Leave a Review Oovium
outstanding concept but pitiful documentation
Even 11 years old and I’m still a huge fan of this and sadly the programmer is not contactable. i’m only writing this because I see that the subscription is not automatically renewed.I get the feeling this is an abandoned project now which is sad because it is really very cool it just needs some better terminology and vastly better documentation. If you Google hard enough you might find some Vimeo videos which are really bad showing you how to use it but otherwise be prepared to spend a lot of time with trial and error.Show lessSurjpdx
Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback. Subscriptions have been removed. The app is now entirely free; no need to renew the subscription. You can contact me via the website (aepryus.com) or head to the discord server. From iOS you can find the discord server from the red dot menu: Help/Links/Discord; from macOS you can use the top menu: Links/Discord. I’ll be happy to answer any and all questions you may have; I look forward to hearing from you!Mac app not at all clear
The web tutorial only really describes the iOS (iPad) app. The Mac version is different and if you follow the tutorial, bad things happen. Most notably it refers to "hit the '=' key" often but does not mean your physical mac keyboard. Hitting that bizzarely inserts two equal signs in the bubble.Chairface70
I paid for a subscription but I can’t use the app
Subscription is paid but you wont let me use the app. Please return my money.why do i need a nickname ??@
Great Potential, but a Very Poor Marketing Approach.
I have oovium classic on my iphone, but the paid version is too expensive, as well as too limited in accessibility to afford. I WISH there was a pay-once option, (not sure if I know enough to say this, but $30 a year from each user is quite excessive, and presumably why the app has only 17 reviews for the 4+ years it (the paid app) has been on the app store.)
If you made the app into a one-time purchase worth at least no more than $10, but ideally $3.99 or less, then you would have exponentially more purchasers that would (likely) result in well-over 20x your current earning rate. Then, if necessary, raise the purchase price for new buyers by maybe a dollar or two, once Oovium has gathered a wide-spread reputation, and earn even more. You could possibly obtain donation money as well from strongly-supportive clients.
The only applications that can somewhat-justifiably get away with $30+ yearly subscriptions, are name-brand tools like adobe photoshop, Microsoft Office, etc.
However, the most painful thing to see is that Oovium is Apple-exclusive. No one is going to be able to save Oovium if someone creates an open-source donation-based alternative with wider cross-platform availability.Show lessCaddark
Disappointed
Crashes on launch on iPad. Used platform this to tell developers. Support via Reddit?LDRoadie
No recent updates, has lost functionality
This app hasn't been updated in a long time. It hasn't kept up to date with iOS changes and hence no longer works as advertised. For example links to Dropbox no longer work. A great pity because it was an excellent app.mik094
Just amazing

Almost Great
I love the idea of this app. I could be extremely useful and even game changing. I just wish it would work with my Logitech keyboard. I wish it had a manual or a help file or even pop up labels for its icons. I wish it had a loop structure other than recursion. I wish it had graphing and graphics capabilities. Other than that it is so compelling I can't stop playing with it.Show lessSnickshift
Really useful app
This app allows me to prototype engineering design genetic algorithm and genetic programming models before I launch into coding. Great for visually analyzing a single example output to debug the logic. Very useful and handy since my iPad mini is quick and available.dingo9
Oovium is ALIVE!!!
Guys,
This app is great. It has use possibilities that haven't even been realized yet. I gave it 4 stars instead 5 because of where it is now as opposed to its destination. This app is in its infancy stages and between its developer and the end users, this can grow to something universally useful for everyone.
I needed to utilize support recently and the response was excellent. The developer is also invested in its success. The company is small but diligent. I have been told by the developer that a new iteration of Oovium is being worked from the ground up and taking what is possible now and expanding its possibilities even more.
