Chemistry Keyboard app for iPhone and iPad
The Chemistry Keyboard is a specialized Keyboard Extension for anyone who needs to enter chemical formulae. Ever need to input Hg²⁺+2 I⁻ on your phone and cant figure out how to get those nice superscript or subscript 2s. Or proper arrow glyphs?
Well, your wait is over.
Quickly generate
superscripts: ⁰ ¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵ ⁶ ⁷ ⁸ ⁹ ⁽ ⁾ ⁺ ⁻,
subscripts: ₀ ₁ ₂ ₃ ₄ ₅ ₆ ₇ ₈ ₉ ₍ ₎ ₊ ₋,
and arrows.
lowercase Greek characters available in landscape mode.
and other chemistry related Unicode characters.
The app itself demonstrates the keyboards use by allowing text entry and looking up data from Wikipedia.
Unlike many keyboard extensions, this keyboard does not require network access. Its entirely self contained.

Great app for taking notes
This app helped me save a lot of time during science lectures. Great app.
Fantastic keyboard for a Chemist!
What an incredible idea—a keyboard for chemists! In the past Ive relied upon creating text expansion snippets to change formulas like H2O to H₂O, and -> to →, but this approach is much better. I can type chemical equations on the fly now, and in less time than it would take on my iMac. Love this keyboard!
Highly recommended keyboard for anyone who wants to write chemical formulas and equations on their iOS devices.
Nice update in 1.0.1 allowing for Greek letter entry. Much easier than switching over to the Greek keyboard (which is what I was doing before).
I’ve used this a number of times when making exam solutions for my Chemistry students. Being able to “type” chemical equations on my iPad has actually allowed me to get the job done faster than when I’m on my iMac. Imagine that!
Thanks. @SSU_Science
Almost perfect!
I absolutely love this keyboard. I use chemical equations pretty often and its great to finally be able to do so on my iPad.
That being said, it seems to be missing several chemical symbols. It would be great if down the line they included more, or all, of the periodic table so I dont have to switch over keyboards just to type things like Sb for Antimony.
Great tool
This is a great keyboard for typing up scientific papers and other science related things. Once you get used it the keyboard is really effective at helping you type chemical equations and sub/super scripts.

I cant get this keyboard to work with any of my apps. Is it exclusive to Microsoft?
