ptable.com when I was taking chemistry, Mathematica for making messy simplifications easier, a solid scientific calculator application on my phone that can do complex numbers and dec/hex/oct conversion (the windows programming calculator is honestly the best for this but the one on my phone is decen...

If your intent is to gameify physics learning your best bet is to get someone close to you to give you candy and stickers for completed problem sets. ... Terrible for physics beyond the basics. ... They have some great math courses, but they only really have introductory classical mechanics as a rea...

Capture your thoughts - This is the official subreddit for the app Notability. ... A place for physics students of any level to discuss the intricate profoundness of the universe.

Water physics on an iOS device is a pipe dream (pun intended). Fluid simulation is one of the most computationally demanding tasks you can do, and you're not finding that sort of power in a mobile device of any type. In any case I've never heard of a game that simulates bridges or dams, an...

It’s pretty handy because you can just generate the exact simulation you need instead of digging through old libraries.If you want something more "curriculum" style with quizzes, check out Gizmos, though it’s paid. For something free with great visuals, CK-12 has some solid physics interac...

I'm not sure about specific software for this, but http://physion.net/ looks interesting; apparently it supports building custom models (with specific initial conditions) using Javascript. Trying to write your own software to model basic mechanics situations could be a very cool endeavor; one c...

Well, no dedicated application, but many of the courses are offered as videos embedded in Web pages, so in principle you could use an Android-hosted browser. I just took a longer look, and many of the courses are presented in PDF form instead of video, so that also works. So unless the Android devic...

Crayon Physics Deluxe is pretty good thanks!

Motion Yes No - Physics - One of the hardest things for phsyics students is keeping a clear distinction between velocity and acceleration. This app helps by putting a moving object in front of them and asking, 'is there velocity?", "is there acceleration?", "is the velocity ...

Sometimes it's easier for me to make an app once rather than make 100 versions of a diagram. Stick Figure - Physics - I use a lot of dynamic stick figures to illustrate a motion I am describing in writing. semi detailed stick figures with two-segment arms and legs can really help demonstrate wh...

You can change settings to see how the simulation is affected and see the changes graphically as well. We believe the app will be best for lab experiments maybe alongside real life data.

This Tracker app is a video analysis software that allows you to do frame-by-frame analysis of moving objects. This is useful if you want to analyse the motion of a relatively fast object (usually the Mechanics topic of Physics). For example, I did my Physics EE on measuring the launch velocity and ...

I haven't ever really used the vernier stuff, but Pasco Smart Carts are really handy and I cam do a lot of my physics curriculum using them. In the short term, maybe you could use slo-mo cameras on phones to record motion in front of a grid/graph paper and analyze that ... Phyphox now has motio...
