I enjoy reading it every morning. I'm glad to see that you are adding new entries. I just wish you add more sports. It's a great app.

It's a great app and a lot of fun, highlighting world history and the people and events that shape it. I would like to see more women highlighted in the birth and death sections. There are a lot of soccer players mentioned, but no women athletes. Out of most of the dozens of births/deaths, there are less than 3-5 women of history highlighted. Fix this and I'll revise to 5 stars.

This is an enjoyable trivia fluff app. I even pinned it to my home screen.
