No longer works

Can’t connect to any server, says url is not supported. No molecules pre loaded on app. If I have to download everything manually it’s not worth much, I can just use Google and look at stuff on a browser.

Unable to do anything with this

There seems to be no documentation.

I’d like to be able to build a simple molecule, find its shape and judge its polarity. No way to do any of this that I can find. Perhaps it’s intended for something else, but no way to know.

Another take-it-as-is-or- leave-it item on the App Store.

What the heck?

This used to be such an easy app to use with fabulous results. Now I can't figure out how to use it. Why do I have to download data into my phone, search for it, and hope the app doesn't crash when I try to open said data? I'm sorry I updated this app.

Why not add direct download from the app?

Build a feature to access databases?

Hi, I just re-downloaded after not using this for years. I want to show my primary school students some molecules in class.

Can you add a feature to the app that allows me to go directly to the RCSB and PubChem databases within the app and download files?

I have not attempted to download them outside the app yet, but I’m anticipating it’s going to be fiddly and frustrating 😕

What molecules?

I downloaded the app to use it with my students (I’m a high school science teacher). Where are the molecules? Do I have to hunt around and find them myself? I had an old version of this app that included lots of molecular models. It no longer works with the current iOS. Your new app is useless to me as is.

No instructions or sample files

The app opens directly to an empty iCloud folder without any instructions as to how to get molecular models.

Can't load on verification support, from Apple himself. Grrrrrr.... I don't know, maybe kopftuch disaster. (To young for experience)

Excited about molecules

Love this app so much but now Apple says I can’t use it until it’s updated to iOS 11. Can you all please update this app so it complies with iOS 11 standards? Please and thank you :)

No longer works at all

Hi lovely Sunset Lake devs,

Do you have any plans to update this one so it will work with current iOS (iOS 12 as I write this review)? I really liked the app, but iOS refuses to run it now.

Thanks, keep up the good work!

This app is fantastic

This app is super extensive and has helped me in understanding a lot of the chemistry behind biology.

The app follows standard coloring so just look online for the rules and you will know what each atom is.

A lot of the standard proteins/molecules you want will be the first one with the strange name of numbers and capital letters.

Also double bonds aren't shown so don't get too confused.

Cheers,
Kevin
