This app hangs up when you try to use dropbox. Then I have to remove it and reinstall it. Please fix.

Good for the basics

I wish that there were more options when building a gear train, like the ability to have a rotating arm instead of fixed axial rotation. This addition would greatly increase the versatility of the app. The planetary gear animation is nice to get a basic understanding of the motion, but I would like the ability to add more planets to the system!

Very Creative and Useful

I really love the way it helps you understand how the planetary or regular gearbox work. Very handy and useful to find the ratio of a gear set with just simply touching and building the gear set in few seconds..
I love the animation of the planetary gearbox!

Rip off!

Rather than the fact that this app has NO significant features it also has no significant physics or amount of accuracy. Do not download this app its a waste of money...its only has one planetary gear and the editor allows only to connect 5 gears....shame on u developer for the amount of money paid....you are to greedy.... Stay away from this app

Not worth $5

This app does nothing. I was expecting to be able to design different gears. It basically is an animation and PDF. I wish there was a way to get my money back.
