Actual app screenshots from the current release. Version 3 features are previewed below.
WHAT’S COMING IN VERSION 3
Follow a chemical name into a structure. Follow a structure into a collection. Keep the context with you as you work.
Scan PDFs for chemical names and printed molecular structures. Review findings alongside highlighted source locations, preview recognized structures, and bring confirmed results into your library.
Recognition runs on your device. Results are yours to review before you use them.
Enter an IUPAC name and convert supported names into molecular structures directly on your Mac or iPad. Move from nomenclature to visual exploration without leaving your workspace.
Inspect molecules in interactive 2D and 3D views. Explore reaction participants, examine molecular properties and identifiers, and adjust visualization styles to bring important details into focus.
Create and modify molecular structures and reactions with the integrated chemical drawing editor. Work directly with chemical notation in a dedicated source editor when you need finer control.
Organize molecules and reactions with tags and favorites. Search by keywords, explore structural similarity, and find substructure matches. Keep your repository local or choose optional iCloud synchronization.
Open the formats you already work with. Extract individual structures from larger collections, generate identifiers, and share depictions as SVG, PNG, or PDF.

YOUR WORK. YOUR CHOICE.
Your documents don’t need a round trip to our servers.
AtomLens processes chemistry on your device, including document recognition. Keep your Managed Repository local, or enable iCloud to sync repository files and managed metadata through your Apple account.
Finder, Quick Look, and Spotlight bring chemistry into your Mac workflow. On iPad, Files integration and touch-oriented controls keep the experience native.

Version 3 is coming soon. The App Store link on this page opens the currently released version of AtomLens. The upcoming version 3 capabilities described above are a preview, and the screenshots show the current release.
No. You can keep your Managed Repository local. If you enable repository sync, iCloud handles repository files and managed metadata through your Apple account. Saving a file locally and uploading it to iCloud are separate steps; sync depends on connectivity and available storage.
Yes. AtomLens works with common molecule and reaction formats including MOL, SDF, SMILES, InChI, PDB, CML, and RXN. The format guide explains supported formats and tools in more detail.
AtomLens uses CDKSwiftNativePort, a Swift-native toolkit derived from the Chemistry Development Kit. Its chemistry processing runs locally on Mac and iPad.
