Soap Lye Calculator for Android
Pretty nice, can confuse a beginner though with all those lye options. I personally would like to see an option to take a picture of that batch/bar and set a reminder of when the cure process is done! If you add that, it's then 5☆☆☆☆☆
I would like to see the ability to change batch size, and switch between percent/oz/gram back and forth, this will help tremendously when sizing up or down a batch.
I agree with others re: uploading pictures and changing amounts. What I'd really like is a seperate section for *notes*. Having all my scent blend recipes in one place would be helpful.
Not for beginners
But would be better with the capability to edit batch size when formulating using percentages. Still, the best free calc I have come across.
I love this app. I had previously had a problem emailing my recipes, but have had a fun and very positive experience working with Rich Java Labs to create a solution. I run every recipe through this app and really like having backups of my recipes.

If you had a yield button that allowed for changing the amount all at once. Wow....got busy on the CVS/HTML combo! Love it. Email works now....THANK YOU!
This app is good, let's make it perfect: 1. An exit button, 2. Batch proportion change options (check out the app "My Recipes"), 3. explanations of acids, and 4. hardness & softness ranges. Thank you!
I need something that I can use decimals

If you had a yield button that allowed for changing the amount all at once. If the distracting background could have the option of being changed or cleared. And if the send to email button ACTUALLY worked.
Its so detailed I can't complain the options are easy and friendly. The one and only thing I would love to see on this is a option to add a picture, since when I pull the recipe I am once again reminded how I swirled the decor of the soap in that recipe. This would make it the perfect app for .either way its great.
I see you have option for soy and/or palm shortening, but no option for just plain vegetable shortening / Crisco. Can you add it to your list of oils please :-)
Very good app and the developer is VERY friendly and helpful.:)
The best app for soap making
This is by far the best soap app I've seen. Everything is customizable to fit my needs. So much that I can change the KOH purity percentage to match that of the Summer Bee Meadow website's KOH output. This is scary accurate in comparison to Soap Calc, without any changes to KOH purity. Good job!
Finally a handy app for lye calculations and recipe saving! Thank you! Worth every penny!
Love this app. Some really nice features like the fact that it saves your recipes AND sends them to your chosen email! The facebook page is extremely informative and helpful, queries are dealt with quickly and efficiently. Life on the bus will never be the same again.....

This app is full of features that the other few apps don't include. The list of oils is wonderful. The option to make bar soap, liquid soap or a soap containing both lyes makes it my go to when I am out and about. Being able to compare properties of your creation saves me a lot of time. Plus the added benefit of sending your formulation by e-mail to yourself I love, too.
Thanks to my friend Bonnie for reccomending me this useful and excellent app
A much more comprehensive calculator than SoapCalc and a must for soapmakers. So handy to have right on your phone too! Love it!
Easy to use and nice design. The Cleansing Factor property makes it easy to compare soaps quickly. I haven't seen this in other soaping apps. Keeping my email in Settings is a nice feature too - it means I don't need to type in my email address when I want to export a soap recipe.
