User reviews

Average

I can enter the real and imaginary coordinates and see the point within (or without) the Mandelbrot set. But I cannot move around in the set to look at other points.

Just Needs an Update

I love these course assistants by Wolfram. They are all well designed and solid nuggets of computation.
I only resent that they have apparently been abandoned. I get the message that they will slow my device because they have not been updated in three years.
Please make them compatible with the most recent iOS version and technology!

major disappointment

I want my money back or someone to update this app and make it worthwhile. I could create this in a day, overall 1/5 come on wolfram

Good fractal reference app

Pros:
Lots of fractals,
good organization,
Has some 3D fractals,
10+ iterations on some fractals.
Cons:
Could use retina display on fractal,
Zooming in on the fractal and full screen view would also be nice.

Crap

How disappointing.

This is useless for any research into fractals. So you'd think it'd be good for exploring fractals in an interactive, informative, educational and colourful way.

No. You get none of that.

Rip off. Useless. Do not touch. I'd like my money back.
