User reviews

Useless app

Basically you are buying a picture of the Mandelbulb set up in front of different backgrounds. You can do some minor adjustments but this is nothing worth anyones time. I guess if you scam enough people into buying this then these developers can sit back and be β€œproud”? If you have any former experience with this fractal then this is not what you are seeking. Save your two dollars or better yet , throw it in the street, flush two dollars down the toilet , find a wishing well, put two bucks in the tithe basket at church. All of these are a waste of time like this app. I immediately deleted it after looking around for maybe five minutes. Lame controls , extremely limited . This is a scam app.

Fun Enough...

But it only has one Equation in it and it doesn't allow the user to play around with more variances, There are a lot of ways to go with this; and if this app is actually calculating all of these points on the fly, this would be a simple thing to do -- But it may be that it's ( merely ) a very clever animation toy ???

Not fun, iPad crashes

Interesting & it works as of this review

While it takes a good deal of experimentation with the controls and manipulation on screen, once you get a sense of how to control the app outside of the default settings you can achieve images worthy of keeping.

Exporting at high resolution works as of iOS 12.2 on my iPad Pro 10.5” works fine, both in Norma and red/blue 3D.

I would like to see both a stereo dual image option (viewer and cross-eyed) along with AR capability to bring this app up to date with current technology.

Hard crash

This app crashes iOS, so the hard restart is the only way out. Not ready for the commercial release. Tested on iPad Pro.
