### 4/5 — si seulement..

*2025-12-29*

une application très intéressante, quasi indispensable pour des fans de chimie qui souhaitent s’améliorer,       merci beaucoup.
pour ma part je ne souhaite  qu’une seule chose : un mise à jour s’il vous plait.     j’aimerai juste pouvoir transvaser les liquides par évaporation et pouvoir faire des distillations, cristallisations, concentration correcte        merci encore pour votre travail.

### 2/5 — Good Idea; Poor Execution

*2024-05-01, version 5.2*

I like the concept of a chemistry app to perform simulated experiments. However, the current edition of the application is very buggy. For example, the pH paper doesn’t work, and the pipes have a visual error where they don’t bend currently and just stick out of each other. I hope that this program receives development in the future, but it is currently in a very poor state.

### 4/5 — Any updates coming soon?

*2023-12-12, version 5.2*

This is a great app; and considering it has been around a few years, I believe it is time for updates.

### 3/5 — ph

*2023-08-27*

ph 반응이 안됩니다ㅠㅠ 빠른 수정 부탁드려요

### 4/5 — 尚可

*2023-06-06*

感觉挺有创意但实验器材太少实验方法不全（比如排水法，和需要集气瓶倒过来的等等）再有就是感觉药品少（不确定）总体感觉还是稍微较差。要是能解决以上问题相信能找来更多用户购买

### 4/5 — Limited chemicals

*2022-07-21*

You should add more chemicals like limewater universal indicator etc….

### 3/5 — Great game but,

*2022-07-20, version 5.2*

add more chemicals and reactions!!! Pls also fix the tubing I’m on a iPhone 12 Pro and every time I place tubing down it looks like it tears or breaks.

### 4/5 — 지시약이나 pH미터가 반응하지 않아요

*2022-03-27*

그리고 지시약 종류에 페놀프탈레인이나 메틸오렌지도 추가해주시면 좋겠어요

### 4/5 — Good but needs work

*2022-03-25, version 5.2*

Liquids aren’t showing up properly

### 4/5 — Please fix this

*2021-11-27, version 5.2*

Hi I like this app but on iPhone, it’s really tiny on my screen even though I have a iPhone 12 Pro Max. Thanks.

### 2/5 — Good concept but lacking in practice

*2021-10-26, version 5.2*

Decent app but very limited with the chemicals and equipment so I find myself never being able to do what I want to with it

### 4/5 — I like it but please add some stuff and make an update read below 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

*2021-10-07*

Please update it and add more liquids and stuffs like cooler in beaker app by thix and the chemical names are confusing so enable an option like the beaker app by thix where you can change the name of the periodic table and make it original names like H20 into water and c02 into carbon dioxide and there some bugs and update it but I like it

### 4/5 — great!

*2021-08-28, version 5.2*

what i don’t think people get is that this is a chemistry simulator program, not a game. no tutorial is needed.

v good, lots of reactions to try out!

p.s. can we get a cooler? like the bunsen burner but COLD

### 4/5 — The ph test paper cannot change color, it alway appears the same color(7.0)

*2021-08-14, version 5.2*

Please tell me how to use it.

### 2/5 — Deceived by language

*2021-04-29*

I bought this app for my kids. The explanation said that it has Japanese translation. But the terms translated are less than minimum. At least it should has translations of chemical substances. Anyone can easily find translations such as "硫酸カルシウム" for "calcium sulfate". Using just google translate service takes just a few seconds. Efforts are small but fruits should be great. Please attach the translations of chemical substances. Thanks in advance.

### 4/5 — 화학식 수정해주세요

*2021-03-10*

화학식에 등호가아니라 화살표로 부탁합니다.

### 4/5 — 改进

*2021-02-08*

关于一些实验和一些化学方程式希望增加一些，当加热时试管应该加一个可以倾斜角度的装置

### 5/5 — Great App

*2021-02-07, version 5.2*

This is one of the favorite apps that I have found. It seems to have realistic and plentiful chemical reactions to work with. There are also a plethora of chemicals to work with. I also really like the lab equipment and options.

### 1/5 — I want my money back

*2022-11-02*

I want my money back. So many bugs and wrong reactions. Minecraft is more realistic than this app. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — bugs

*2022-09-22, version 5.2*

game has a lot of bugs and freezes when your in the middle of something. some reactions that should happen don’t. pretty basic on the lab gear. wish i wouldn’t have bought it

### 1/5 — Interface not intuitive. Abandoned development

*2020-06-27, version 5.1.1*

It does not scale accurately on the Ipad Pro.  UX is counterintuitive. Lack of sustained improvements.
Developer unresponsive.
Looks like abandoned development.

