Amazing Ocean Mobile App

Amazing Ocean is a new mobile app that brings all of the content you love from the Ocean Portal straight to your mobile device. The app allows you to explore photos, videos and rich ocean-themed content from Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History and Smithsonian Ocean Portal from the comfort of your own mobile device. Browse through the app's collection of photos and facts to learn about ocean animals, habitats, and current research. Chat with other ocean-lovers by engaging in the live discussion threads, focusing on ocean issues, news, and fun facts.

Development of Amazing Ocean was a joint venture between the U.S. Department of State and the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History. The mobile app is the first in a series of planned educational projects between the Smithsonian and the Department of State. Learn more about the app on the Ocean Portal Blog.

The app can be downloaded for Android and iOS mobile devices, and can be viewed on the web.
