More:

Organized along a timeline, users can browse across history starting from the big bang onwards up to the modern age, and follow the life span of people who shaped the world as we find it now. With data filed in categories such as cosmos, earth life, and humanity, users can go for the ‘big picture’ or filter the data according to their topic of interest. Tags and a reference file enable more specific searches.

The scale of the timeline adapts according to the area viewed, further orientation provides an additional bar that shows the currently screened sketch within a larger timeframe.

The app can be used independent of an internet connection; however the biggest asset of LittleBIG History is the natural feel and hassle free browsing. The interface convinces with its user friendly design, and a specifically developed data retrieval system allows rapid, smooth and friction free navigation.
