WebMO App

The WebMO app is free for iOS and Android devices.

Using the WebMO app, molecules can be drawn using its 3-D editor or imported from external databases. Molecular mechanics, extended Huckel, electrostatic, and symmetry calculations can be performed locally. Molecular property lookup is provided through informational, safety, and spectral databases (PubChem, ChemSpider, NIST WebBook, Aldrich, SDBS, NMRShiftDB). High-level computational chemistry jobs can also be submitted to a WebMO server and viewed from your phone, tablet, or computer.

Install the WebMO app on your smart device today from either the Apple App Store or Android Play Store!

WebMO in the Cloud

WebMO can be installed and run in the Cloud for as little as $1/day! Furthermore, one doesn't pay for a cloud instance when it is not running. This makes WebMO in the Cloud ideal for instructional use, e.g., for a computational chemistry lab that might run for only 2 weeks each year.

WebMO provides instructions and automated installation scripts for Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services

WebMO on Windows

The traditional installation of WebMO Basic/Pro on Windows as a native process will be deprecated in WebMO 21. Starting with WebMO 20, Windows is being supported through the Windows Subsystem for Linux (part of Windows 10). This allows for support of WebMO Basic/Pro/Enterprise, a much wider choice of computational engines, and no need to install third-party Perl and Apache within Windows.

See the new instructions for installing WebMO using Windows Subsystem for Linux.
