World History Maps: The World

Slide bar seems to be hard to press and changes app page instead of sliding through years. Overall good app

My hope was merely a reliable and objective source. This isn’t it. Many glaring errors, (like major bodies of water, actual names of nations, etc., reveal that special blend of raw ignorance and cultural bias. Whose bias? Just look at the map and see if it doesn’t scream out at you the national perspective of the 5th rate brain(s) that cranked this out. That presumes you, like me, let them sucker you into spending money on this. Ridiculous that they charge you for maps unworthy of grade schoolers. Is it any wonder we live in a dangerous world beginning with the simple inability to correctly identify nations and features.

The map looks terrible, especially zoomed in. If you expect to see Sumeria’s cities, look for a different map. For 5 bucks it isn’t bad. However your description regarding detail is highly misleading, earning you one star.

THE DEVELOPER SPENT ALOTTA TIME AND I SUPPORT HIM OMG THIS IS SO GOOD I LITERALLY USED IT ON 12:00PM SO WELL BUY IT IF YOU WANT OR ON YOUR PARENTS PERMISSION

What a rip off . Does show how borders and territories changed by the years by the sliding bar , but when you click on to a country it takes you to the free Wikipedia page. When you follow the instructions to zoom in on the map you get nothing. No cities, geographical information, nothing. Please don’t even consider this crap. And if this is an example of the other two map apps they offer skip them also

I SAW A GLITCH! FROM 1860 TO 1880 😫😫

I would suggest that an audit be done as you are missing the accession of Alexander the Great as well as the empire he built afterwards. Also, Kublai Khan and Genghis Khan’s names should be in the searchable areas along with Alexander the Great. Also, in 1939, In March, the rest of Czechoslovakia was occupied by Nazi Germany. Slovakia was a puppet state under “German Protection” which was established during this same time period. There may be more suggestions that I may see going forward.

It's a very good app! I just wonder what the sources are, and where the creator got the years and dates from for some of the acient stuff. There's many ancient cities I haven't seen before, and I wonder where informarion on how certain ancient empires expanded came from. Either way, it's very good and thorough!

This is the perfect resource for any amateur (or actual) historian. I've been working on a passion project set in the 1800s and have searched for something akin to this app several times. There are two or three similar apps, but they pale in comparison to this one. Simply put, this offers a year by year history and atlas of the world (including nations/empires/tribes/etc. with rulers/leaders) and is definitely worth the moola.

Just wish that I would have had this app when I taught history. Just cannot stop using.
