Prof Brian Cox's Universe App Reviews

Amazing content. However I think the interface could use some improvements. When you scroll up to read the text of each section, the blue background makes it look somewhat unprofessional. Also, it takes way to long for the video and text to load, maybe just put the videos onto the iPad for a better viewing experience, instead of streaming it. More video content and interactivity is also going to make this app even better! I hope to see more updates, good job!

Im not usually into the "educational" apps, but this tour of the universe is visually stunning, easy to use, and employs hours of interesting educational entertainment.

Amazing app!! Amazing graphics!! Loads of info.... 100 trillion stars from me!!

Great app that covers everything from the vastness of space, to the tiniest of quarks. With Plenty to read ,watch and marvel at, Well worth the money.

This app is amazing, but the lack of AirPlay support makes it loose its wonder when putting it on a 189" screen in my lecture hall. Please update! 4:3 presentation on such a large screen or any really detracts from it. My fellow teacher feels the same when he uses it on his smart board.

This is the most beautiful and extraordinary app I have. The breathtaking 3D rendering is just state of the art. One can rotate around galaxies and as one moves the star field behind the galaxy changes perspective..this is not some slide show...this is immersive and utterly palpable. Dr. Cox brings joy and a depth of knowledge to astronomy and whoever did the cinematography is a true artist. It fills one with awe for our own world and others also. There is a huge amount of material in this app and the simplicity of navigating allows one to choose just how to approach it and one can return to any place with a few swipes. It is accurate, in depth, glorious and frankly, I feel privileged to be alive today to have such a treasure in my hands! Congratulations to all concerned. I expect it requires the critical technical brilliance of the iPad to run the realtime computations to make this app dance as it does...it is perfect in all respects and the authors, the software engineers who wrote the app scripts..all deserve honours for it. Dr. Cox deserves most especially my thanks for I have watched much of this on television and his true enthusiasm for this subject is joyous.

Have you ever listened to someone who easily drew your full attention? Such is the compelling presentation found in the wonders of the universe.

This app is great for people who absolutely love space like me!!

Beautiful images, really helps you to get an understanding of the universe!

Thanks Starbucks. :)

This app shows places things and more that are kinda hard to see other places. As I said Wow. Amazing

Ive been looking for a app like this for ages. Thank god Starbucks is awesome. Great pictures and every else in the app is awesome

Thanks Starbucks!! This app is unbelievable! :)

I am curious if the makers of this app will remove all included videos. This will constitute no loss to the quality and experience of the app. No? Unfortunately, this is my position. Without subtitles, I am unable to enjoy the videos, and thus they may as well not exist for me. I wonder, then, if the makers are satisfied that the design of their app constitutes a very different experience for people who require subtitles when there is audio involved. I hope they are not because having subtitles added to this would be immensely good, and I know I will dive headfirst into the app. For now, though... Its an app that includes everything in the Universe except subtitles.

Beautiful images, fascinating content. Well-polished app, but I dont know how much it normally costs (thank you Starbucks), and the amount you might pay is a subjective matter

A must have for anyone who loves to explore the world! I wish I had this when I was a child! I had to be satisfied with atlases!

This is a brilliant app, so much to learn! And even if you just want to look around at spectacular photos this is an app youll love!

This is hands down the most interesting app I have ever used. I dont say this often, but thank you starbucks!

Beautiful images and wonderful music. The most visually appealing app I have seen so far. And very educational. Very well done.

Simply brilliant app. Shines on the iPad. A wealth of beautiful colourful knowledge stunningly presented. Best $5.99 I have spent in ages. The kids love it too.
