The app lays out your events in an easy-to-view timeline format. View your timeline as a vertical list of events, or as a traditional horizontal timeline with events placed along a series of years. Search events to find important people, places and happenings in your timeline. Make your timeline public to share with the Time Was user community if you'd like. Or keep it private for your own use. Add public timelines from other people to your library to view and learn what others are publishing about historical events. [:mav: 2.0.2]
