Just started using

After the first 5 minutes you have learned how to associate the name of the state with its location.
I would recommend that the author also include a puzzle feature in a future revision

Good

I really like this ap. Definitely easy to use. I would just really recommend letting the user review a full map of the US before going into study mode.

A Good Start

I will say up front that the technique works very well for visual learners, like me. I agree with other reviews that say the map should be bigger. Also that the interaction should be improved so that you touch the state in question, or type in the answer. I am pleased with the results, however, and will try other apps by this company.
