Inside the app
More ways to explore rocks, minerals, fossils and landforms.
Move from specimens to landforms
Packs include rocks and minerals as well as fossils, volcanic features and landscapes. This gives you a way to connect small-scale textures with the processes that shape larger places.
Choose a visual study mode
Try photo questions, timed rounds, four- or six-photo selection, unscrambling or flashcards. Unscored cards give you room to study a specimen before returning to a quiz.
Read what to look for
Learn includes short reads for each pack. Use the notes to connect a visible feature with a geological process, then test whether you can recognise another example.
Make your next session deliberate
Daily quizzes, levels, recent results and an optional reminder support a regular routine. Language options and appearance settings help keep the app comfortable for repeated use.
Put practice to work
Leave each session knowing a little more.
Begin with the three rock groups, then describe one specimen using texture and visible structure. Look up the process that produces those features in your class notes. A later photo-choice round helps check whether you recognise the group in a different specimen.
Compare texture, crystal form and visible structure. Use the quiz to build recognition, then connect each example to how it forms and where it occurs.
