"National Debt" provides insight into the national debts of more than 180 countries! It shows the development of the national debt in real-time, and provides an overview of the year-to-year historical development of the debt. The app has the option to display the debt as percentage of the gross national product, and show this result on a comprehensive World Debt Map!

To put the large numbers of the national debt into perspective, the app shows what you would have been able to buy with the national debt (e.g. find out how many Iraq Wars is equivalent to the national debt). You can adapt and specify your own items in this list.

The app also shows how long it would take to pay off the debt when paying a given amount per day, and shows the debt as percentage of the gross national product.

The data is based on official numbers provided by the governments and are updated on a regular basis.

Disclaimer: the real-time numbers in the app are estimates. No rights may be derived from the data provided in the app.

Pros and cons of National Debt - USA & World app for iPhone and iPad

National Debt - USA & World app good for

This application is simply genial and easy to use. Are we really rich ? Meditation is needed !
Very good Too bad we cannot compare 2 or 3 countries on the same page with graphs to compare evolutions . And have also amount and % of gdp on same page
Interesting app to check and compare your country to others and verify how serious is your government!
Not sure if the basic figures and the calculation process are correct, but a good tool to show the current financial situation of our countries ...
Trusting that this information is accurate, I enjoy this app. It will be an eye opener for some people
This app has a very clean and user friendly interface and is very interesting and informative. Thanks good job.

Some bad moments

It crashed, I deleted it and downloaded it and it stayed on one country and would let me choose a different country.
When the thousands place moves faster than the hundreds place, the counter is obviously faked and flawed. The counter should at least appear to count correctly.
I hate when app developers update an app in order to make using the free version more annoying. This developer just did that: now, on top of the obnoxious pop-up ads and the messages asking to upgrade the app, there is an "upgrade" message on every graph! I also wonder if the developer has some mainland China affiliations (Taiwan is called a "province of China"!). I know Apple does not like to get involved in geopolitics but this is a serious breach in neutrality.
Has a review of a countrys debt for over 100 countries, it It updates its debt database for all countries every 6 months, includes options to use local, Us, or Euro currencies to see debt in. Truly an amazing app!
But now it crashes EVERY time I try to open it - been this way for months!
Excellent summary of multiple debt clocks. Great for reference. Keep up the great work. GRNBXRE
