Clio - Your Guide to History for Android
One of the most unique apps around. Entertaining and educational. It's so fun to see how many places you walk by daily are full of histoty -- places you'd otherwise walk by without giving it a second thought. Makes you realize just how connected we are to the generations that preceded us.
Does not pick up historical markers I just passed. Search is terrible.
severely limited in historical locations
Unique app, perfectly suited for history and culture buffs!
The app won't find my location?
This app is really helpful, represent a lot of ideas.
Clio represents a lot of great ideas bundled into one app. Since I learned of it, I've visited a number of locations I never would have known about otherwise. I plan on visiting many more. The cool thing about Clio is, if you know about a location not yet featured on the app, you can add it! I recommend this to anyone who travels, or to anyone who wants to see their hometown with fresh eyes.
This app is awesome!! My husband and I were traveling through some small towns back country towns. We turned on our clio app and it turned out that we were only a few miles away from THE Emmitt Till grave!!!! How cool? I will be telling my friends about this app.
Loved using this in Chicago--best part was the ability to hand it to my son and have HIM tell me the history of buildings. He was so proud that I don't think he believed he was being tricked into learning.
I had no idea we had so much history in our little town.
This is a must for any history buff!
Great directory to find local museums.
Extremely valuable resource for travelers looking for historical monuments.
Going to Washington DC in two months and wanted to create an agenda to tour all the museums and monuments and this app is making it really fun. Thanks to who ever made this cool app!
Best app for field trips. This is a great tool for teachers and students alike.
This app is great for quickly accessing historical facts about different places. It also offers helpful links to other websites for additional information.
Lots of great local info in this app!
Great App!
Wow great app!
this is good
Thank you for this great historical locations app. It works great and I hope it grows! Well done!
This app brings the history around me alive!
Can't seem to do it whether on WiFi or 4G. Basically useless
I'm a history buff and this app is awesome! I can't wait to try it out of town. Thank you for creating it.
Love this!!
I live in wv and this app is so neat... I like being able to search local history and this makes it so easy... only issue is I wish the font were bigger on my phone
And it seems to concentrate on one ethnic groups history more than others.
I'm so happy I discovered this history app-so much great info and full of suggestions for more.
This is a great location based app and directory of all the historical monuments and museums in your area. Easy to use and packed with information so you can get an idea of the place before visiting. Love it!
So nice to see useful apps that cater to furthering the education of our youth. The location based functionality is top notch! I hope this app continues to get more and more contributors. Thanks developers and creators.....Keep it up!
Yipee! Taking a trip to San Francisco and now I can find info on all the history and museums. I like how I can get directions right within the app too! Good job Clio!
I would love using this app if I traveled half as much as I used to. At first it was a little annoying to use, but I soon got the hang of it. I used to desktop version before using the app. The app is more user friendly. I would probably get use out of it once a month.
This would be really interesting to use on a trip. Even my own location gave lots of information and landmarks.
By far, the best app for history buffs! It's very easy (and fun) to create and edit entries needed to preserve local points of interest.
I love this app for traveling and getting to know the history near home.
This is so cool I can learn about all the history and museums in SF!
I downloaded this for an upcoming vacation to NYC and it made me the most educated tourist in the city. Its fun for road trips as well as learning more about your own town.
Ok, I’ve lived in this town all my life and never knew about all the history! Pure awesomeness!
If you want to learn more about the history in your city check this app out!

This makes history come alive in so many ways. I've taught history at the high school and college level for years and have been looking for something like this for quite some time--so much good information and I love that there is the option for creating new locations and taking walking tours. Outstanding!
