PhET Simulations for Negative User Reviews
✓ UselessDoes not work.Version: 1.0
✓ Outdated Technology & Lack of SupportOur son’s K12 public school has been requiring he interact with your simulations as part of his science curriculum. I’m shocked that all of your simulations are still in Java, and even more egregious is that some are only supported on Windows. All we have is in old MacBook running the current MacOS and had to bend over backwards to install the Java Runtime - this is from when I was in undergrad. To run the Plate-Tectonics simulation in particular you need Windows. WHY?! So I turn to the link at the bottom of the page for the Plate-Tectonics simulation to download the iOS app instead. We paid for it, and the simulation isn’t even available! I’m just as frustrated by our Public School that they are requiring educational apps that are universally supported..Version: 1.1
✓ Missing many simulationsDidn't realize until I hastily (my fault) bought the app. Would be great to get the other simulations in this..Version: 1.1
✓ App doesn't work.Tried to open it 3 times. App crashed every time. Such a shame. The website is fabulous, but the app is not done yet..Version: 1.0
✓ CrashesUnfortunately all I can say is that I never get past the splash screen. Please fix and update..Version: 1.0
✓ App Crashes and Simulation needed unavailableI bought it but it doesn’t even have the physics simulations i need. Why is that? Plus the app keeps crashing. It’s really too bad. :(.Version: 1.2
✓ Great idea but...The app crashes before it can open an animation. Please fix.Version: 1.0
✓ CrashesEvery time I open the app, it freezes and crashes. Not helpful.Version: 1.0
✓ CrashesHaven't got it to run after several months. Disappointing..Version: 1.0
✓ Not goodThe selection of simulations is different than the selections on the website and the website seems to only play on PC. Honestly, it's a waste of money.Version: 1.1
✓ UghDidn’t have plate tectonics or the hole reason I needed it.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Mr.No sims are available as needed for physics. There aren't as many sims as for pc. One star but I want this review to be taken seriously, so 3 stars.Version: 1.1
✓ Doesn't runI've used PhET for years in my classroom. Im eager to support this app. Please mend it so I can change my review..Version: 1.0
✓ TerribleTerrible.Version: 1.2
✓ IPad Pro iOS 10.0.2 Capability?Possible prospective student of the University of Colorado, just bought the app. For some reason, the registrar of videos and tools isn't loading as depicted on the preview of the app, just the table of contents, math, physics, etc. When you can, please try to fix this. Thanks..Version: 1.0
✓ Not working ?Search produces NOTHING ! OY!.Version: 1.0
✓ Not all simulatorsIf you're familiar with the online simulations you know that they are very helpful, but this app doesn't include every one that is online..Version: 1.1
✓ Electrical engineeringI’m starting to get into engineering in high school and loved how many simulations there are, but these are way to basic. It gives you an introduction but you only have 5 min worth of material from each simulation. Example: the Build an Atom only let’s use 10 protons. You only get to learn about 10 atoms???.Version: 1.2
✓ Fails to openJust paid for the app to find out that the app crashes when ever you open it, avoid this app!.Version: 1.0
