Seterra Geography (full) Reviews

I absolutely love SeterraGeographyfull! There’s nothing bad I have to say about it! I’ve known all the countries for a while but it’s been a goal of mine for years to learn where all the countries are on the map, and I haven’t quite been able to master them since I found out about SeterraGeographyfull. I was shocked and excited to find out they offer flags AND specific provinces and regions WITHIN countries! You can learn all the geography of the entire world with just this one app - which is just what I intend to do! Download SeterraGeographyfull and you’ll no longer be embarrassed when someone asks where a specific country is or any sort of geography question. I’ve already fulfilled many of my goals here, but I will definitely be a regular on SeterraGeographyfull from now on. Thank you, Seterra!! 😁

First off, SeterraGeographyfull is great and has helped me reach my goal of memorizing where every country is on the map as well as to identify every country’s flag.

The only thing that I feel could be improved is the variety of ways in which the knowledge of countries’ location/flags is assessed. Currently, a country’s name pops up and you have to locate it on the map or locate its flag out of a grid of many flags. However, due to the process of elimination, I feel that this method of learning the countries’ location and flag does not necessarily guarantee mastery. In order to truly know any given country’s location and flag, one must be able to name the country from memory when given either its location on a map or a flag. Thus, this issue could be resolved by adding a feature in which users may type out a country’s name from a highlighted country on a map or type out a country’s name after being shown its flag. I feel that this process of learning, focused on production from memory, requires a different mindset than the current recognition method employed by SeterraGeographyfull . While I do not believe that the current method of assessment should be removed, the addition of another way to test one’s knowledge of countries’ flags and locations (typing out the country’s name given its flag/location) would be very beneficial and greatly appreciated among the users of your app.

Thank you so much!

I have learned so much from SeterraGeographyfull. I truly appreciate you all so much. But I want to get the developers attention by giving this a 4 so I can raise only one complaint. I play the world quiz most of the time, and when I play on my iPhone being able to go from let’s say Argentina to the next choice being Latvia, I find that scrolling across the map is difficult to go diagonally. It seems to lock in the initial gesture of going east, or north, whereas only 10% of the time I am able to smoothly go north east without having it lock in to only be able to go east or north, if that makes sense. basically I play this so often id like to be able to improve on my speed but I have a hard time knowing if my time is improving, or if I’m faster or slower depending on the mechanics of scrolling. Thank you again, I hope this gets read. Have a great one!

Even though I am am adult and went through years of schooling, I still struggle a lot with basic geography. I have a hard time remembering where states and countries are located in relation to one another which makes it hard to understand current events and history. I also remember less well where people are from since I don’t contextualize it well.

SeterraGeographyfull has already greatly improved my knowledge of US geography and I am looking forward to seeing improvements in my knowledge of the rest of the world as well. For the first time I feel that learning this information is possible for me.

It’s not terrible. I’ve had fun playing SeterraGeographyfull and I’ve learned a lot. I admit, before I downloaded I didn’t know anything about where the states were or where half the countries of Europe were located on a map (or that they existed!) I’m definitely fond of the fact you included cities of Massachusetts, as I’m from there and enjoyed remembering each town.

However, in regards to that, I would have like to be able to customize a quiz for MA with more cities than offered. That goes for all maps. It wouldn’t be impossible to make a feature where we add our own locations because you have all the political borders. It would be difficult to screw up.

Also, it would be nice to be able to alter how sensitive the screen is. I’m tired of miss clicking things and then having to restart due to no fault of my own knowledge. You have to go a ton of zooming and swiping in SeterraGeographyfull so it would just make it a lot more user friendly.

I had been using the web version of Seterra for a while and I loved it! With it, I was able to complete my goal of learning the geography of Europe. When I learned they had an app, I downloaded it without hesitation. But SeterraGeographyfull is not a good reflection of the full power of the Seterra website. All it is is process of elimination tapping quizzes, whereas on the website you can do a much wider variety of quizzes such as: typing, borderless, “hard” versions, etc. This is what I loved about Seterra, but SeterraGeographyfull offers none of it. Had I known that, I would not have purchased it. I suppose it’s my fault for not reading the full description, but why would I assume SeterraGeographyfull would lack these features that the website offers FOR FREE. I don’t mind paying a few dollars for SeterraGeographyfull if it had more of these features, but again, you can do more on the website for free. Very disappointed. I hope they update SeterraGeographyfull to offer these features.

This honestly should be a five star review seeing as SeterraGeographyfull works well, is free, has done wonders for my knowledge of world geography, etc. etc. However, there’s a feature that could be added without (I think) too much difficulty that would make SeterraGeographyfull an even better educational tool. If when you clicked on a country a link to the wikipedia page for that country popped up under the country name, it would be that much easier to learn a little bit oh context about the country without leaving SeterraGeographyfull , which would not only make it easier to remember the country but would also deepen your knowledge just a little. It would be amazing if this could be implemented.

I love SeterraGeographyfull! It has everything you could ask for in a free, non-advertised game. Well, except for one thing.

Can you please make it so that custom quizzes are more customizable? Like drawing your own borders, placing your own cities, and naming them yourself? SeterraGeographyfull has a lot of quizzes, but it would be nice if I could make some of the ones that are missing. Like maybe I could make a quiz about Asia during WW2?

Other than that, this game is fantastic. I use it everyday. Thanks to SeterraGeographyfull, my knowledge of geography has skyrocketed.

Yes, I know it's not even mid-January.

