Where is that?
What Where is that? is
Where is that? is a geography quiz and learning app for Android and iOS, developed by Jaysquared, the app studio of indie developer Jonathan Hillebrand. It covers more than 80 categories, including countries, capitals, states, cities, landmarks and nature. Quiz mode presents four answer choices. In Pin mode, players choose a location from 10 or 30 options. A spaced repetition system identifies areas that need more practice and gives them priority, while detailed statistics show progress for individual locations and categories.
For regular practice, Daily Challenge provides a new challenge each day, and World Tour moves through regions in stages. Online multiplayer supports live games and asynchronous rounds, and every category is available in those games. The app’s custom mapping engine supports offline single-player play; multiplayer and Daily Challenge need an internet connection. It is free to download and offers unlimited access during a three-day trial. After the trial, a limited number of games remain free each day. Monthly and annual subscriptions unlock continent- and country-specific categories. The app is available in English and German, and the maker says it currently shows no ads. Its first version was released in early 2012.
