Description

Uncover the ancient plant and animal fossils hidden beneath your feet.

Fossil Explorer is a field guide to the common fossils of Britain and will help you identify fossils based on where you find them. The app uses a geological map to plot the rocks present at your chosen location and provides a list of fossils known to occur in rocks of the same age.

Whether you want to discover ammonites along Dorset’s Jurassic coast, marine reptiles in Whitby or trilobites in Wales, this app can tell you more about your fossil finds.

Fossil facts and illustrations will help beginner fossil hunters get started, while specimen details will help more experienced fossil collectors delve deeper.

Features:
• interactive map of Britain and geological map overlay
• illustrations and data for more than 1,200 fossil specimens in the Natural History Museum collection
• introductory information about nearly 90 fossil groups and more than 1,150 species
• fossil content researched and checked by Natural History Museum palaeontologists
• additional information about local geology provided by the British Geological Survey

The app currently covers England, Scotland and Wales, but not Northern Ireland.

This is an early version of the app and we would appreciate your feedback. Please take a minute to complete a short survey, accessible via the app (select More.)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

1 ★Downloaded updated twice . connected via home wifi selected area on map and did nothing. Used postcode nothing happened
5 ★I love fossils
5 ★Love it !
1 ★I'm not in Britain. Why is there nothing like this in America? I have things I'd like help to identify. Losing fossil app hope.
2 ★I live in Canada and it doesn't seem to have any fossil data for anywhere else but the UK. I would expect to show off a bunch of data over Drumheller, but still get the same response of having no data. Cool app, but if only you had the option to find fossils outside of the UK.
1 ★Installed but couldn't get app to work. Kept saying I wasn't connected to internet when I was. Frustrating.
5 ★Brilliant!
