Good but Not Great

When I save my Mandelbrot zoom videos, their files are as big as a gigabyte which is too much to handle. And the app has glitches in it. it has never been updated.

Application bails out

It looks like a great app but. Just as it loads a default image, the app unceremoniously and silently crashes.

What are the key features of Retinamandelbrot?

Key features include extreme zoom capabilities into fractals, real-time Julia morphing, the ability to instantly change palettes and depiction modes, and the option to render with custom shaders. You can also export your creations as high-resolution images or videos and share specific fractal positions and settings via 'rmb://' links.

Is Retinamandelbrot free to use?

Yes, Retinamandelbrot is a free application. It does not have in-app purchases or advertisements, allowing for an uninterrupted exploration of fractals.

What can I do with the exported images and videos?

You can export your fractal explorations as high-resolution images or videos. These exports are perfect for sharing your discoveries, using them as desktop wallpapers, or incorporating them into artistic projects. The high resolution ensures that the intricate details of the fractals are preserved.

How can I share my fractal discoveries with others?

You can share your fractal discoveries in two main ways. Firstly, you can export your current view as a high-resolution image or video. Secondly, the app allows you to easily share the exact position and settings of a fractal by generating a unique 'rmb://' link, which others can use to load the same fractal configuration in their own instance of the app.
