Grabs your details then asks for subscription. Another terrible approach to grab from people. Deleted.

For someone interested in ancient history, I think, this app and website is the answer to that quest.

Was looking forward to exploring the content of this app but creating an account was "greyed out" so I opted to sign in via Facebook was redirected to WhatsApp for a code then I had to sign in to Facebook then I had to change my Facebook password and then instructed to install the Facebook app which I already have! I have chosen to uninstall as I have just wasted half an hour for nothing! I've also discovered that there is a hidden cost! Really??!!! I'm sure this app will go down in "history"!

It's pleasingly interesting so far I'm just skimming the Elizabethan era but early days are so much more to digest so the score is based on the little I've read I will update in due course

It's sneaky not mentioning you have to pay a subscription to access any content. I registered expecting something other than paywalls. PSA: in Oct 2025 it's £71.99 for 6mo slashed through to now "£4.99 for 6mo" which I'm pessimisticly taking to mean £29.94 for 6mo then a rolling £34.99/year afterwards. Pay monthly is £5.99. If you go via their own website, not the app, it's £30/year for the same subscription.

Not free. Free to download, then you need to set up a monthly subscription, which increases after a few months. I'm torn: I love history and I totally understand how and why quality content doesn't write itself by magic, but I'm slightly disappointed to not be able to access anything at all. Maybe a token download fee for limited access, but not read 'premium' / more juicy subscriber stuff? EDIT: can't reply-to-reply. App listed 'Free' in "top 10 free History apps which is confusing for users.

So far one of the best, valuable and pragmatic historical knowledge for me. Highly recommend for extraordinary history lovers.

I noticed a difference today the way QR scanning codes will allow you open the link inside your app as oppose to the browser. Makes it much easier to book mark them. Love thus fix!

The app went straight to payment options, so I went to the uninstall button.
