The broad amount of data, well researched, current, correct and detailed - is matched by no other app I know of. When you consider why it was made, makes its accuracy unsurprising. Shame we cannot access the data the CIA consider confidential. Otherwise it's superb.

Everybody admits crime is every where... Then y dont u show usa crime data on this app.. Dont spread hates.. Spread love plz...

This app is nice but I hope you to change information about Korea and Japan. Sea of Japan is wrong name of Eastsea (Sea of Korea). Most of world maps were using that name until 19cen but, during russo japanese war they took the sea illegally. However, after Korean War U.S.A and UN declared that every regions plundered by Japan must return to Korea. So after WW2 Eastsea(Sea of Korea) is home of Korean again. I strongly recommend you to change information Sea of Japan to Eastsea (Sea of Korea).

No jokes...this is probably one of the best apps in the world. The detailing is absolutely amazing! I have no idea what to do with all this information I swear. It has everything you could ever want or need to know...all in one app!

India's map is incorrectly presented showing part of Kashmir to Pakistan which is actually PoK(Pak occupied Kashmir) and GoI has already passed regulations to not to do so. Do correct it. Its Malafide. Rest app is useful.

Some of the information are outdated already. Like that of the Economy and Government. It's been last year since the last update. Hope that you will give a up to date information. Love your app though.

D70%
by D####:

Indeed it is from CIA World factbook, but, there are extra facts after the "quick fact" button. This app mostly contain some of bad side of other countries, US citizen must be very careful to go to another country, I must scroll the alliance button endless because the ribbon it is just too long for me.

Great handy fact book however wud be great if latest data could be updated at least monthly or even quarterly... Some data seems quite outdated... But for all purposes of getting an idea about the information, this is a great app...

D70%
by D####:

I have been a fan of the actual book since I was a kid. But to be able to have it at your finger tips is almost as cool (because you can never out do an actual good book). If there is anything you could want to know geographically or geopolitically about our awesome planet, this is the app for you.

I70%

App is very nice and useful.useable. but one thing, I didn't see is that, when was the data taken and source of data. That's crucial because some data are rapidly changing.

I do not know where the autho r of this program, basing these data by this program? although the history of the Balkans is a bit complicated for others, data could have been much better based. look on wikipedia . org uninstalling

by D####:

I'm a A level geography student and this is really useful and interesting. Could you add places such as Crimea, Chechnia, Abhazka etc... Also could you add more about the history of all the countries because A)interesting and B) very useful. Also could you add flag information such as how they came about to use it etc... and be able to zoom in closer on maps

U70%

I'm a little confused about the map though, the picture shows some countries being highlighted. You also said that the map is now interactive and that you can view alliances on it.

In North top side, you removed the jammu and Kashmir part. But reality and present is that Kashmir as Whole part is in Indian territory. So update India map as the Jammu and Kashmir is the part of it.

Gr8 app. Loved the way it's classified and easy of use. Have it installed on my phone. Would highly recommend it to students and schools to use regularly. Downside. Would recommed regular updates esp for current affairs.Last update for Canada seemed regarding refugees is 2014. Whereas Canada took in Syrian refugees in Dec 2015.

Very concise and informative. Good side-by-side comparison function. Some more arcane econometric indexes could use a brief glossary.

D70%
by D####:

There is no mention of Safety & Security under 'US of the A'. But other countries are shown in bad light, like caution for sex crimes and other crimes. They're no saints here...

Would be better if I could change the initial display order permanently rather than having to do it each time I open the app. I don't want it by gdp... ever...

Best app to learn about world facts. Very nice user interface. Only 2 things I can say 1) The map should be colourful like different colours for different countries and country labels should be there. 2) The whole app is in dark theme it will look better if it has a light theme. By the way very good app. Thanks ☺
