Useful only as a narrow the field tool. Do not take results as gospel. Also, let the different terms for non-metallic lustres enter your life! Vitreous, silky, adamantine are far more useful!

To limited to be of any real use. Which is a shame considering android users have no real mineral app worth its salt. This app has potential but 29 minerals is just no where near enough.

This contains a very limited variety of minerals. Virtually useless if rock hounding or trying to identify stones found in the field.

As cited in previous comments, many specific errors...here's another...use of sphalerite "jewelry" !...how about zinc production and galvanizing. App to be trusted only in a very limited way.

So..., fun stuff but statements like dolomite is pink is totally WRONG! Dolomite CAN be pink but not always. There are a number of these inconsistencies. If you are a serious mineralogist or seriously interested in the subject visit the MinDat. - Carl Harris
