Review summary

Users appreciate ChipRef as a handy and quick reference app, praising its usefulness and ease of avoiding external searches for chip pinouts. However, multiple reviews highlight its limited database with many chips missing, poor visualization of chip pins particularly on Android 10, and inadequate definitions of inputs/outputs. Requests for inclusion of popular chips like 8051 and Atmega328 are common.

Users find it excellent and among the best apps on the Play Store

Cons

Lacks many chips and has a small database
Poor display or missing information for chip pins, especially on newer Android versions
Inputs and outputs on chips are poorly defined or presented
Missing popular chip references like 8051 and Atmega328
