Every country in the the world has its own story. Now the unique details of each are available in the
World 2011 universal app.
Created by
LazyApps, the app puts the
2011 CIA World Factbook onto the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad.
Information is available for 250 countries and regions. There is also information on world organizations and groups.
One of the nicest features is the ability to sort countries by rankings. For example, you can sort countries by population or unemployment rate, just to name two.
Rankings can be sorted by:
- Geography
- People
- Economy
- Communications
- Transportation
- Military
Articles can easily be shared via e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, Instapaper, or Tumblr.
The World 2011 app is thorough and offers plenty of information on each country. However, there are many other apps like it in the App Store.
These include: the
2011 World Factbook,
The World (Country Factbook),
The World HD (World Factbook), among others. These are also nice and are similarly priced.
The World 2011 app is one of the few which will run on both the iPhone and iPad. The others require two separate purchases.
The
World 2011 is available for $1.99 in the App Store.
