Where is that?
Where is that? is a geography quiz and learning app for iOS and Android, 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 offers four answer choices; Pin mode asks players to select a location from 10 or 30 options. A spaced repetition algorithm prioritizes areas for practice, and detailed statistics track progress for locations and categories. Daily Challenge provides a new challenge each day, while World Tour takes players through regions in stages. Single-player modes work offline using the custom mapping engine; multiplayer and Daily Challenge require an internet connection. Online games support live and asynchronous play, with all categories available. The app is free to download, includes a three-day trial with unlimited access, and then allows a limited number of free games each day. The app is available in English and German, and the maker says it currently shows no ads.
