Encyclopædia Britannica

Be kinder

Helps me in History and other subjects so much, I have used this for reference ever since. Great job!

Affordable and nice interface. It's comforting to know the material was written and vetted by experts in the field as well. It would help if the text could be exported to a reader application or had a narrator built right in.

Do not take this app as it is extremely hard to cancel.

Like the quizzes section nowadays, but please assure that the full answers you provide are accurate. My score might be higher if you do! As well, could you address this related topic? The Roman Empire created the Province of Palestine under their rule. True or False?

Frightful loading images at times. Frustrating searches. I am so disappointed. I just cancelled my subscription. Definitely not worth the $70+ yearly subscription.

Can’t flip through words sleamlessly clunky app

I’ll start by saying the content here is great, and it’s written in clear and concise language, which makes it very readable. However, it feels like not much care has been taken in designing the app or in linking articles. The app itself is pretty bare bones and lacks many obvious QoL features. You can’t search favorited articles, even if you have hundreds, and you can’t add bookmarks in the middle of longer articles. For some inexplicable reason, saved and favorited articles are sorted in lexicographical rather than alphabetical order, such that all the articles with capitalized titles come before all of them with lowercase titles. I can live with that. What’s most frustrating is the number of broken links I’ve encountered in the few days I’ve been using the app, and worse, incorrectly linked articles. For instance, a link in a section of the Computer Science article discussing Apple Inc. takes you to an article on the fruit, and one in the gender dysphoria article links to the article on grammatical gender. It feels like the whole thing has been slapped together.

Some links just say “Error”. The app is outdated and needs to be updated. Content is fantastic.

Can not sign in after purchase.Paid for app in 11/23. Can not sign in. Can’t even find a customer service to contact. DO NOT PURCHASE. Use available sources such as your public library. I gave it one star simply for the content. First time I’ve been compelled to write such a negative review.
