Very interesting app. Lots to learn. I'd recommend adding some sort of comparison feature where you can select 2 or more items and have them specifically compared to one another. For example, It would be cool to see mt. everest on the same plane with central park... Or an oxygen molecule next to the coronavirus... Ya know, for no particular reason...

This kind of website/app has always been enjoyable for me but Kurzgesagt's style adds a nice new layer to the experience. The music was also very unexpected and very pleasant, helping to create this whimsical mood as you swipe through these immensely large/small distances. Good sense of humor here too. My major gripe is that I am unable to reorient my screen while using this app, which is pretty dumb. This is really minor though and doesn't detract from how worthwhile this whole thing is.

Exactly what it says on the tin- amazing visuals bu Kurzesagt (I probably butchered the spelling, sorry.) along with educational content. One star has been deducted due to a bug that makes you unable to zoom out if you reach plank length, and unable to zoom in if you reach the observable universe. Other than that, it is a bit overpriced but I can look over that since it is going to a group I support.

Beautiful app! I love your channel and couldn't wait to download it. I'm a teacher and love to use your content in my classroom. To justify the $2.99 for multiple devices in my classroom I would love to see more interactivity in the future, maybe links to your videos in some of the descriptions, playful animations that react to touch, a list of further readings with sources and if you added a speak aloud option to be turned on and off that would be great for differentiation.

I love the app. It has all of the Kurzgezagt awesomeness and it's available for me to play with. One thing I find annoying, though, is when I swipe and hold to continue zooming in or out, then let go, the info screen for {whatever ends up under my finger} opens up. Aside from that, no complaints.
