Excellent App Brilliant. A very intuitive interface. I still haven't figured out how Android manages files and images, so I really don't know how to get at the saved pictures! I guess I have to share them to Picasa, or something. From what I have seen, the stored fractal contains the parameter information, so I can go back to the same spot and magnification, and explore it on my desktop. This program is very much in the mathematical tradition of FractInt, from Stone Soup, though I'm not sure whether it uses an integer algorithm. A porting of FractInt to Windows could do a lot worse than use the interface of this one. (Actually, their Windows app is a cruder application on the lines of Fractals.)

Decent I've been using this app for a while, and it outputs acceptable renders; however, it can be further improved. I do suggest adding an option where we could choose our own color scheme; if not at least add a rainbow one (I call such renders "acidulous" and I'm a fan of such color schemes). After a certain iteration depth and zoom level, it also starts glitching and only displays a series of lines, which isn't a fault of my phone, as I've used other Mandelbrot generator programs where I can go deeper. I do think the idea of adding Julia Set options is great. If only someone made a 3D renderer, that'd be awesome. Highly impractical and inefficient, but awesome.
★★☆☆☆
Unfortunate Flaws Although the Fractals app has an excellent concept, the overall execution seems to be flawed. Upon zooming in to see other fractal shapes, the image becomes distorted and stretched quite far. This creates the illusion of horizontal lines and nothing of relation to a true fractal. Alongside, the imagery is pixelated and not so easy on the eyes. I appreciate the concept, however, there are major critical errors that I just cannot get passed.
★★☆☆☆
This app is good, but it is bad when I go closer and closer to zooming.
★★☆☆☆
Meh This app only generates the Mandelbrot set. Needs Over 9000 Improvements.
