### 4/5 — Molecules by Theodor Gray

*2026-01-14, version 2.0.1*

Sono ben 4 anni (troppi) che questa bellissima applicazione non viene aggiornata! Tra l’altro sembra che qui nessuno legga le recensioni perché vi è già stato scritto che manca il supporto alla lingua italiana. Le altre due applicazioni di questo autore hanno il supporto alla lingua italiana; quindi non si capisce come mai questa applicazione non supporta anche la lingua italiana. Pertanto confidiamo in un solerte e sostanzioso aggiornamento per fornire il supporto alla lingua italiana. Grazie mille e buon lavoro!

### 4/5 — Boring! Or maybe not.

*2024-10-17, version 2.0.1*

The only thing in this app is the Molecules-one star. OK I take it back. But since it was bad at first, I have to give it three stars. fine I can give it four stars. I was talking complete nonsense. Hooray, Mr. Gray.

### 4/5 — 支付问题

*2020-08-22*

我之前买了这个app，不小心删除了。重新下载，又让付钱，这是为什么呢？

### 4/5 — 좋은 앱이지만 여러가지 언어 추가 부탁합니다.

*2018-10-12*

이거 좋은 앱이긴 합니다. 하지만 다른 언어를 가진 사람에게는 아직 힘이 들수 있을뿐만 아니라 영어로만 되어 있어서 매우 읽기가 매우 까다롭습니다. 여러가지 언어를 추가해서 업데이트 부탁합니다.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2017-10-03, version 1.1.4*

Overall great but crashes every time I touch an image of a molecule to show wiggling mode

### 4/5 — Bitte auf Deutsch übersetzen!

*2017-01-10*

Gute Bildungsapp für Chemie.
Please translate to German!

### 3/5 — 日本語

*2016-02-28*

日本語対応していないのでお願いします

### 4/5 — Chinese translation please!

*2015-12-19*

I've bought the app for long, however I am not able to understand the book well. Really eager to have Chinese language!

### 5/5 — Die beste App, die man für Geld kaufen kann

*2015-12-15*

leider bisher nur auf Englisch

### 3/5 — Need translation to Chinese

*2015-12-14*

Fantastic app, but it's too hard to read without Chinese for Chinese people. Please update it!

### 4/5 — 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

*2015-12-14*

Please add more Languages

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-12-14, version 1.1.2*

Wonderful!  Accessible and educational while also very interesting. Well done!

### 4/5 — Amazing education!!!

*2015-12-14*

This application, molecules, gives people, young and old, a view of the nanoworld educating you in a fun and magical way. I recommend this app to anyone who enjoys learning. By L-A Lobanov

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unbrauchbar

*2024-12-27*

Leider unlesbar(minischrift weiśs in schwarz) das tue ich min nicht an

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2016-02-06, version 1.1.2*

Honestly, it feels like the dev copy/pasted info from Wikipedia, put it in an app with a cool color scheme and overpriced it shamelessly. It's essentially a trivia app full of info you could get elsewhere but priced as though it were a professional/educational tool.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2015-07-27, version 1.1.1*

Buy elements in action.

### 2/5 — 分子结构动画不能显示

*2017-09-22*

1、升级到iOS11后软件中的分子动态不能显示，闪屏退出；
2、中文纸版书已经出版，建议本软件也进行语言包升级。

**Developer response:** 你好。 我们以这种方式发现了影响应用程序的问题，目前正在进行更新以解决此问题。 请留意即将推出的更新。 谢谢！

### 2/5 — 日本語訳

*2016-07-02*

日本語訳が出て欲しい

### 2/5 — Good app, but...

*2015-10-07, version 1.1.1*

Need more languages

### 2/5 — IT NEEDS BETTER EDITING

*2015-10-04, version 1.1.1*

I DO LOVE THE STORY “MOLECULES” TELLS AND THE GRAPHICS ARE VERY NICE INDEED.  THERE ARE TWO MAJOR  PROBLEMS I SAW WITH THE APP.  ONE IS THAT THERE ARE SOME MOLECULES THAT ARE TOTALLY WRONG IN HIS LIBRARY.  TETRAHEDRANE, THE CHLOROPHYLLS, CYANOCOBALAMIN AND POSSIBLY OTHERS HAVE INCORRECT MOLECULAR STRUCTURES.  IT IS NOT CLEAR HOW THEY WERE GENERATED BUT THEY CERTAINLY WEREN’T EDITED BY A CHEMIST.    I AM CONCERNED THAT SINCE THESE OBVIOUS ERRORS WERE NEVER EDITED AND FIXED THAT THERE MAY BE MORE IN THE FILES OF MOLECULES THAT HAVE  INCORRECT MOLECULAR STRUCTURES.  THE SECOND CRITICISM I HAVE IS THAT THE INORGANIC MATERIALS ARE REPRESENTED AS A SET OF ATOMS IN THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA IN SOMETIMES A RANDOM ORDER AND NOT THE SOLID STATE STRUCTURES (FROM THE X-RAY STRUCTURES) WHICH CAN BE SHOWN QUITE NICELY IN THREE DIMENSIONS.  IF THESE ITEMS WERE FIXED I WOULD CHANGE MY REVIEW TO 5 STARS.

