Skill Review: Curiosity

Curiosity developed by award-winning Curiosity.com is a skill tailored to feed avid minds with interesting information. This voice skill delivers the most important facts and perspectives eliciting a sense of curiosity in its users to keep learning. It certainly appears to be designed for users who are constantly on the go, not physically but cognitively in a rush to perceive in-depth knowledge on a wide variety of topics under the sun.

The makers of Curiosity have cleverly catered to the group of users who are eager to sharpen the ‘know-what’ of the world around. The voice skill mainly aims to enrich the users learning and to sharpen their brain with power-packed facts.
With the intention to ignite the natural curiosity of every living brain, the skill offers mind-gripping facts possibly in every context reeling around the world of information. The collection of facts the skill delivers covers not only the best stories from history but also impressive views of the future. Be it science, psychology, productivity hacks, health news, or context to current events, users sure won’t run out of topics to learn about. With umpteen subjects and a horde of facts, the skill attracts the interest of its users in a flash. The descriptions the voice skill offers on the varied topics are definitely noteworthy. Another positive is that the user can opt for the ‘Neither’ option to skip the subjects that are not of interest. To add to that, whatever information is delivered via the skill is utterly comprehensible and to the point. Yet, that being said, there seem to be a few downsides like the lack of intuitiveness on the part of the skill to guide the user ahead when he runs out of response; the absence of a provision to opt for a topic to learn more, and last but not the least the voice skill does fall short of the extensive information in certain topics it claims to cover under the umbrella term of ‘free universe of knowledge’.

The VOGO Voice team scores this skill a 4.75 out of 5-stars based on our review criteria. Yet, you’ll have to try for yourself and see if it truly lives up to its promises to make you smarter and if it does challenge you to learn more vigorously than ever before.
