Barefoot World Atlas App Reviews

Really not that detailed for an atlas, besides the awful job done at checking facts. The elk found in Canada is most definitely a moose, both by picture and icon. Either change the name or change the picture.

As others have pointed out, there is much mislabeling on the "atlas". Prince Edward Island, in Canada, is not in the middle of the Gulf of St Lawrence. Its the small island near the New Brunswick and Nova Scotia coast.

Lots of cool features but.....where is the Canadian Parliament building in Ottawa? Canadas national capital???

Have been looking at this app for awhile but was reluctant to put out the money (so many apps are such a rip off). I was excited to see if offered as a gift to give to my children. Now I am sorry I took the time and space to download. Corny, stereotyping and boring. Didnt bother to show my kids...they are too smart for this. Wont waste another second even reviewing it.

My previous review was a mistake . Persian gulf is there :) thanks

The idea of this app is a good one. The information wasnt accurate on some things. I was disappointed as well because I would have expected more facts. For example Hawaii doesnt even mention volcanoes??? Portugal only mentions soccer?? I wouldnt recommend this app unless they change it a lot. Arent elk and moose two different animals?

The app is so big, its slow and cumbersome and the information is ridiculously skimpy and stupid. Too bad, it could have been a great app.

Interesting and friendly but when it proclaimed the moose was an elk, it cast all its information in doubt.

Apple - pls FIX these celebration apps before promoting them !

Like I said in the title It took way to long to download I left it for about a half hour to download and wen I came back nothing and 1.5 GIGS not worth it and three when it finally downloaded I checked my country first and about half of it I knew for sure was fake and it doesnt give much information WATE OF TIME

The figures and characters are cute it helps my friend whos 4 she loves the app its awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! :):):)

the positive: it is a very well designed interactive globe. i imagine the 3D must also be fun for kids. (it is most definitely for kids) the negative: the information is spare (some say there are inaccuracies) and i think some landmarks are missed (definitely in the small countries as there is no space for it). technically-speaking, it still uses 1.2 GB of storage. i dont have storage issues, but since i also dont have kids, ill be deleting it. (though to their credit, the present version is an improvement on the previous one at 2 GB)

Contains obvious errors, such as Hockey being the national sport of Canada. Its not. Lacrosse is. Plus Britain and Ireland contain as many entries as the rest of the EU, minus France, Spain and Italy, combined. Where they had a "highland boy" and some statue erected in 1998 as entries in the UK, Germanys only entry was the Brandenburg Gate, which was accompanied by foreboding music.

Looking at all the reviews, it looks like Im the only one who couldnt figure out how to get to an actual article (could move to next/prev country, could zoom, and drag the globe, but touching an illustration or country did nothing but bring up the place name. Touching the place name did nothing) . I feel…inadequate, and so in frustration I give this app… one star.

It is listed as Canadas national sport, which is actually lacrosse. Incorrect information. Otherwise very good app.

I should have reconsidered again before I had clicked the purchase button.

Great for kids and adults. A lot of work went into this. Good music, very colourful, and easy to understand.

Not so much what i had in mind, very limited.

Surely, you could have a setting for changing to metric. Otherwise, nice app.
