45 Positive User Reviews for Universe in a Nutshell

A true gift

You mean I can spend years reading through bits of information about things from Planck length to observable universe. The scale of creation in my pocket to entertain myself and children is absolutely amazing. Thank you for teaching me lovely facts that make me appreciate our place in everything through some of the most satisfying animation styles out there!!! Also my kiddos have been loving the channel as well. Thank you kurzgesagt for purging my house of Mickey Mouse clubhouse.

I love it

From the biggest to the smallest, we see how little atoms are compared to us, and the enormous scale of the observable universe. This is fascinating and interesting, and I’ll always come back to it.

Very Nice!

I like this because not only is it educational, the calming music is on the spot! We are big and small and in the middle of all of this too. I would recommend this app and thousands of others will too, so if you want to learn and be relaxed at the same time, I would recommend this app.

Good, but

It’s a fun app to learn with and mess around with, but it needs something else to do. One way you could make it funner is by showing real life examples of the thing and what you can do with it.

It’s great but update!

I love this app so much! I use it all the time, and I love science and reading so this app is perfect for me. But there is one downside to the app. They haven’t updated it in 3 years. And they make so much videos about stuff and not put it in their app so if they would update the app that would be awesome!

This Game’s Good, but we need more objects

Can you add dragonfly, damselfly, all continents and states and countries, more cosmic objects, and Uranus? I want to see all life in this app. Can you add all life on Earth?

Sososoososososoo funnnnnnn

Ok so awesome game,app or anything but please update!

Incredible, but needs more

This is a fantastic app, but I feel like it needs something else to it! You could put a video under every explanation, or sideways not just in and out. Still-amazing, totally worth $3

Update Please🙏🙏

I’ve been using this app as a space nerd and I love it! I’d definitely rate this app 5 stars. But … I’d love to see an update. The app should add a big update with more space stuff and maybe some more plants!

This really needs an update!

The app hasn’t been updated in three years. It says Voyager I is 21.2 billion km away, but is now 25.0 billion km. Who knows how many other interesting discoveries have been made that could be added?

For Kurzgesagt and Wait but why.

I love the pictures and how It’s like a infinite zoom video best app ever!

Umm…. 🤔

You Guys didn’t size 24 things correctly. Please correct those, Kurzgesaht & “Wait but why?”.

Other universe, comparison apps, and this is the best one

I’d love that this has no ads now. Why would you add a stick figure? I don’t know why you are working with a complete but this is the best I could have on my iPad. Thank you for making this. I love this YouTuber.

plz at the 7th planet!!!

It’s a good app, but you need to add the 7th planet Uranus (plz dont laugh!!!) I say it like yer-uh-nis so people don’t laugh. (btw Happy New Year) Can you also change the description for the colossal squid. There is some language there. Plz remove human $₽3ŘM cell and human egg plz it’s inappropriate. Otherwise, I recommend this app for people.

More stuff

This app has been out for a while, being a paid app I really feel like you guys could just keep adding more and more stuff for scale, maybe the option to compare 2 or 3 things at once (human next to a star etc) I love it but adding more stuff is the way to go

Amazing

Good game add it like subscribe

Best app ever

My only main problem was that for 1-2 weeks the app was apparently banned in the US And a few suggestions/questions The largest bacteria is outdated Why isn’t Uranus included? On Saturn it describes its rings as delicious? Is that a mistake? Maybe you could include Eris? Or haumea? (Dwarf planets)

Kurzgesagt Universe

Universe in a Nutshell is packed with astounding detail about objects at every scale in our universe. Great for visualizing the scale of everything.

If you love stuff from big to small get it

I have always been interested in atoms and in space And I always loved watching in a nutshell videos So I decided to get this app It’s amazing if you love stuff from big to small Amazing experience 10 out of 10

Amazing! But where’s Uranus?

My son and I absolutely love this app! He looks at for hours. However, my son is a connoisseur of the solar system and almost immediately noticed that Uranus was missing! If you could please add this, it would be amazing!