### 3/5 — Touch input bugs

*2019-05-24, version 2.0.0*

The latest update has caused the touch input to be off when interacting with the molecules on iPhone XS Max

Update: I saw the developer response and I have emailed them with the requested information and details and am awaiting a response or update. I have changed to 3 stars for good customer support and will update back to 5 stars when the bug is resolved.

### 3/5 — 求汉化！

*2018-08-15*

虽然球棍模型很棒，图片也很精美。但是……是英文！作者，为给你跪求汉化了！

### 3/5 — 日本語

*2017-10-10, version 1.1.4*

日本語翻訳して。
あとアプリ落ちるバグ直して

### 5/5 — Get this app

*2025-02-14, version 2.0.1*

If, like me, you endured, rather than enjoyed, High School chemistry, you need this app. It's authoritative, concise, and incredibly beautiful. The knowledge it contains is as essential to understanding what we see around us as literacy. Worlds open.

### 5/5 — Get this app

*2024-08-16*

Even if you agree with Henry Ford that science is bunk, you need this app. It's not just informative, it's gorgeous.

### 5/5 — Great app for intuitive understanding

*2020-01-01, version 2.0.0*

Seeing realistic molecular motion while reading about the real world implications was much more satisfying that my high school chemistry classes.

This entertaining app is divided into chapters about common chemical classes (lipids, acids, organic) and properties (color, smell) that combine quirky dad humor with interactive molecular models, 3D images, and videos.  It’s the most effective educational app I’ve used with and I hope it’s the future of textbooks.

The intuitions built here would be a excellent catalyst in learning how atoms behave and interact in a classroom setting.

### 5/5 — Jiggly molecules

*2019-11-26, version 2.0.0*

10/10 molecule physics! This app is awesome

### 5/5 — 不明收费，用优惠套餐补全两个软件，竟然比分开购买两个软件还贵！

*2018-12-06*

软件是很不错，我也很需要套餐内的三个软件。在苹果app支持网页投诉后，回复邮件给我竟然是建议让我联系应用开发者，我是从【App Store】上购买付款的啊！
我之前在手机上好像是花60元购买了【神奇的化学元素】这个软件，今天看到这个系列的软件有个优惠套餐，一共三个软件，剩下两个我没有购买，我以为优惠套餐价格会减去我之前购买其中一个软件所花费的价钱的。我就点击花110元购买了购买了。购买过的软件不会仔显示价格，但是我用电脑不登陆苹果账号，在itunes网页查到另外两个软件当天分别只卖30元跟68元，这样我为了补完剩下的两个软件，花费了一个优惠套餐的价格110元，不但没有减去我之前所花的成本，即使分别购买剩下的两个软件，加起来也不用再花110元啊？
苹果商店经营者如果实在不理解这件事情，简单的说就是【你们把两个软件提高价格后，放入一个优惠套餐，并且宣传比单独购买减少了xxxx元】。
这样很不合理吧，我要求给个合理方案，让我付出最少的金钱成本来购买套餐中的三个软件。

### 5/5 — Great!

*2018-10-24, version 1.2.0*

This app has little or no glitches, and is filled full of good information!

### 5/5 — 高中化学竞赛生不在乎它是不是英文

*2018-09-30*

因为应该能看懂

### 5/5 — Very informative. Well done.

*2017-12-02, version 1.1.6*

I found this app very well done and I learned a lot about molecules and the substances made from them. It provides a good visual representation which makes learning fun. You need the other apps “The Elements” and “In Action” so you can benefit from its full potential. I got all 3 apps and together they form a great learning experience. Works well with iOS 11 on my iPhone 8 Plus.

### 5/5 — 汉化

*2017-04-15*

尽快汉化

### 5/5 — 绝对的物所超值！

*2016-06-11*

我一直喜欢格雷的书，他的软件就要多多支持，用pad看特别震撼。但是美中不足的是这个软件是英文版的，希望能尽早推出中文版，感谢touchpress一贯做软件的精致！
