As the title suggests, this is a mobile version of the Interactive Knife Steel chart, for the iOS based devices. Detailed information on its use is in the application
help file. Given the size constraints of the small device, the layout is different compared to the table layout based user interface in the online chart. Functionality mainly is
the same, but there still are differences. Mobile chart is functional without active internet connection. Links to web pages from the steel notes will not work without connection
to the internet, however steel compositions, name references, notes and internal links go other alloys are available offline. Usually, the application database is a snapshot of the
online database close to the release date. Updates for the steel data can be downloaded from the central database automaticaly, keeping your phone database always up to date.
Application requires iOS 9.0 or higher.
