I really miss the ability to direct the particles around the nucleus with two fingers, instead of...whatever is happening now when I multitouch. Any chance we could get that old multitouch back? Or is there a similar app? ### 2/5 — Clunky and outdated *2017-06-25* The active screen is just a portion of the iPhone 6s. Off center, clunky, no real atomic properties or simulation. **Developer response:** The off center issue should have been fixed with version 2.1 - could you please send a pic to pdjapps@gmail.com with what you're seeing? Thank you! ### 3/5 — Okay, I'm upgrading my rating. *2017-06-01* I used to really like playing with this app, but after the last upgrade they completely changed it. I don't like playing with it now, but I have raised my rating to three stars instead of the one star rating I gave it for two reasons. First, I don't like it but it is still fun if you aren't mourning the loss of the old app. Second, the level of developer response I have received is above and beyond anything I could have expected. They seemed to sincerely want to get specifics about what I don't like. Nice. ### 4/5 — Won't work on IPhone 6 Plus *2017-04-30* First off, I love this app. It's a lot of fun to play with and waste time. However the one thing that's off is that the nucleus display is not centered on the IPhone 6 Plus. The touch activation is still dead center, just the nucleus is visually off and unsymmetrical and a bit annoying. I've play otherwise on a friend's IPad and iPhone 7. But for my 6plus it won't be centered. Please fix. Nonetheless y'all are genius for making this app. Maybe next time include a vibrate function? ### 2/5 — Needs more features *2015-07-02* This app is very good and fun to play with but it needs a lot more particles and particle size needs to be variable and needs a selectable color palette and other features to it ### 2/5 — Didn't like it. *2013-08-11, version 1.6* I think that Tesla Toy is much better. Это приложение вообще не понравилось. Хуйня какая-то многофункциональная. ### 3/5 — Atomic Toy *2013-04-25* Where are the "photos" once they are taken? They do not show up in my photo album. ### 4/5 — WOW *2013-03-19* AMAZINGG GET IT SO FUN ON IPAD ### 2/5 — Na ja.... *2013-03-18* Ganz nett - und sonst? Wird schnell langweilig, that's all. ### 3/5 — Okay...... *2013-03-18, version 1.6* Pretty cool but its hard to get the exact design you want...I think this app should be free all the time ### 3/5 — its ok *2013-03-17, version 1.6* like the app, but image quality is poor ### 5/5 — Great App *2013-03-17* I use this app to entertain my 5 month old for when we're in the car too long. Much better than Pushy Pixles. No ads and it I like the sticky fingers option. ### 3/5 — This should be free. *2012-07-31, version 1.6* I ysed it to make a nice background, it's fun to play aorund with, but there are free apps that are ebtter than this! Just get PushyPixels. It's free and you get more options. Nuff siad. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2012-04-14* Best app ever. I love to play it. By the way emma_lou_who sticky fingers means that the pattern you have will stay when you take your fingers off the screen ### 5/5 — fantastic visual stuff *2012-02-24* a trip for fun ... use virtual shrooms and fly into the outerspace. realy good artwork ... thanx mate. ### 3/5 — Good *2012-02-04* Its okay but i got it when it was free so i think £1.50 is a bit steep ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — not recommend *2013-11-27* get ATOMUS instead of ### 1/5 — Abysmal *2013-11-03, version 1.7* This recent update has killed this app. I am very sad that it did. ### 1/5 — Backfisch *2013-04-05* Blabla bei mir war das umsonst ich würde es nicht kaufen ### 1/5 — Atomic Toy is no good. Tesla Toy is better. *2012-01-09* Atomic Toy is not as exciting or as interesting as Tesla Toy. The lights do a lot less than Tesla Toy. My four-year-old child said to me "Mum, this game is boring. It doesn't do much like the other game (Tesla Toy)." A four-year-old child can see that this is not a good app! Spend your $2 elsewhere! ### 1/5 — charge problem V1.6 *2011-12-06, version 1.6* I bought this app $0.99 but 2days after $1.99 charged added, Please refund ~ ### 1/5 — Stolen *2011-06-17, version 1.6* They stole pictures that I made when I got this app for free! I have no idea how they got them but I'm kinda freaked out a little bit!! ### 1/5 — Crappy *2011-03-29, version 1.5* So stupid it's totally not worth it don't buy it! ### 1/5 — Ué? *2011-03-08* Não era de graça? ### 1/5 — Хрень *2010-12-27* Полнейшая ПАРАША ### 1/5 — 읔 왜 이래 *2010-12-23* 발열때메 터지는줄 알았음 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Game is awesome 😁 *2017-04-23* This game is awesome and worth every penny it keeps you busy and is really fun to play!!!😀 defiantly should buy!🙂 ### 5/5 — Beautiful and mesmerizing *2017-04-23* I also have Particle Box, Cyclotron, and my favorite, Sand Garden. From what I have seen, this developer creates apps that are interactive art experiences that are wonderful and enjoyable. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that using an app like this is healthy for the mind, like walking a labyrinth. Get it! ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍👍 *2015-02-21* Keeps me occupied for hours after dropping a tab. 😜😜😜 ### 5/5 — Fun and relaxing *2015-02-21* This is a very relaxing toy. It brings out the kid in me, letting me create and watch some very interesting and colorful patterns and animations. ### 5/5 — It's nice *2014-07-22* This app does everything they show it does, with high resolution and selectable effects. ### 5/5 — So fun *2014-03-24* This app is one if the funniest that my child had played and won't quit playing !!!! ### 5/5 — Great *2013-03-28* Looks so cool even on my 3GS much better than you think ### 5/5 — Really neat! *2013-03-18* I thought this was pretty lame at first, but I kept messing around with it and the different features and it's actually pretty neat! My 6 yr old daughter and I have made some awesome wallpapers that I would actually use. Glad I kept messing with it beyond my initial impression! My daughter loves it too! ### 5/5 — تطبيق رائع *2013-03-18, version 1.6* التطبيق رائع جداً شكرًا لكم ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2013-03-17* Easily creates mesmerising backgrounds, cracking little app :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
