User reviews

Useful app

This app is wonderful in the lab!

How doesn’t my search pop up

I drew a formula, I wrote the name down but this engine still couldn’t show any results. Very disappointing

Instructions would be nice

How do I draw a carboxyl group attached to benzene? I can’t even get the app to let me add a ‘C’, let alone ‘COOH’.
