"actually i like the way it explains everything keep going"
"As an anthropology major, I recommend this app for studying or learning basic information. The information provided is accurate and listed in order of importance. It is a wonderful app for those interested in basic knowledge or those looking to explore the field. My only con would be it's not free, there is a fee for the premium, which opens up the whole app. It's a fair price, but for kids who are interested in learning and don't have the means to pay, wouldn't be able to explore the app."
