Knowledge is power, so the saying goes. Three-quarters of smartphone users spend more than three hours per day on their devices. Roughly one-quarter of these spend more than seven hours per day on their devices. Why not use some of your smartphone time to learn something and become more powerful?
Scifact contains 912 facts and trivia delivered straight to your device on average every eight hours after reading the most recently delivered fact. That means there are about ten months of fun facts if you read them when they become available. Since repetition is the key to learning, facts are allowed to repeat, but only after 200 new facts have been delivered (about two months worth).
Topics include: natural and life sciences, human anatomy and reproduction, society and engineering, earth and climate, astronomy, the origin of words, psychology, and others.
