more Just what I was looking for! It was easy to save my collection in the app, and I really like how much detail can be stored for each fossil. You can tell when someone passionate about fossils combines their interests and creates something truly useful — this app is a perfect example of that. Thanks to the developer for being so quick to respond to my feedback!
