up. I deleted it immediately. What a waste.
Gives you basic maps, and good explanations about flags and their meanings, but the other parts would be great if they worked. Currency Converter failed, World Weather failed, Time Zone failed. Compare Country (not sure about accuracy of the data) worked and so did the Atlas glossary. Sometimes the back button didn't work, either. This is a good tool for free, but the rest has to be fixed before it would be worth buying.
This app was very useful to me for any information about the countries of the world but it’s an irony of fate that I can’t use this app anymore after updating my iOS version to 11. So it’s my unrest request to the developers to update the app suitable to iOS 11.
