Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

Whether you're identifying your first mineral or expanding an established collection, there is always something new to discover.
MINERAL REFERENCE
Explore 273 detailed mineral profiles featuring high-quality photography, physical properties, crystal systems, geological context, history and real-world uses. Browse minerals, save favourites and test your knowledge with a dedicated quiz for each one.
EARTH SCIENCE LIBRARY
Access 368 pages covering minerals, rocks, geology and Earth science. Learn how minerals and rocks form, and how geological processes shape the world around us. Content is organised into short, accessible sections designed to be read in just a few minutes.
QUIZZES AND CHALLENGES
Test yourself with more than 300 quizzes covering minerals, geology and Earth science. Earn points, build streaks and unlock additional challenge modes as you progress.

COLLECTION CATALOGUE
