Description

Did you know that you are carrying a 3D magnetometer? That you can use your phone as a pendulum to measure earth's local gravitational acceleration? That you can turn your phone into a sonar?

phyphox gives you access to the sensors of your phone either directly or through ready-to-play experiments which analyze your data and let you export raw data along with the results for further analysis. You can even define your own experiments on phyphox.org and share them with colleagues, students and friends.

Selected Features:
- A selection of pre-defined experiments. Just press play to start.
- Export your data to a range of widely used formats
- Remote-control your experiment through a web interface from any PC on the same network as your phone. No need to install anything on those PCs - all you need is a modern web browser.
- Define your own experiments by selecting sensor inputs, defining analysis steps and creating views as an interface using our web-editor (http://phyphox.org/editor). The analysis can consists of just adding two values or using advanced methods like Fourier transforms and crosscorrelation. We offer a whole toolbox of analysis functions.

Sensors supported:
- Accelerometer
- Magnetometer
- Gyroscope
- Light intensity
- Pressure
- Microphone
- Proximity
- GPS
*some sensors are not present on every phone.

Export formats
- CSV (Comma separated values)
- CSV (Tab-separated values)
- Excel
(if you need other formats, please let us know)


This app has been developed at the 2nd Institute of Physics A at the RWTH Aachen University.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

3 ★Add wakelock support. I want to record for an hour and not drain the battery with screen on. Right now it stopa recording when putting to sleep. Also real clock time is missing from csv exports.
5 ★A very well made app. Really insightfull and extremely data driven. Big thumbs up to the data export feature.
5 ★A great physics thing. The problem is that, I haven't figured out how to utilise all of them. Thank you for the frequency generator especially
5 ★this app is very good for exploring your sensor functioning on your phone as well as for doing experiments using that information I highly recommend it and there are no ads or any kind of spyware on this
5 ★This is Such a Cool App. Huge Thanks to the Creative Crew. Measuring Shockwave from 2 blocks away of overloaded high impact Oil Tanker Trains rolling by,, simply laying phone on bed, and saves to file is so slick. Cheers
3 ★Hi, It is good, I would say. In the location(GPS) section, instead of " height" you should write " Altitude"
1 ★App hijacks extension settings without warning or ability to disable. I had other apps set, or never set a default, but this app decided i wanted to see its fail log for everything. Why does an app like this need to take over opening zip and py files? Yeah, I don't know either.
5 ★This is a very cool app. I didn't know the phone I have could sense when I squeeze it. A lot of great and useful tools that work good.
4 ★..available sensors & data. allows different ways to organize & use data. inspires different uses, views of phone sensors (or lack of) hardware
5 ★Great app. All Physics teacher should use it particularly if they don't have a lab. Thank you very much for this work.
5 ★Pleasr add continiusly multi section,so all the sensor can be locally monitored because its only works with single selection and not work when im go to home screen
4 ★v good app but lil bit slow in deleteing and exporting data.. one have to email each data for exporting rather than collectively transfer at a time
