What are users saying about Ancient Inscriptions

by Z####:

This app hasn't been updated for a while, but it does provide basic browse functionality over several bodies if ancient Latin and Greek inscriptions, with English translations, monument descriptions etc. Greek displays correctly, earlier reviews notwithstanding. I miss more functions such as search, mapping, indexes. (Disclaimer, optimized for tablet, I am using on smartphone.)

by M####:

Greek is not readable without an ancient Greek font. Panning doesn't work very well. A terrific idea, and I hope it grows, but the interface needs a lot of work.
