The Dinosaur Island app is available for some Apple iOS and Android devices. Best follow our links below, as there are a couple of apps with similar names that might cause confusion.
With it, while you’re at one of the six sites around the Isle of Wight (details below), you can ‘bring a dinosaur to life’ have have it wandering/flying around, superimposed on the landscape, with the roar or skreech of the animal coming out of the speakers.
A photo can be taken and then you can email that photo to family or a friend, or send it out on Twitter, or Facebook.
