Ratings and reviews

An utterly fascinating reference tool. I love having this information at the fingertips. I can't quite give it a perfect rating. Some of the information is incomplete. I look forward to its eventually being filled in. Also, the First Presidency occasionally deviated from its usual two counselors through history, and I would appreciate a little more insight/explanation of why those deviations and adjustments happened. Overall, this is an invaluable app.

This app is a really good & easy to use Church history tool. The only problem with the app is that since apostles don't change all that often, whenever I get a notification that the app has been updated, I'm afraid that it means that another beloved Church leader has passed away. Yikes!

I very much appreciate this app. However, two things disturb me somewhat. The sketches needs to be more standardized, at least at the beginning. Secondly there is not enough information about some individuals, specifically about our current prophet. There is so much more that could be written in comparison.
