There is too much repetitive information and very ittle new information on each group of fossils. The long Kingdom descriptions are repeated with every group. More pictures would be good. Also the ads get in the way at the bottom and they make it impossible finish reading the new information.

Rather academic, could use more simple language. More pictures would help with identification.

Under " rate this app " 'Tell us more' does not have a positive answer to choose. For instance " Is this app in English I can choose NO or NOT SURE. But the answer is YES.

Pretty simple but easy to use and informative, concise, and easy-to-understand descriptions which, in my case, bolstered my theory to a "T". Haha. Thanks guys.

To many ads. I couldn't do anything without having an ad or two pop up.

Would prefer actual photos to compare my finds to. I know the groups but want to identify particular species within that group

A great tool to help better understand various fossils. A great companion for budding paleontologists.
