Science App Review (Molecules)

The app I reviewed is called Molecules, and it’s free on the iOS app store.  I found this app thorough and informative, and I will definitely use it again.  In this app, you can discover and explore molecules.  You can move them around manually, or at the touch of a button, you can make it spin slowly, to get the full effect.  There are a few minor improvements that can be made, though.  It’s only available for iOS devices, such as iPods, iPads and iPhones, but it’s not available on Android, MacBooks, or Windows devices.  It’s easy to tell that the app was not designed for newer version Apple devices, because it doesn’t properly fit the screen.

The black borders show that the app does not fit properly into the screen.

But on the brighter side, it’s very informative, easy and fun to use.  I would suggest this app to people who are struggling with science, and even people who are doing well, just to boost up their mark, or do further research on molecules.  Also, you can see information about the molecule, such as the number of atoms.

In conclusion, this app is very interesting and educational.  Although it needs some minor improvements, it’s still easy and fun to use.  I would strongly suggest that you download it, because I very much enjoyed using it.
