Ratings and reviews

i like how repetitive it is as the app I was using before was more one and done. however, it needs dark mode badly and right now I have no idea if I ran out of swipes for the day or if i have to pay to ever use it again

this app blew my mind. it is exactly what I was looking for . not only this particular art one but also the geography one. thanks a million

Well designed, very stable app. A chance to replace doom scrolling with something better for the soul
