Pocket Notes – GCSE Chemistry

Available only on Apple devices

Pocket Notes – GCSE Science is an app spefically target for GCSE level students(funnily enough) for revision purposes only. It provides notes on all areas of the GCSE Chemistry, Physics and Biology curriculum but we are just going to review the chemistry bits.

SCART notes:
The level of content provided by this app is just enough. Separate explanations could be provided to cater for students who require a different way to look at fundamental ideas.
In saying this, the app is extremely useful for its intended purpose – revision for GCSE Chemistry students. The notes are very clearly laid out in a logical way and are colourful/easy to read.
However, the app is not available to android users which poses a bit of an accessibility problem, especially with so much encouragement for teachers/students to switch to digital learning.

SCART recommendation:
GCSE Chemistry students 100% need to check this app out around revision time. Students who miss lessons due to sickness etc would really benefit from using this app. Could also be useful to recommend to students of all curriculums upon approval by teachers.

SCART score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐


Lots of love,
SCART xx

Our Final Thoughts

Hello again SCARTies, for the last time ever from the OG founders😭😭 Over the last four weeks, we have managed to review a wide range of chemistry apps from addicting chemistry games to advanced chemical structure building apps – allowing us to build a solid rapport of the apps that are available on each software platform. It has been an enjoyable process witnessing over 650 of you joining the gang   and visiting the SCART blog, and nursing our baby Instagram page to over 50 followers - something we are very proud of considering our short time-frame. Generally from the apps we have reviewed we can say that chemistry content in all apps is generally really informative and accurate. With such a large number of apps available, we expected to see a lot of well functioning apps with aesthetic interface but this actually hasn't been the case. For this reason the apps we have reviewed tends to be the ones that we've been able to use with little difficulty. There are so many ga...
