Not worth the yearly fee. I subscribed to this on a whim, but unfortunately forgot to unsubscribe. I forget what the amount was - $60? $80? for the year - and it was taken from my bank account. Admittedly this is my fault - and I'm keeping the app on principle. But I honestly don't ever use it - I have no interest in art. I realize this is ignorant, but art serves no purpose in the business world. So I'm rating this as a 1 because I feel like I got shafted and I'm butt-hurt over it.

Loved this when I started but after getting through a few 'levels' I noticed that there seemed to be loads less information about the art work and subject matter. Which was really disappointing as those paintings (etc) which had all the extra bits were really interesting and Ive been left wanting more :-) I also noticed that later rounds seemed to be almost always, who painted this and very rarely, what was this called. That's the only thing stopping me giving this 5/5 .

A nice way of getting more familiar with art history. I like to have a wide base of knowledge that will make a me a good listener. It really helps to have just enough knowledge to ask good questions. This app won't make you an expert. But I am able to follow what someone else is saying and then ask questions about things I am familiar with related to that. People get so excited that someone will actually talk art history with them!
