Pros and cons of Weird But True app for iPhone and iPad

Weird But True app good for

Love the idea behind the app, but itd be nice to have an option for a description behind some of these weird facts. It would not only present interesting facts, but users will also learn bits and pieces while using the app.

I have this book at my school and I was hoping to see the other books which cost 8.50 + so Im so happy

I was gonna buy more when it failed and Lost some of my iTunes

I love wired but true. The only problem I have is that I am having trouble downloading the new packs.

THIS APP IS F**CKIN AWESOME!! CAN YOU ADD MORE FACTS IF YOU WERE GOING TO DO THE NEXT UPDATE AND PLUS I BOUGHT ALL THE PACKS!! XD

PLEASE I BEG YOU make a way to turn off the f-cking sound fx. Thank you

Some bad moments

Not much of this app is actually free. They want you to pay for most content. It is not easy to navigate and kids cant do it without help. Plus, I just dont get it. There are tons of websites that do a far better job of delivering Weird But True facts.

Really good things in this app but its really short and the in app purchase are really expensive for what you get

Its ok but now you have to pay for more facts i hate this app!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have to pay for more facts?? Theres like a dozen free..... SWEET !!!

There is a couple free then there is a bunch of paid packs they want you to buy.

I spent 3 dollars on one of the packs for Weird But True and I regret it
