Customer Reviews

Very informative App (5 stars)
The application provides tons of info. Gave me great insight while traveling abroad. Highly recommend it for those folks that like to stay informed. For, who knows the GDP for their own country? Or the crime rate? Or what natural resources their country imports and exports?

However, I suggest the developers build this application for the iPad, if they want to reach an older population and wonder into the corporate environment. Exec

Awesome! (5 stars)
I love it. Everything found on the CIA.gov website but resident on my phone!

Well done. (5 stars)
Easy to use, good and interesting information, very good maps. Excellent resource.