Really cool and I want to keep using it

I like how half of the thing in the app moves and the stars and galaxy’s are cool and it is joyful. But the language is hard and is above my age plus it is difficult to tell what it is for pistol star. I like it so much and I even got to the smallest and largest. And I don’t have more things in the app but I think it’s enough or maybe more entertaining if there were more things in the app. Thank you for making this app thanks 😊 I loved it and the animations were cool.

Wonderful app by a wonderful channel!

Kurzgesagt is one of my favorite YouTube channels! So this app sure is a wonderful way to learn about space

Legitimately Unbelievable

This app is truly unbelievable and awe-inspiring! I’ve been a Kurzgesagt fan for years, and this app truly teases everything to the next level. The sheer attention to detail in every little area, the artwork, the music, everything about this app is beyond amazing. It is essentially incomprehensible to experience the true size of our universe, but I think this app does a great job of trying to scale it for our minds to understand. Wonderful app, would recommend to anyone who loves science, explor

MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE APP!

I have learned so much from your app, and I love your youtube channel!

Still one of my favorite apps

2 years on, I still find myself back in this App every coupe of months. I find few things reset your perspective like the size of the observable universe and the vast nothingness we’re made of.

Best app ever

I’d recommend a few things: Higgs boson, neutrino, photon, Uranus, giganotosaurus, And finally, the largest bacteria is outdated Largest galaxy is outdated

My son is obsessed

Me and my son love this app! My only complaint is that I was wish it would read things aloud.

Great but

you forgot to add Uranus

Would be great except…

It lacks any real accessibility options, and the bare minimum would be including the ability for Siri to read the content presented, but having accessibility options custom made for this app is more along the level of care and thought I expected from this creator.

Incredible, but it needs some more stuff

I love your channel, I watch it almost every day to fill my mind with more knowledge. And when I found out you guys had an app, I got it immediately! I went through the app and noticed that all of the planets were there except for Uranus. Also for some reason SIRIUS looks smaller than the sun. Also I would love for the app to have the asteroid belt. Along with Eris because you added the moon of eris but not the dwarf planet that it orbits. Other than those things I think this app is absolutely p

My favorite App

I never get tired of understanding my insignificance

Love it

Being a huge fan of kurgesgart (sorry if I messed it up terribly) I downloaded this app, all of it is amazing and if you love this I highly recommend that you check out there YouTube Chanel kurgestagt in a nutshell.

So big

I like this app because I found out a lot of things I did not know about like a dna from one human is larger than Stevenson 2-18

Awesome, but needs fixes

I love this app but some things are kind of inaccurate. Alpha Centauri B and Sirius look the same size but Sirius is supposedly 2 times bigger. Thanks Kurtzesagt!

Amazing Kurgesagt

I would have to say that this is an amazing app that is filled with amazing art and amazing details on them and I love the Kurgesagt YouTube channel and the entire app is just amazing and I hope that Kurgesagt get more videos so the world can see how amazing there videos and hope more videos come

Nice I have a idea

This is really cool I have a idea a ability where you select two things to clolide for big space for animals how they would fight and who would win and microscopic one like virophaghes vs bactirea

Would be 5 stars if…

Search great information, it would be five star if the descriptions were read by the voice in the youtube videos.

grate game

this gam is kool fer april fols du an opdate tat maks the largest ting called ur mum

Amazing

I just wanna say I love you and thank you for this amazing app amazing channel the efforts you make

Brilliant!!!

I’m so blown away! I’m so happy this app exists! Now I can really see the object for what they are! This app is brilliant!! Brilliant!!!

Philosophy wins my money

Two organizations that believe in spending their money on content and asking only that you pay for some of these extra special items if you want to support them, and never more than the original asking price. I’m behind that 100%.

Super informative

My boys love it and I can’t help, but tell all my friends about it.

Obviously five star! But…

I think it would be nice to have an automatic narrator that started when the app was booted up and read everything starting at the bottom or the top and has the option to switch in between both with the additional option to turn it off.

Best scaling app ever

ummmmmm i don’t know what to say but can you make it so you can change it to feet I live in America so I don’t understand meters but it still great

Amazing! Now plz make history of time app like this!

Very well done app. This really is a fun way to get a grasp on the scale of the physical universe. Now I’d love to see a similar app presenting the scale of the history of time.
