Ready to learn? Here’s how the game of lifelong learning works:
- First, we start with a brief interview.
- You tell us how much time you want to spend learning a day: 5, 15, or 30 minutes
- We customize your learning experience and build you a beautiful CQ wheel. Every wheel is unique!
- You receive a daily, personalized learning workout via email and on your Curious dashboard.
- You complete your workout by reading Curios (our well-loved daily fun fact), solving puzzles, and watching lessons.
- Add lessons and topics to a focus area for longer term learning goals.
- Track your progress every time you learn. You’ll be so much more interesting!

Use online instead

If you’re going to use Curious, use it online because the app is utterly useless. It doesn’t load to the basic dashboard home screen, never mind any content.

Cautiously very optimistic about this.

So far I'm enjoying this app a lot,the biggest problem for me is that it's American. Nothing wrong with that as such but it does mean some of the content is USA specific, so in looking at legal definitions and so on it's not applicable to the UK.
Also doing crosswords or other word puzzles designed in USA English while having a UK English vocabulary and slang certainly makes for an extra challenge.
The site works by giving frequent feedback and reinforcement on questions answered, material being presented in bite size amounts. It's a good way of checking comprehension, and I'm beginning to quite like being told I'm "awesome!!" Though it was initially something of a culture shock.
I've found it a fun way of noodling about while either refreshing my memory on something or exploring something new. All content starts very basic, I'm interested to see how things develop.

Annoying

Had high expectations and was excited to play around in the app, concept seemed great. Went through the whole questionnaire process for it to say it was initially a 7-day trial to then pay for a subscription. Wish I had read some reviews beforehand. I understand people want to make money from these apps but I’m sick of all of these in-app purchases and subscriptions! Or at least make it clear at the start - I’m less likely to subscribe if it feels like a trick.
