The use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT), especially of Digital Didactics Resources (DDR), has transformed many teaching practices, contributing to the construction of the knowledge of its students. In this sense, this research aims to investigate the perception of students of a public school in the use of the application for mobile device called FoQ1 Química in the studies of Chemistry. For this, the research presents a case study carried out with 75 students from four high school classes (two classes from the first year and two classes from the second year). The research was carried out in four (4) stages: (1) presentation of the FoQ1 Química app; (2) application of an evaluative questionnaire; (3) conducting a non-directive interview; (4) analysis of the responses to the evaluation questionnaire and the non-directive interview. The results show that the FoQ1 Química app can be an auxiliary DDR in the teaching and learning process of Chemistry, providing students with possibilities to build their knowledge in a simple and objective way. Although some students presented difficulties in the contents of Chemistry, the use of the FoQ1 Química app can contribute to the understanding of these contents. The development of applications in order to help in the teaching of Chemistry is shown as a prominent alternative, with the teacher as its main developer and students as the main users.
