About Factopus: Fun Micro Learning
Learn something new in the time a coffee takes to cool. Factopus is short lessons with quick quizzes, plus a feed of facts you swipe like stories. No lectures, no homework, and the teacher is an octopus. Pick a topic, any topic: history, psychology, finance, astronomy, communication, critical thinking. Also dog training. Yes, seriously. The catalog runs 250+ courses and 1,400+ lessons, each one short enough to finish between two subway stops. WHY IT STICKS Every lesson ends with a quiz, so what you read stays read. Right answers earn stars, streaks track your pace, and a daily goal keeps those five minutes from quietly becoming zero. FOR THE SPARE MINUTE Some minutes are too short even for a short lesson. That's what the facts feed is for: 700+ standalone facts to swipe through. Battles that changed everything, what your brain does with unfinished tasks, what the Wild West looked like minus the movie gloss. A few will get retold at dinner. 29 TOPICS, ONE OCTOPUS History, Psychology, Finance, Career, Communication, Critical Thinking, Decision Making, Physics, Astronomy, Geography, Art, Literature, Philosophy, Economics, Nutrition & Health, English, Parenting, Dog Training and more. START IN THREE TAPS 1. Choose your topics. 2. Set a daily goal. 3. Do the first lesson right there. Five minutes, done. Facto, the octopus in charge, has eight arms and strong opinions about wasted minutes. He keeps your streak honest. FACTOPUS PRO A Factopus Pro subscription opens every course, lesson and fact in the library. Prices are shown in the app in your local currency before you confirm. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
