Description

This fact-filled, image-rich app is the only periodic table you need.

Ideal if you’re a student, teacher or just have an interest in the chemical sciences.

Did you know that neodymium is used in microphones? Or europium in Euro bank notes to help stop counterfeiting? These are just two of the absorbing facts in our customisable app, based on our popular and well-respected Royal Society of Chemistry Periodic Table website.

• See elements in their natural state and real-life applications.
• Check out podcasts and videos.
• Use our interactive slider to see how elements change state as temperature increases, or explore the discovery of the elements through history.
• Customise your app to see only what interests you.
• Use our simple table for quick access to data – like sorting elements in order of increasing density.

Alright, fantastic and comprehensive app! Finally! It has all of the information I've put to many years of flash cards - SAVE ONE THING: CRYSTALLINE STRUCTURE! 5 stars when I can see Magnetic & crystalline structure - is it body-centered cubic? Hexagonal? Tell me, and I will love you forever!

Mr. Soup

Could be better This free periodic table app is useful but it's a little bit buggy and unresponsive as of now. Also, the pictures used to represent the various elements are a bit unclear when compared to other periodic table apps. Thankfully the good outweighs the bad. For example, info is not locked behind a pay wall, access to podcasts and links to Wikipedia for more detailed info is thoughtful. If these problems are resolved, this app will be perfect.

Awesome! Got shown this by my chemistry teacher and it really brings all the periodic table to life! The videos are especially good, especially by the Professor dude! (Forgot his name but you'll know him when you see him!) Well worth getting for chem students!

VERY VERY nice app By the way names of the four heavy elements (ununtrium,ununpentium,ununseptium,ununoctium) are not updated beacause the new names are not permanent yet and will be updated when they are. The app says so in the description of these four elements. Rest app is amazing and any person who loves or likes chem must have this app. The best part is, you can customise it as basic, intermidiate, or advanced, so you don't have to be an expert in chemistry to understand the basic facts. Loved the app !!!

Nikil Kumar

Great app, but please update the new elements!!! I've found periodic table apps that have updated the new elements, but none of them are as user friendly as this one. So please update the 4 new elements and other new elements of the future ASAP!!! Thanks in advance.

Not updated It's good but it's not up date... According to my chem teacher atomic numbers 113, 115, 117 and 118 have different symbols... 113 is Nh, 115 is Mc, 117 is Ts and 118 is Og... Please fix this!!!! So I can rate 5 stars

Hi Nikil Kumar, your device will download the data for the new elements if you launch the app, ensure updates are allowed in the settings menu, leave it open for approx 5 mins, and then restart.

Resource hog and slow start-up It works fine off-line, although it has an option to check and update its database. Unfortunately, it cannot be moved to SDcard and start-up time is sluggish.

LG Stylo 2, MM 6.0.1. 3 R's: Reference, Refresher, Resource I wish mobile technology had been around during my college years. Would have made chemistry much easier to understand and study, in or out of the classroom. That being said, it never hurts to have a comprehensive everyday reference and educational tool at your fingertips. This one is.

Khalid Barelvi 26 September 2016

Great app Has thorough information on every element. But it hasn't included the newly discovered 4 heavy metals. Also it is quite slow

Rianna Maharaj 8 January 2017

Useful This app is always useful for school. If there were a different colour scheme it wouod be better and if it would not take such a long time to load othereise, it is helpful, useful and informative for school

matthew kuhl 29 October 2016

Well-made How anyone could complain about a completely free app on account of trivial issues is appalling. Although not the most elegant app in this category, ad-free at this quality is worthy of 4.5* reviews

myles dunlap 31 January 2017

I can see the man with the big white hair at the RS saying that this is a great app. I wish I could talk to that guy in real life.

27 March 2017

Liked it.But more info should be there and crashes every time. Just fix theseproblems and I'll give a5 star

Royal Society of Chemistry 30 March 2017

Hello. Sorry you're having problems with the app. Please could you let me know which device and operating system you're using so I can look into this?

Rudra Prasad Sahu 31 May 2017

4 stars due to the lag. I haven't checked yet if the info displayed is all correct, but the visuals are good. Liked it

Rishabh Sahu 6 December 2016

Great but scope for improvement This app can have improvements like a larger vew of the periodic table and instead of a large box for the elements selected just display name and small pictures separate panel for trends and more trends like electronic configuration , electron affinity,atomic mass .Showing groups like representative elements , bridge elements. A print button for printing tables information and photos can also be added.A magnified view of the table when viewing specific groups and periods and also a general zoom in button.

