  • Good & Creative with great potential

    This app is terrific. Unique and creative. It allows you to work with values and the relationships between values in a visual freeform way. Think spreadsheet with free floating cells unanchored from a grid. This will not be an app for everyone, it is a matter of taste in how you think. I love spreadsheets and this app does not replace 'em. But this is the only app I can turn to that works in the way my mind needs to for some types of problems. So when I do use it, I love it and I support it with 5 stars. An app that I fully appreciate having.

    Very nice app. Very creative. Think mind mapping for calculations.

    Looking forward to future versions to realize it's fuller potential.

  • Worst App I Ever Purchased

    This app is a waste of time and money. It is horrrrrrrrrible.
  • The BEST calculator app I've had the pleasure to experience.

    The only reason the I refrained giving this app 5 stars is that the 5th star is reserved for when the app has graphing capabilities. I love this app. I can't say enough about it. I'm able to do proof of concept calculations on the fly and keep a meeting moving forward. Mapping and calculations on the same screen. That puts a big smile on my face. :-D

    Keep up the great work,

  • Tedium

    Crashes regularly and feels like a work in progress. Lot's of work required for this to be a serious app. Disappointed as the concept has potential but the implementation is not intuitive enough and on screen instructions are clunky. Why not just a series of screenshots and text as help rather than the on screen hints which don't even rotate with the screen orientation.

  • Great Update!

    This app just keeps getting better
  • Great tool!

    This is a great tool. Sort of a combination mind mapping, spreadsheet, functions, logic, calculator in one. There's a lot of activity from the development team. It's definitely worth the money. As they continue improve the product the applications seem endless. Thanks guys, keep it up!
  • Its a great ap

    Very unique approach to working with numbers. Has some minor stability problems but I really like working with it. The developer seems to be working hard to correct the bugs.
  • Odd, unwieldy interface prevents real use

    I get that the developer doesn't like the standard iOS interface, but the new interface acts peculiar and you are left guessing how to do things.
    Delete an Aether? Change the Aether settings? Rename an Aether? Drop the number box thing out of your way? Undo? Change the default black background to something else? I don't have any cues or clues for how to do these things in the new interface. The iOS interface may not suit everyone's tastes, but at least it's obvious how to delete/rename/hide/scroll...

    The little in-app tutorial is good, but only limited to how to make bubbles. The help on anchoring is fine, but where are the rest of the help files?

    Video-based information is useless for people that can't view videos on websites (many places have this locked down!)

    Unless cues and clues for using the interface are added or the developer uses the iOS interface, the app's interface prevents many of the possibilities/features from actually being used, so they might as well not even be there. I hope this is fixed very soon.

  • Perfect for mind mapping product pricing

    I watched all the tutorial videos at he oovium web site, before taking the plunge to buy oovium. If you love mindmapping or if you don't and you need a mini spreadsheet with a nifty way to calculate then oovium is for you. I cn create mini sheets (grids) that link to other calculating cells an all spruced up with some mini mind maps - all on the same page (aether). It's also great as a quick what if when presenting to clients too.

    Plus the author response is very quick. And he's very approachable. Give it a go.

  • More than an app - a work of art

    Five stars for the conceptual leap alone. Would benefit from more comprehensive documentation. Makes the iPhone interesting at last. That Walter Smith thinks highly of it says it all.

    Did I mention it's also highly useful?

    Keep it up!
