Powerful tool for the aspiring chemistry student! – Mild EleMints: Free Periodic Table Review

This little app by far is one of the most useful periodic tables I have encountered so far. Mild EleMints does a great job of collating the majority of information for each element and presents it in a neat little format. At first glance the app looks very cluttered; however, the developers have done a great job of categorizing presented data through the color scheme. It does not feel overwhelming as information per element is neatly tucked away in slide open windows, or for more info such as lattice structures you can pinch zoom on the element to view it. Along with this package, adjustable UI, the ability to highlight certain classes of elements, view multiple diagrams and graphs, and links to outside sources makes this app very useful for the student that would rather not hunt each tidbit of information. With that said, as for previous reviews made a year ago, I have not checked whether the information has been updated. I will leave that to the more well informed. However, extra information such as background (i.e. history) on the element would be nice. The recent updated to iOS 8 has made this app crash at the startup; however, I will only rate based on the product not so much its inability to start. Pros: -A wealth of information all presented in a neat little package -Clean GUI with sharp and colorful presentation -Adjustable views Cons: -Recent updated of iOS has caused this app not to start. iOS 7 users will not encounter this problem. Other comments: -Possibly include basic history of element All in all, if you're the type to want to see a visual representation of the Bohr model of an element, or if you're the high school student looking up for atomic mass this app has it all. I give Mild EleMints a solid 5 beakers out of 5.
