The relaunch of Coe Operations is the direct result of a long retired lecturer and computing consultant being asked by their granddaughter for a World Flags test with maps on her phone. Now that it works as intended, it is offered free of charge to a wider audience.
World Flags and its various offshoots can be played in most browsers by clicking their icons below.
The offline Android app installers have temporarily been withdrawn until repackaged with the new look and smaller image files.
Whilst I do not guarantee responding to all emails, your feedback is most welcome, as is reporting any errors or broken hyperlinks.
Coe Operations Film Stars is an app about film stars where you can learn and be tested on your ability to identify them. There are now 250 stars with many more being added in the coming weeks and months.

Gathering material for a Film Stars app began in early September 2025 as a surprise for my granddaughter's thirteenth birthday. Not exactly educational in the academic sense of the word, it is attuned to her interests. She is an attendee of the Pauline Quirke Academy of Performing Arts and something of an aficionado when it comes to films and their cast.
Coe Operations World Flags is a test and training app to improve your knowledge of the world's flags, capital cities and ability to place countries on a map. It includes links to Kiddle (Kids Encyclopedia Facts) or Wikipedia for further information.

World Flags is the natural progression from a spreadsheet of European flags created years ago for my granddaughter and her primary school by her father, comprising hyperlinks to maps and Kiddle. When asked for an opinion, I copied it to a simple web page as shown above.
I don't know how much it spurred her interest in flags and geography, but she can now identify most in a flash and asked for a flags test with maps on her phone while I was coding something else for personal use.
The following US States and GB Counties apps are exactly the same as their World Flags counterpart apart from their respective data and resource files and can similarly be played in your browser by clicking their icons below.
