SCART notes: The app is clean, simple and laid out well. It includes a short tutorial the first time you open the app explaining how to use all of the features. The app looks and feels similar to ChemDraw (a popular molecule editor used by chemists) and shares many useful features such as the clean-up structure feature and a feature to add pre-made molecules. The app advertises that it has a cloud function along with a desktop program so you can edit molecules on your mobile device and view them on your desktop and vice versa. However, we were not able to create a cloud account during the time of testing. This is a problem as the only way to use the created molecules is to email yourself the file and open it in their desktop program (which is in Chinese and hard to use). From here you can copy and paste it into Word, PowerPoint etc. or export it into another molecule editor like ChemDraw for further editing.  


SCART recommendation: Overall this app is great for drawing chemical molecules and reactions and could be used by chemists and chemistry students of all levels and fields. However, the process of transferring structures from the app is challenging and at the moment limits its functionality.


SCART score:

Lots of Love

The content caters to a really wide range of education levels which makes the target audience of the app a little unclear. Furthermore, because this version is free, the amount of content is very limited. The app performs very well on the iOS