Pros:
• Very easy to use. I finally learned all the countries of Africa, the Balkans, the Lesser Antilles (sort of), and other difficult spots.
• Tons of stuff to learn. I never even knew there was a Norwegian Sea.
• Love the "Learn" and "Test" features.

Cons:
• The Caribbean states and territories are hidden waaaaaay down at the bottom of the North America list, under things like "Minor Saskatchewan Villages" and "Puddles of Detroit." Please make this easier to find.
• I still haven't found out where to learn the South Pacific island nations. Hmm, Australasia? Nope. Asia? Nope. The only place I've seen to learn them is on the "153 UN States" which is too late 'cause I'm already testing myself on the rest of the world. Is that Nauru or Tonga? Oops, you got it wrong!
• SeterraGeographyfull seems hypersensitive to tapping, and likes to ding me when I'm zooming in on smaller states. This evening it actually dinged me for Iran when I wasn't even touching the screen! I've actually quit tests to restart when it thinks I've tapped on Benin when I was actually tapping Guatemala.

I really like the design of SeterraGeographyfull and also the approach. Recently, I introduced it to my daughter who is in the first grade. She seems very interested and kept using SeterraGeographyfull . Nice thing is she doesn’t realize the fact of redundancy and she keeps getting better at learning the states and capitals of USA. She also started learning about North and Central America countries. As a matter of fact I am also enjoying it while watching her doing it. Very cool app and I sincerely appreciate all the efforts behind SeterraGeographyfull . Thank you!

The reason why I gave it 4 stars? Misclicking. and it’s not my fault. It’s especially bad on the worldwide map, where I’m zooming in and out like crazy. It almost always happens when I pinch to zoom out. I would appreciate either:
1. An optional setting where you have to double tap a country/location to select it, on the first tap the country gets highlighted.
2.. An optional zoom button which you can press on the screen which zooms the map in and out.
This misclicking issue has messed up my worldwide map score DOZENS of times, especially in Africa where the countries are so tightly packed on the western coast

Of all the ways to waste time on your phone, this is one of the few that’s worthwhile. It’s not just geography. There’s also some history. The tests vary in difficulty so you can pick your level of challenge. You can also review afterward so you don’t just pass or fail but learn. I’ve used their website for a while and just found SeterraGeographyfull .

I like your website. I would like to restart a game with few touches as possible with minimal load time because I spend hours playing. To restart a game, I currently have to deal with two flows and it takes me away from my dopamine rush. The scoreboard is not very useful to me since I’m the only person playing. I’d like to see a single player mode, that shows how accurate I’ve been recently eg:- a chart that shows my accuracy along with the time taken in the last 10 games for a map or flag. Thank you for helping me improve my geography knowledge.

I am someone who people say is “competitive.” I found SeterraGeographyfull when I was taunting my dad with who can get a higher score when naming the 50 states. After playing for a while it turned into who can get 100% fastest, and now I use this all the time to distract myself in my free time. I love SeterraGeographyfull and the layout. Thank you.

Even though the description says, “this is the full version of Seterra…”, SeterraGeographyfull doesn’t contain all the quizzes on the website - including, for example, the Counties of Kenya quiz. This might also be quite difficult to implement, but I also believe there should be other modes for the quizzes, like a typing mode, pin without borders mode, etc., which are already on the website.

I was introduced to Seterra through the website, and I immediately loved it. I learned all the countries in Africa in under a day, and I am now learning Europe. Then I decided to get SeterraGeographyfull . Mostly, I love it. It’s well put together and interactive. However, the fact that the other gamemodes that are available on the website aren’t available on SeterraGeographyfull bothers me. I’ve found typing to be the best way for me to learn, pinning is just too easy. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add at least the typing game mode, preferably all of them. Other than that, it’s a great app!

I found this very helpful. I know in most cases in Social Studies most people have to memorize all of the countries in each of the continents. My teacher introduced SeterraGeographyfull to my classmates and I when we started the memorization game and a lot of us found it very addictive and fun. I learned very quickly the countries, flags, continents, etc. 5 out of 5 would recommend!

if you need to learn geography it’s a good app, but it really needs a better interface while in SeterraGeographyfull . It’s hard to click on certain countries and you can’t really zoom out to see the whole map. Another thing is that on most quizzes I don’t see the flag. There’s not much other issues it just really annoys me that I can’t zoom out and have to drag my finger across the screen just to see everything.

I am really into Geography, and have been searching for an app like this one for a while. It has a very simple and clean design, and has a lot of content to explore. Some languages even have audio for different landmarks! This feature allowed me to learn the pronunciation of city and country names in German. This is a must if you just want one Geography app that you can rely on.

I used Seterra back when I was in school and now I use it to keep my skills sharp. This is a reliable and easy to use app. My favorite part is that there are so many different things to study on here and they’re all available offline so I can use it on road trips or on the subway. Great way to pass the time productively.

My friend showed me this site before a quiz on South and Central american countries and capitals for our polisci class. I had been putting off studying before then, but now it’s really easy and I’ve moved on to other continents. I feel like the little kid at the end of Jimmy Kimmel when he’s asking people to name countries. Huge flex

For those wanting to learn or expand on their geographical knowledge... I’m addicted. The interactive maps are free to play/practice on SETERRA’s website, but SeterraGeographyfull just brings it all together nicely, making it more convenient and accessible to navigate. I highly recommend SeterraGeographyfull for anyone with an iPad.
