WorldABC — The CIA World FactBook App Reviews

Great app. Easy to use and not overly intrusive.

Great app for looking up information about all the different countries offline on an ios device. Very solid app. Clean ui, and the info comes directly from the CIA website so its reputable information.

The CIA World Factbook is an invaluable resource to anyone with an interest in world affairs. It provides easily accessible authoritative information that is not readily available elsewhere. It is an invaluable resource for novice and expert alike.

Everything you ever wanted to know.... Love this app, refer to it often. Devs are terrific also, very quick to respond and resolve. Thank you!

Very nice app but please add flag miniatures to countries in ranks. It makes scrolling through these lists much faster.

This is the only app review I have ever, and will ever write, but this BY FAR my favorite app. I consult it constantly when geopolitics are discussed in the news and have doubtlessly spent hours browsing through the lists and descriptions of various countries. This is a must purchase app for all geography nerds like myself.

I am in a Model United Nations class and this app is a great reference for just about anything!

An excellent resource.

For anyone involved with political issues, international affairs, and students especially this app is a must have.

Good interface and data is often updated.

This app cost me about $12 - because I tried many before finding this one. It is -simply- the best CIAWFB access app - in the AppStore. It should cost $5 - that is how much better is is. Dont wast your time with the others. One note- it is the full "Book" so it takes up half a gig - I like that - but not everyone will.

Thank you for a great app with us full information

Ive been using this resource in one incarnation or another (the resource, that is... I remain the same old incarnation) for almost two decades, and it rarely disappoints. The data are solid and comprehensive, and I really appreciate how the structure remains consistent whether youre researching Bolivia or Burkina Faso.

I really like this App for up to date and accurate information

A great source and really well organised!

This is a very good app, with a ton of information. Works very well and I use it frequently. Highly recommended.

There is a major problem with your app that needs to be corrected in the "RANKS" section. In order to make the information understandable, you should mention the unit of measure of the item being ranked. For example in the section "ELECTRICITY-Consumption" the figure for the Number 1 ranked country China shows: 4,831,000,000,000. What unit of measure is this? The column section heading should have shown that this is kWh. To give another example, the ranking of " GROSS NATIONAL SAVING" , the number 1 country is Brunei and shows the figure "56.1" There is no mention of the unit. You should have had a column heading showing the figure as "% of GDP" Another area for improvement I suggest you should make the unit of measure more practical for comparison purposes; some have numerous zeroes which are confusing. and could be refined to provide a more readable figure. In the example above it is hard to understand such a long figure as 4,831,000,000,000. It should have said instead 4.831 trillion kWh" Another example is,"NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION". You are showing number 1 country is USA 687,600,000,000. You do not describe the unit of measurement which is "cu m". For ease of understanding it would be more useful to mention 687.6 billion cu m rather than just give a figure with so many zeros. To make your app useful you need to incorporate these basic improvements.

I enjoy this app. It gives a good overview of any country. I especially like the maps.

A huge source of informations and also very useful it is.

Lots and lots of easily to access information . Worth the price
