I liked this back in time when I had it installed a while ago. Giving it another go on a later phone. If i feel strongly, I'll update my review. There's seemingly a lot of intellectually challenged (not so smart) people reviewing this in s misguided manner. To bad, some people just don't get it. 🫤

Anything to uses Wikipedia as a reference point is not something to use for educational purposes to bad zero stars is not an option...

I like the app, just wish there was a way to filter out births and deaths. I don't care about sports so would find it useful to be able to filter that category of people out.

Hello, I like the app, I find it's the best of it's kind on the playstore. However I recently removed google services from my phone and the app crashes instantly. I'm using a lot of apps from the playstore without any issue. Could you please have a look at what requires google services in your code and maybe allow for a bypass if not present. Thank you

I love this! Easy to use, very interesting information; I like that it's one click to look up more info on any one item. If you're into history at all this is a great app.
