Ratings and reviews

Great app ! Just need to be aware not to use in full extended screen with S8+ : you won't hit the right element. Works perfectly though in normal display, many infos, really good.

Easy and fun to use. Lots of helpful and interesting information about each element. One puzzling thing I found while researching Polonium: atomic weight given as 208.982 but isotopic composition only includes isotopes of 210 and heavier (even though the isotope with the longest Half-Life is Po-209). Just curious how thus adds up?

Definitely one of the best PTE apps. Been using it for several years, and it still hasn't let me down.
