Basic, but buggy and with limits – iCircuit Review

Moving components around results in crazy wiring that takes lots of effort to clean up, often in a loop somewhere stopping the simulator. It also sometimes ceases to be able to delete things as the context options don't show up until you restart it. It also has problems for complex components, like a 555 timer, where by default it hides the ground, as it seems to crash if you connect the ground pin to ground. Lastly, many basic components are hard limited to certain ranges, for example the diode. To represent a component that is not in the system, I need arbitrary voltage control on the diode. But maxing out at 25 limits you and it crashes if you chain diodes. As others mention, it lacks some basic compound components too, like a full bridge rectifier. Don't expect to prototype anything more than basic concepts with this.
