New: two games! Find a country on the globe, or pick the right flag or capital. Say a country's name and the globe turns there: it works offline and the recording never leaves the phone. New language: Armenian. Globie speaks Persian and Armenian with its own voice, and is a girl or a boy to match the voice. When online, Globby checks in with our server using only a random device code, so Globie's welcome can change. Back works everywhere; the globe uses less battery.
Turn a colourful 3D globe, tap a country, and hear a lesson from Globie.
