Extremely Useful but buggy

3.5 Stars

This app is extremely useful for students. It has all the features i could be looking for. The main drawback is the its buggy (on MacOS and iOS). The zoom feature is weird and the edit panel on iOS is partially off the screen. I wish you could set a canvas size so the zoom feature would actually work. These bugs kind of make it hard to use at time. It they were fixed, things would be so much better.

Feature Request:
- show lone pairs as individual dots rather than lines
- ability to increase length of bond line
- improve quality of exported images
