Really cool app. I wish the home screen widget would be improved though. I would like to change the color of the background and text, at least the transparency. I don't want a half opaque white. Would be nice if it was fully opaque like most other widgets or a more pleasant transparent black. Give us a full color selector. For the top bar as well. We're limited to ten colors, but you could put a color spectrum selector so we can choose whatever we want

This is a great app for all history buffs out there. I check it everyday to get my daily history lesson. The one thing i would suggest to make this app better is to add a feedback option. There are some things that I've noticed that either aren't entirely true, or the picture doesn't match the event/person. For instance, on March 2nd, for 1127, on the event of the assassination of Charles the Good, it shows a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald, which has nothing to do with it. Otherwise a great app 😁

Recently I became more and more intrigued with history and I even planned on making a calendar in which I would record historical events and with that have an overview over every day. I hoped this would help me connect historical dates in my mind...Turns out that this is a hell of work, so I gave up. Today, half a year later, I stumbled across this app that not even fulfills my expectations, but even exceeds it! (It's even available in many different languages...!) I highly recommend this app!!!
