N/A
Was looking for a little history fact of the day to pop up on my phone each morning. No option to set it up. No option to forward to a friend, either. Though one fact is highlighted, there are way too many offered. Do like the images. All-in-all, enh.

This is an excellent application. It has worked without any glitches, links to related topics, and is perfect for the classroom.
Awesome!
A few days ago, kindof on a whim, I went looking for "This Day in History" apps. I came across a handful— and a few from developers whose other apps I have purchased in the past. But the newspaper graphical-interface of this app was exactly what I pictured in my head, so I made the purchase. Im super glad that I chose this one. Its 100% functional— has the same info as the other apps, integrates with Wikipedia— but is SO much better looking. Might I suggest the ability to save a dates full page as a PDF? For birthdays? Itd make an excellent addition to a birthday card.
