## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2020-10-13, version 5.0.2.60*

Have downloaded on iPhone and app won’t open just crashes straight away

### 1/5 — Crashes on app start

*2020-09-23, version 5.0.2.60*

Currently unusable on ios14, crashes to the Home Screen

### 1/5 — Needs a password

*2016-10-17, version 1.4*

App doesn't work, you need a password that seems to be unattainable. If you can't get the password it is a waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Limited

*2014-10-30*

This app only includes 100 substances, as it is a free demo version.  It is not an MSDS. To be honest, I'm not sure when you would use this.

### 2/5 — Can’t rotate the app screen

*2019-01-18, version 5.0.0.29*

Looks alright, but unable to work out how to rotate the app on my ipad for landscape type view, so not useable with with my folder/keyboard.

### 2/5 — Not sure who this is for

*2011-05-19*

This uses chemical names, not common names. Searches for bleach, ammonia, and kerosene all come up empty. Search for sodium hypochlorite comes back with an entry, but the information included is quite limited.

Maybe this is great for some industrial users, but it is not for laymen.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-11-25, version 5.0.6*

A great app and love the bar code scanner I just wish you could use it to update items during chemical audits.

### 5/5 — Loving the barcode scanning

*2019-10-29*

It is so much quicker to scan a product and have all the details straight away.

### 5/5 — Chem Alert MSDS

*2011-06-19, version 1.0*

A very handy application for anyone working in hazardous industry where there may be exposure to dangerous chemicals.

I had previously written a poor review of this app and now must eat my words as it has proven itself worthy for use in the work place.

I would suggest that the developers consider including a page detailing possible uses for the chemicals i.e.  Used in the dry cleaning industry or commonly used as an additive in the manufacture of petroleum products.  This can assist in "getting your head around a product that you may not have heard of".

Would also be helpful to have listed "common name" references to assist with the identification of chemicals.

All in all, an excellent start to a handy app.  
