App summary

The History of Everything is a vertical timeline that allows you to navigate, explore, and compare events from the Big Bang to the birth of the Internet. Events are beautifully illustrated and animated.

The concept for this app was inspired by the Kurzgesagt video, Time: The History & Future of Everything.

The app is open source!

Ridiculous selection of historical events. The early 20th century consists of Amelia Earhart, one of the first women who flew a plane in the 1930s, and the suffrages. Apparently this is more important to know than the invention of printing press, penicillin, electricity, nuclear weapons, and both world wars. The editors are either ignorant or malicious.

The scrolling is kind of glitchy. Sometimes you tap on an event and it sends you back up to the last one you saw. Sometimes when scrolling (especially with the modern history section) it just won't display any events. Also there's a lot missing. This app has a grand idea, and I really like it, but I read everything in like two hours. The writing isn't spectacular either, and could use more specific scientific and historical claims. You guys should have a summary and then an in-depth explanation.

Very good UI , also the information and the transition between events is very smooth, however one thing that is missing is more charcters and details also more events , i think i finshed the app in three hours skipping a few articles
