Need cartoon representation

Awesome App, would be great and extremely useful to have cartoon and ribbon representation of protein molecules. Space filling does not really work for complex molecules

Okay but......

About as much as one would expect, given that this app is free. Okay for visualizing spacial arrangement of atoms within molecules but, as previous reviewer mentioned, no multiple bonds are shown. And don't rely on this app showing you the true stereochemical arrangement of molecules, e.g., maleic and fumaric acids are cis and trans isomers (or E/Z configurations) of but-2-enedioic acid but the molecule for each shows just the cis (Z) isomer. So,don't use this app as a reliable learning tool for stereochmistry.

Awesome

Awesome app!

Wonderful

It's just soooooo useful

Cool!!

Really helpful if you're having trouble visualizing the general shape of a molecule, but it's limited in that it doesn't differentiate between single, double and triple bonds in the models.

AWESOME!!!!!

Great app. It would b good if u could edit information of a new molecule

Needs one major thing

Momentum flicking, like I'm Elements. Other than that ****.

Awesome

This is so awesome. Those who are not geeks or aren't nerds or don't have a degree in chemistry, don't get this app. Otherwise, totally get this app.

Great little toy for non-professional scientist

I really love this app. I have no need to look at the molecules except a science background and inquisitive nature, and this hits all my buttons.
Full marks have to go to the developers for giving it away for free and linking it to free databases for further downloads. I would have happily paid 59p for expansion packs but these guys obviously value science over profit.
No complaints from this amateur, looking forward to more apps of a similar nature/future refinements.

Brilliant

You know an app is good when you mess around with it for longer than is socially acceptable. Fantastic, interesting, awesome app for anyone even remotely interested in the stuff we can't see.
Some things could be improved, however. A database naming all if the coloured atoms would be helpful and, as mentioned in previous reviews, double and triple bonds.
This app would also be useful to students, like myself, struggling to get their head around structures of molecules.
