Pros and cons of History for iOS app for iPhone and iPad

History for iOS app good for

Until the last v4.0 it was a great and informative app providing a decent overview of all mobile OS/iOS developed by Apple Inc. • Pros The positive aspects of this app were/are: well designed UI/UX | acceptable file size according to the purpose of this app | no IAPs | no ads | no annoying “Review Pop-ups” at all (last v4.0) | well structured and complete “Release Notes” in the “App Store” (at least from the UI/UX point of view) | the app seems to run completely offline without connecting to the internet at all (no entry under “Settings → Cellular”)
Nice app, thanks, but would like to see more detailed change log for each version, not just a "bug fixes"
Thank you for a wonderful application. very much like what it had been with the screen interface of past and current version of iOS

Some bad moments

This app has a very clean and useful interface. Great for developers and curious customers alike. Expecting greatness from future updates.
Nice concise reference for iOS and supported devices. I dont think Ill keep it in my iPhone, but I can always download it if needed.
Why was this app made? I could literally find the same information on Wikipedia or something. Also, the dev of this app LITERALLY gave himself his own review. Look at the review below mine, youll see.
I first saw this app on Reddit several months ago. I fell in love at first sight. Excellent app and really puts in perspective how far we have come. Keep up the great work!
I loved it! Especially learning how iOS works made me want the app more! So I got it! It really shows how iOS has changed over the years! If one thing could be improved, I would like to see screenshots from the older iOSs :)
This app was quite informative and helped me understand the significance of each iOS release, or shall I say iPhone OS :)