### 1/5 — Stopped working with latest OS update

*2020-06-24, version 5.1.1*

iPadOS 13.5.1 this update ruined the app

No controls on screen bottom. No notebook, no unit controls, nothing other than lab reset. 

I paid for this app, please fix or refund

### 1/5 — No

*2020-04-26, version 5.1.1*

User manual on web, launches Safari. 
Bye

### 1/5 — Poor interface

*2020-04-05, version 5.1.1*

This app has the potential to be really great but the interface really needs to be upgraded. I deleted it after 2 minutes.

### 1/5 — Looks slick but doesn’t actually do anything

*2019-11-29, version 5.1.1*

Instead of only giving you the chemicals they built in reactions for, they just added everything with no functionality

### 1/5 — Basically does not work

*2019-10-06, version 5.1.1*

So reading ph of nitric acid etc all reads 7, so that’s broken. Attempting to light methanol seems to not burn. Nothing I did really did much of anything expect maybe smash a few beakers, but no details, help or what happened. This is a great idea, but it’s not actually useful. I’ll go for a refund if I could work out how. Avoid, it’s not even worth it if free, but at $15 it’s about the worst of the 400 apps I have.
Button line it’s a bad app, but it could have been great and one of the best. It’s not!
I’ve done chemistry at High School and University, so it’s not like I have no idea!

### 1/5 — 还需要改进

*2019-07-18*

比如说固体物质还有很多是没有的，还有前面也有人过来评论过所有物质的ph都为7，这个就是明显的错误了还有过滤中玻璃棒的引流问题，以及过滤后最好能观察沉淀的状态颜色以及相对应的质量。不然卖那么贵的价格，软件没跟上来，喜欢这个软件的人会越来越少的。

### 1/5 — disappointed at best

*2019-06-01, version 5.1.1*

none of the reactions work right. they either don’t happen or react randomly with something i didn’t add. this is a horrible app. do not buy it. i thought an app that costs 9 dollars would actually be functional, but i guess my low bar expectations were still too high. to reiterate: DO NOT BUY THIS APP. ITS A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2024-09-22, version 5.2*

Thank you

### 5/5 — Hey, Suggestion

*2023-11-29, version 5.2*

I understand you updated this 2 years ago and nothing else but you should add some things in 5.3, maybe lab trays, which are needed for the next feature, the lab dryer, it makes liquids solids, and you also should add the lab condenser, it basically makes gases liquids, oh and you should add Xenon, and Radon, we have Helium, Neon, and Argon, might as well complete the noble gases family

### 5/5 — Majestic

*2023-10-14, version 5.2*

I showed this to my head of science department teacher and she is now using it in her lessons.

### 5/5 — Only did five star so you can see it

*2023-08-28, version 5.2*

Bad game

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2023-02-27*

Pathbreaking idea, and the idea is executed in style. May God bless you. (Unable to use family sharing and my kids are not able to see it their iPads owing to a policy by Apple I don’t understand. They say parent account should have a valid payment method and then don’t allow to create one by any single way!)

### 5/5 — 硫酸

*2022-12-17*

硫酸どう作る

### 5/5 — Awesome but…

*2022-05-28, version 5.2*

I love the game but I REALLY think you should add the ingredients for rocket fuel, like sugar. That’s all.

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2021-03-22*

Hello sir  my names Muhammad and I study in Chemistry Department i want suggest something about this app .., that’s very happy for all chemists in the world i hope continue update this app to more and more info about chemistry.,
I have some suggestions such as :; 
1- all equipment don’t available in this app i hope update and add some equipment that’s very important in chemistry like (( separatory Funnel,, hot plate .,, water bath .,, hood ,,, oven ,, spatula,,)) 
2- some material don’t available 
3- i want to rise quality 
Thanks for all thing i hope successful all time 
I waiting for updates 
Good luck 🌹

### 5/5 — 目前觉得不方便的，就是每个物质都只显示符号，不显示中文，查起来麻烦。

*2021-02-28*

哎，小孩子用，只有符号没有中文名称，比较麻烦，希望升级能改进一下。

### 5/5 — 希望添加一下功能

*2021-02-15*

整体还不错，但还希望开发者可以添加一下几点：
1.希望添加漏斗，不然真的不好用。
2.试管可以支持倒放和斜放（实验经常用到）
3.翻译不够全，有些可以发生反应的物品在应用中没体现（例如铝热反应在应用中就没办法实现）
4.不能导管在试管中伸入的长度。
