Great but gimmick or glitch a little, close and reopen and not save progress

Great app but something sort gimmick or glitch while you use. Trying to press ok and have to close and reopen and unlock next atom and have to do it more than once doesn’t save. Also maybe different app or time but if I can add more than 1 atom or more reaction too will be great. Only use free so far am purchase $7 one because I love it

Can we have add atoms same as bottom to see what molecules make and reactions. All available are too designed structure we need throw together like this one !

It doesn’t work

What an awesome app

So helpful for seeing how atoms are created, made to be unstable, and decay into other atoms. A great representation, and even a little fun to play with.

Pls read this

I couldn’t unlock everything because I had to pay so at least you could’ve make that i can unlock everything with ads

why!!!!!

I used to like this game but now 🤬🤬🤬😡😠😠👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

FAQ

What does the Nuclear app do?

Nuclear is an educational application that allows users to explore the quantum world by building and learning about chemical elements at the atomic level. It dynamically models interactive atoms, enabling you to construct elements by adding or subtracting neutrons, protons, and electrons.

How do I learn about the elements?

You learn about the elements by constructing a stable version of each one. By adding or subtracting atomic building blocks, you can create virtually any base chemical element. Once a stable element is created, it is unlocked in the periodic table within the app.

Is the app free to use?

The initial app allows you to create and unlock the first 54 elements for free. The remaining elements can be unlocked through a small in-app purchase, providing access to the full periodic table.

Who is this app designed for?

This app is designed for a wide range of users, including children who are interested in learning about matter and how it works through play, as well as teachers seeking an engaging way to educate others about chemical elements.

What are the key features of Nuclear?

Key features include a stunning 3D visualization of the atom, the ability to explore the effects of manipulating matter at the atomic level, creating elements by adjusting protons, electrons, or neutrons, and observing unstable isotopes decay into more stable elements.
