September 2020: Apps Gone Live

The customer success team at STQRY launched many new apps in the month of September, from neighborhood walking tours to a virtual music festival, national forests and more. Read more about our recent additions to the STQRY app family!

Kronosaurus Korner

Kronosaurus Korner is Australia's premier marine fossil museum. It showcases over 1000 unique fossil specimens, including 100-115 million year old remains of extinct marine reptiles, fishes, ammonites and squids that once dominated Australia's ancient inland sea. The museum is dedicated to educating the public about all matters palaeontological.

Due to the collections’ size, only approximately 20% of its specimens are on display in the galleries. The team at Kronosaurus Korner turned to the STQRY team to create an app, allowing academics, students, and visitors to explore the other 80% through their mobile device to learn more about the prehistoric remains!
