### 3/5 — Application bails out

*2026-05-09, version 1.0*

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

### 5/5 — This is cool

*2026-04-02, version 1.0*

This app is amazing because it lets you zoom in and out freely and the best part…. ITS COMPLETELY FREE! this app is so cool and you can mess around with diffrent fractals it’s so cool get it now

### 5/5 — Any more?

*2026-03-06, version 1.0*

Add a Power Slider for the Exponent (-10 to 10) and the Burning Ship and Tricorn, Celtic and Buffalo, And a Celtic Mandelbar, and Perpendicular Mandelbrot, Perp. Burning Ship, Heart, Simonbrot, Feather Fractal, and So many more like Perp. Celtic, Perp. Buffalo and Celtic Heart. Make it so you can type in the power too. Also add a formula maker and Simonbrot Inverted, Perpendicular Feather, Tricorn Feather, and Burning ship feather and Simonbar and Simonbar inverted.

### 5/5 — R

### 5/5 — Fractal Treasures

*2026-02-12, version 1.0*

Fantastic app for discovering hidden and, I feel, true nature of numbers

### 5/5 — Amazing, but could be better

*2026-02-11, version 1.0*

I love this. If you want to start exploring the Mandelbrot set, download this app. It can even make little zoom videos for you. I do have a few critiques, though.

It would be cool to have a Kalles Fraktaler styled color system where you pick the colors in the set instead of the built-in color system.

It would also be cool to let people make it zoom slower.

Also, if the app closes, the zoom sequence stops rendering and you have to start over.

But overall, these limitations don’t take away from the app’s ability to render fractals at such deep locations. And don’t even get me started on how they managed to get the fractals to have infinite iterations. This app is crazy.

### 5/5 — I want to see tung tung tung sahur 😭😭😭

*2026-02-09, version 1.0*

I can’t find it.

### 5/5 — Any more?

*2026-02-03*

Add a Power Slider for the Exponent (-10 to 10) and the Burning Ship and Tricorn, Celtic and Buffalo, And a Celtic Mandelbar, and Perpendicular Mandelbrot, Perp. Burning Ship, Heart, Simonbrot, Feather Fractal, and So many more like Perp. Celtic, Perp. Buffalo and Celtic Heart. Make it so you can type in the power too.

### 1/5 — WHY IS THIS HORRIBLE DEVELEPOR

*2026-01-30, version 1.0*

I REALLY REALLY hate this game cause of the lag. And it’s not letting me produce 8K images.

### 5/5 — Amazing app and lets you uview the Mandelbrot set and doesn’t have a limit

*2025-12-11, version 1.0*

This app is amazingly free and has a lot of customisations available like colours, brightness, complexity? and I used it to get beautiful fractal art and views. Amazing!!!

### 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.
