The QI iPhone App is out now, based on the QI books based on the series. The idea is that the QI iPhone App combines all the QI books that have been released so far, broken up into 56 new mini-books so they’re easily digestible on the go. Each mini-book on the QI iPhone app is in chunks that should take about 10 to 15 minutes to read.  You can send your own facts to QI with added photos from within the app, and rate other people’s facts using an Interesting-o-meter, which runs from Not Really Interesting to Quite Interesting.

Out now | £4.99 | Apple