Mohammad Mahdi Razzaghi 9 February 2017

Very good, but needs to be more update and have better UI, well please update 4 new elements and add a syncnow button to get lastest data, it would be better to move side bar on left side and etc

Royal Society of Chemistry 16 February 2017

Hi Mohammad, your device will download the data for the new elements if you launch the app, ensure updates are allowed in the settings menu, leave it open for approx 5 mins, and then restart.

Ariyan Suthar 5 January 2017

This is what we need What ever u need is present in it from history to uses...from its state to another form of state, there are more lik electronic configuration and ahh cant remember...ANYWAYS AWESOME APP HELPED FOR MY PROJECT THNX TO U GUYZ!!

Nima Kavian 29 October 2016

Slow It is hanging a bit behind with the input and makes the app usage almost a pain. Though the basis is good

Nihkil Kumar 15 October 2016

Good app but Information is great really appreciable but the app is too slow to load and looks unpolished. I'll hope in the update you may fix that

Dee Olson 15 September 2016

Periodic table I don't rate often, but this is so good. I'm not an expert, so no niggles. I'll encourage people to download this app.

Bob Parish 7 March 2017

Brilliant - the best Periodic Table app I've seen. Hours of educational distraction!

Hjalmar Schacht 14 September 2016

The Best For something as seemingly simple as "just" the Periodic Table, this app is arguably the best available. It allows you to explore to some extent the magic of the Periodic Table.

lalo lalouve 10 November 2016

Glacially slow 2-3 seconds between pressing something and getting feedback, tens of seconds to complete search. Useless.

Brendan Carlquist 12 October 2016

Everything you need to know in an intuitive display! Great for use during homework, etc. It seems to take a lot of phone power, though.

Micaiah Scott 18 April 2017

Much more than just a picture of the table. Defiantly a good reference

Michael Ruark 24 October 2016

Very cool Wish I had this for my chemistry classes years ago. Lots of great info.

22 September 2016

Slow. Looks great. Has lots of information and features. But it's so SLOW. Needs optimising

Anushka Dashputra 23 December 2016

Amazing A wonderful app and has all the facts I need for studies.... But please update the heavy elements' names soon.

Royal Society of Chemistry 19 January 2017

Hi Anushka Dashputra, your device will download the data for the new elements if you launch the app, ensure updates are allowed in the settings menu, leave it open for approx 5 mins, and then restart.

Fatima Ahmed 7 October 2016

Fantastic app Media rich app for the periodic table. Audio and video links are available for each element, along with its history and background. Highly recommended.

arjun dey 30 April 2017

Amazing app...has all info for every element... Note: Please add the names of elements 113, 115, 117 and 118. IUPAC has annouced it in November 2016. The names are nihonium (Nh), moscovium (Mc), tennessine (Ts), and oganesson (Og), respectively for element 113, 115, 117, and 118.

The only one you need Like their description says, the only one you need. Accurate, detailed, and free.

Mrytyunjay Maheshwari 8 December 2016

Awesome app Loved it... The way informations are given in this app is just too good.... Well done developers....

Vikramaditya Deshpande 31 December 2016

Best App In This Category For something as simple as the periodic table, this is THE Most creative & informative

akash singh 9 March 2017

net system is very bad. ihate ,extremly hate this kind of app

Ken Percival 28 November 2016

SLOW This must be THE slowest app ever made! So slow that I often receive warnings that the application has stopped responding and do I want to wait!

Dimitris Stavropoulos 20 January 2017

Best periodic table app out there with lots of facts and information, but you still haven't updated the names of the four newest elements, which is a major turn-off, in my opinion. 5 stars when you update the app.

Royal Society of Chemistry 26 January 2017

Hi Dimitris, your device will download the data for the new elements if you launch the app, ensure updates are allowed in the settings menu, leave it open for approx 5 mins, and then restart.

ScoopDogg1867 23 September 2016

Doesn't work Freezes then goes black then crashes. Doesn't even work periodically😆

Poojyanth M 5 April 2017

It tells us fully about elements. I love this app

Fawad Ahmad 7 December 2016

Its Cool app but Plz update and add the newest details for four last elements

mohammad ali 14 April 2017

It's a very good and helpful apps. But needs more improvements on the 113,115,117&118 no. elements.
