  • Not very helpful

    I purchased this app with the hope that it would help me with my physics homework and learning physics. I immediately put it to the test but found the app to be incapable of helping. For example, if I want to calculate the charge of 2 ions, given the mass, distance, and force, the app is unable to come up with an answer for this because it has no capability of setting those parameters. Very disappointed. I would not recommend this app for a student learning physics until Wolfram is able to add functionality.
  • Not very helpful

    It's all calculators for specific functions, it doesn't do much in the way of actually helping you learn physics.
  • Sad excuse for a "program"

    The "program" is extremely limited. For example, if you need force, then it only has two slots open for mass and acceleration. It won't help you solve for mass using Ke=1/2mv^2 to get velocity and then to get initial and final velocity and to get acceleration which is what physics is about. Using all the formulas to your knowledge to solve the problem. Don't even think about downloading this program if you need to solve word problems because I'm 100% sure it can not do it. This program should be used for maybe highschoolers but for college level, it is simply useless. There is no flexibility. I expected more from a 3.00$ application.
  • Not Impressed!!

    This is really overpriced, and has very limited uses. It can't do anything that WolframAlpha can't do. I expect to see more uses for this in future updates..
  • Usefull

    Its a very useful tool when you are in college. Thou I recommend they update the app for new iPad owners.
  • Great

    Fantastic app. No crash issues. So very helpful!!!
  • Big Fan of Wolfram, not of this app.

    I purchased this app to go along with a Physics course and every time I attempt to use it, the app crashes. I have contacted the developers and filed complaint and Apple with no response. Please fix this app!
  • Nonstarter

    I'm afraid I just wasted my money on this app. Like the other reviewer found, start screen comes up and the app hangs. This app is non-functional on my iPhone 4S and needs revision. And for the record, it's not working on my iPad either!
  • Crashes frequently

    Nice app layout. Lots of useful info. Crashes like crazy on my iPhone 4s. You probably don't want to waste your money on it.
  • A Lifesaver

    There isn't an app. that is this good. I need this app and when I got it I love it. WRA is the best website and you also have some of the best apps. thank you.
