Wolfram General Chemistry Course Assistant App Reviews

Shame on me. I bought a multivariable app from this "company" (?). It didnt work. However, I still tried this other one. Both do not work. Amazing how they could manage to keep their business "running". Sorry, but Im not a native speaker of English. I demand refund!

Does not have quality comparable with WolframAlpha. I ended up abandoning the application.

Unnecessary. Just use the Wolfram Alpha App.... There u get exactly the same results

Everything in this app you can just Google. There is no chemistry theory in this app. There are no examples. There are no questions. There are no definitions. All this app seems to offer is properties of specific and narrowly selected elements and compounds, and empirical data about some of the reactive and bonding between them. Nothing in this app will help you understand any of the general principles of Chemistry.

Where is history of equations you made ? Its a big minus

Scale. Dear developers, your app offers a range of very useful functions, but it isnt optimised for iPhone 6 display. Please, make an update!

Its completely useless you get the same thing of wolfram alpha app

Simple calculations dont even work like plugging in numbers for Boyles Law. Getting a refund!

But it may do everything else ... looks as if this will be an essential addition to a students collection of tools to master chemistry.

If you intend to use this tool as a practical assistant when solving chemical problems you may be disappointed that you cant use it at your exam! Unless you have internet there, that is. At least you should be aware that all utility of this app depends on connecting to wolframs servers.

This is app is not for helping you learn chemistry, so it wont really help if you dont already know how to approach the solution. Its more like a fancy chemistry calculator. As with math, a calculator does no good if you dont know how to set up the solution. Plus it requires a constant data connection which is a significant drawback.

Not what I thought it was going to be. It does not have quizzes or teach you how to do the problems, it just does them for you. Since I cant use my iPad during a test I found this to be waste of $5.

This app really does not assist in any way. Chemistry is a pretty complex subject; there is little application for lewis dot structures or Chemical formulas. I wasted my money. This is surprising since the main Wolfram app is so useful.

Cannot get this app to work on either my iphone or my ipad. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling BOTH. There is no support that I can find for this app on their website. I wouldnt be as upset if they would only support their product.

This is a clever app designed by folks who have not taught chemistry. It does have a periodic table tucked away if you want to balance an equation. Probably most useful in lab report writing. Maybe too much to expect an app to teach strategies for solving chem problems. Serious disadvantage that you need to connect to the Wolfram server - Wolfram should know there are some places cell phones or tablet computers.

Since its just a glorified reference material it would be nice if there was a button for a full screen periodic table on the home screen.

Not worth the money at all, wont give you names of compounds or alkaloids, even some basic salts, it will not convert to mm, total waste of money and memory.

I suspect the negative reviews are from people trying to take short cuts, i found this to be a very useful program, however you need to have basic understanding of chemistry to use it. I think it was well worth the money. I use to check my college chem homework. Once again it is NOT for short cuts. I need to understand what it is you are doing, and this programs allows you to check it. Kudos Wolfram

Its pretty good but its not that great for finding the products of a reaction especially redox reactions

This is the best app for your chemistry class !!!!
