Have you ever wanted to travel back in time? Well, jump on the Ancient Earth time machine app and travel back to a time before the age of dinosaurs, before the evolution of flowering plants, before the last great Ice Age, and well before the appearance of the first humans on Earth. Ancient Earth: Breakup of Pangea vividly illustrates the breakup of the supercontinent of Pangea during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic (200 Ma-0 Ma). Watch as continents drift apart, mountain ranges rise and fall, new ocean basins open, landmasses are flooded by rising sea level, and polar ice caps wax and wane.

Beat spherical representation of the tectonic plates of earth shifting over earth’s inception.
Worthless
If I could give this zero stars I would. This is the most worthless app I’ve ever used. Felt like a scam it was so bad. DO NOT GET THIS
Do not buy
Too basic and no update on UI, it lags and it’s clunky. Too expensive for what it is.
Gold standard for plate movement and topography
I am a geologist who studies the history of the earth. Date from hundreds of sources are incorporated into these maps. For years the maps were only shared within the geoscience community and were rather expensive. To have them available in the public domain for such a low price is great.
Don’t waste your money
If you want to see images from great distance of ice on earth you can probably get that for free on google. Not was to use and glitches back to Africa every time you tap.
Great, and just half the story
I just discovered Dr Scotese's maps and was delighted to get the app so I could look at the movements at the poles. The time line is great and being able to lock onto a particular location or continent is very informative. The app only goes to 201 MYA! If you want the formation of Pangea from the Cambrian, you must buy another App. The app would have been rated 5. As it only provides a half the story, the rating is half.
Expensive
There are other apps that are better and MUCH cheaper. Try Iapetus.
