An Immersive Tree-Drawing App for Curious Minds
BEAUTIFUL GEOMETRIC TREES AT THE TOUCH OF YOUR FINGER
Create an infinite number of fractal-like trees with a few simple gestures. Surprise yourself and friends with the variety and complexity of the patterns you discover just by changing the number, angle, and the common ratio of your tree's branches. It's math and it's art - and it's totally captivating.
• Touch the screen to make your tree grow and change.
• Watch your tree morph in real time.
• Increase the number of branches for fuller trees.
• Lengthen or shorten the branches to make the canopy change shape.
• Spread the branches up to 359 degrees for kaleidoscopic patterns.

• Explore the many levels of this geometric landscape on your iPod, iPhone, or iPad!

• Create an arboretum of amazing trees that you can play with over and over.
• Save trees you like to your photo album.

Exquisite Beauty
by Frogzen
"Extraordinary beautiful line art is generated with finger control, but you need a delicate touch. Read the help page, It's short and well written.
There are limitless variations possible, but you can't rush through them. This app requires finesse."
a wonder(ful) bit of Apple Math/Geometry whimsy.
by Faddah Steve Y Wolf
"this sort of app is what the original Apple Macintosh and now the iOS are all about and should continue to be all about. it's simple in its concept and execution, and yet produces smiles and delight with the user interaction with the screen. at the same time, it encourages further investigation of the production of such geometric shapes and the math/science behind it. it does exactly what you'd hope it would do, while making you smile. what more could a user ask from a simple app?"
A UNIVERSAL APP
Geom-e-Tree runs on the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad. While the iPad gives the best experience because of its display size, Geom-e-Tree also works fine on iPhone 3GS or newer, and iPod Touch 3rd Generation or newer. Full-sized tree images can be saved or sent from any device. Also, themes can be chosen that work well on any age device.
YouTube Animations
See "Geom-e-Tree 101" a 40-second animation, linked to from our website. Also on YouTube: our 5 minute live demonstration, "Geom-e-Tree in Action".
What's New in Version 1.2
We've added rainbow and "psychedelic" themes, some wild black and white themes (Magpie and Op Art), as well as a few monochromatic themes (India Ink and Pop Sticks). The new Themes tab displays all the themes and allows you to choose one for the current Tree. The Arboreturm remembers the themes of newly added trees. Geom-e-Tree also includes all the themes from our new version of Geom-e-Twee!
Customer Reviews
Awesome!
This is an amazing app! Surprising, beautiful, and engaging for all ages. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Neat
But it lacks diversity. Needs ability to change the color scheme. Needs ability to add/change number of iterations. Needs more formulas, one is fun but gets tiresome very quickly. 3 star app +1 for originality.
