The study of qualitative chemical analysis for students of chemistry is addressed by means of lectures as well as experimental work in the lab. However, the number of lab tests to be performed is very large and with many experimental steps. Taking advantage of the easy access to mobile devices on the part of the students, it was proposed that through a mobile application it would be easier for them to track an analytical march of cations interactively and in a guided way. The use of the application in the lectures stimulated not only collaborative work but also the use of mobile technologies for learning basic sciences. In the laboratory, this technology reduced the average time of practices and contributed to an important reduction in reagent losses in the assays and to improve the number of hits regarding problem samples.
