### 4/5 — Good, but I have a suggestion

*2017-06-09*

Please make it possible for player to choose which functional groups they are going to be asked about, because then the app will be adjustable for the level of understanding required by each player's school. In my school, per example we only need to learn some of the group available in this app, so it is not totally useful for me. Congratulations for the app and keep improving it, you seem to be a very talented person.

### 1/5 — 請求された

*2021-07-17*

なんかお金請求されました。最悪。

**Developer response:** 返金についてはAppleに連絡するか、asmolgam @ gmail.comに領収書を送ってください。

### 1/5 — Nichts für Medizinstudium

*2020-02-25*

Also leider ist dieses Quiz viel zu schwer wohl eher fürn einen Chemiker .... was soll ich denn da lernen... schade

### 1/5 — Adds on a paid app

*2018-09-04*

I didn’t even bother using this app, the moment I opened it here comes the adds and this after paying for it. Forget it, the greed of this app will it’s death.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review of my app about functional groups.
If you don't like ads you can remove them for FREE in the app's settings.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2017-05-12*

No way to learn or refresh without just flipping through them and marking wrong. Descrtion claims learn easy first and move on, not true

**Developer response:** Hello! I may suggest you to start with the "Quiz (easy)" mode. There you can find functional groups listed in the order of increasing difficulty. Studying organic chemistry will always involve a lot of memorization, this app makes this task easier but unfortunately cannot eliminate it completely.
I changed description to reflect this idea.
Best wishes,
Andrey

### 1/5 — Werbung

*2016-06-17*

Die Inhalte und Funktionen der App sind sehr gut und durchaus ihr Geld wert.
Es ist aber eine Frechheit das eine kostenpflichtige App mit Werbung voll ist.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung meiner App zu funktionellen Gruppen. Jetzt können Sie die Werbung in den Einstellungen der App kostenlos entfernen.

### 1/5 — Dreiste Werbespots trotz Bezahlung

*2015-10-30*

Die App konstenpflichtig zu machen ist eine Sache. 
Eine App über Werbung zu finanzieren eine andere.
Aber den Kunden das Geld aus der Tasche zu ziehen und dann auch noch alles mit Werbung und zwangsWerbespots voll packen ist einfach nur dreist.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung meiner App zu funktionellen Gruppen. Jetzt können Sie die Werbung in den Einstellungen der App kostenlos entfernen.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2015-09-11*

You pay for an app that still has ads

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review of my app about Functional Groups. Now you can remove ads for free in the app’s Settings.

### 2/5 — ...

*2020-08-02*

Приложение неплохое, но раздел природные соединения очень бедный. На картинке с гормоном изображена формула, но нет никакой дополнительной информации о том, что это за гормон, даже названия этого конкретного гормона нет, то же самое и с остальными веществами: на карточке с алкалоидом, аминокислотой,  витамином, стероидом, да на всех карточках есть только подпись класса веществ,  формула какого-то вещества из этого класса без объяснения, что что за вещество. А на картинке с нуклеиновой кислотой - просто схематичное изображение двойной спирали. Этот раздел явно не доработан, потому что другое приложение с аминокислотами сделано гораздо лучше.

### 3/5 — Doesnt work with new IOS update

*2026-03-26*

Super useful app but it stopped working for me after the newest IOS update.

### 3/5 — Good for review but has ads

*2016-05-07*

It's a little annoying that while you pay for the app there are still ads running. And then there are links to other apps they have made which look like additional help. Kind of deceitful. However, the material is decent and the games help.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review of my app about Functional Groups. Now you can remove ads for free in the app’s Settings.

### 5/5 — Great app for reviewing

*2023-08-25*

Was having trouble with my functional groups from O chem, and needed a refresher for biochem and this app was great

**Developer response:** Thanks!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2023-07-29*

Perfect

**Developer response:** Thank you

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2022-09-22*

Ajuda bastante a fixar o conteúdo

**Developer response:** Obrigado!

### 5/5 — Groupement fonctionnel

*2022-09-07*

L’application est extrêmement pratique. On peut mémoriser les composés sans les apprendre par cœur.

**Developer response:** Je vous remercie !

### 5/5 — Great way to memorise biochemistry!!!

*2019-04-27*

Love it!

### 5/5 — Simplesmente Top! 👌

*2018-09-16*

Mt bom pra revisar as Funções e alguns outros assuntos adicionais. Muito obrigado, desenvolvedor!

### 5/5 — Побольше бы таких приложений!!!

*2016-05-16*

Замечательное приложение для подготовки к экзаменам

### 5/5 — Great for learning

*2015-08-10*

But better for brushing up. Could use more features but really great as is

### 4/5 — Super, aber es fehlt etwas

*2022-09-28*

Ich finde die Apps super, um „spielerisch“ die Trivialnamen zu lernen. Jedoch würde ich mich freuen, wenn man auch die IUPAC-Namen lernen könnte. Vllt könnte man es als Funktion zur Verfügung stellen, auf die man umschalten kann. Ich brauche das wissen für die Uni und den Verantwortlichen ist es wichtiger, dass wir die IUPAC können sollen

Ergänzung: wäre auch richtig cool, wenn ihr einarbeiten könntet, dass man flexibel aussuchen kann, welche Gruppen man lernt, denn ich brauche gar nicht alle

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback!

### 4/5 — Good app

*2021-04-30*

I used this app for learning functional groups for a chem exam and it definitely helped. The app tested me on more groups than I technically needed to know so a setting that allowed the user to select groups to be tested on would be nice. Overall clean app, great practice, and totally worth the price. Also you can turn off ads for free!
