Ratings and Reviews
A thing of beauty
This app is my personal space to decompress and be cheered by beautiful art and the history behind it.
I am still catching up with the navigation which is a bit confusing to me but doesn’t detract from the enjoyment.
The subscription is worth having and I am happy to support the work that brings beauty into my life.

What a pleasure to read your review, ATfaber, thank you! Marina
Nice idea, horrible execution
I do not believe English is the developer’s first language. Either that or they hired terrible writers. I noticed before I purchased it was hard to understand the message because it was so lamely written, but then I thought well it will probably get better. It didn’t. I got a refund. Plus sometimes it’s confusing as to what artwork they’re comparing something to. One story had a small image in the middle, no caption (??), so I thought it might be the comparison referenced to the original art but when I clicked on it for a larger image (and maybe a reference to what I am looking at) it opened to a blank screen. Main issue, though, is simply horribly explained.

Hi, LindyKing. It's sad and quite unexpected to read such a review.
That's why we have a free version with daily stories and quizzes to try it first.
Since, as you say, you already got your refund, it looks like there's nothing we can do to console your feelings. Hopefully, you will manage to find other sources online that would meet your expectations.

Great art history, distracting typos
This is a great app for learning about art history in an engaging way. The articles are not too long nor too short for daily lessons. The only reason I hesitate to pay for unlimited access is poor proofreading from time to time. For example, the Le Nain brothers article has the sentence “But why wouldn’t their complete the image?” in large italics. I might still buy the app. After all, art people aren’t English majors like me. Unfortunately, I can’t give the app 5 stars.

Hi, noxavem! Thank you for spotting out this unfortunate typo - I've corrected that immediately. Yeah, I hate when it happens too, yet, since there are over 1000 stories, sometimes, my eye just fails to spot it, my bad. You can always submit your ideas and suggestions via our internal contact form and we will react promtly. Happy Holidays! Marina
