About this app

FizziQ is an innovative mobile application designed to turn your smartphone into a comprehensive scientific laboratory. By leveraging the capabilities of the smartphone's built-in sensors, FizziQ provides a platform for collecting, visualizing, recording, and exporting data in .csv or pdf formats.

One of its unique features is the notebook function, which serves as a digital space for users to gather and analyze data methodically. This feature is enhanced by the ability to include text and images, adding depth and context to the data collected.

The application goes a step further, incorporating unique tools that facilitate a wide range of scientific experiments. These include a sound synthesizer, a dual recording function, triggers, and a sampler. These tools significantly expand the experimental possibilities, allowing users to engage more fully with the scientific process.

FizziQ is aligned with the objectives of STEM education. It's a bridge that connects theory with practical learning. Visit our website www.fizziq.org to find a wealth of resources for educators, including detailed lesson plans that cater to diverse areas of STEM, from physics and technology to chemistry, and earth and life sciences. All resources can be integrated directly in FizziQ using a QR code.

Ratings and reviews

I'll raise my review to a 5 if I can just get one feature. Under motion analysis, a new tool simply called video analysis. It loads a video just like video motion analysis does, but there is no tracking tools at all. Just a play button and a left and right button that will advance one frame forward or backward, along with the frame time to three decimal places. This is because I do video analysis of things that aren't moving sometimes. Like the reading on a voltmeter as a capacitor discharges.

Excellent, you can use it in the classroom (no ads, no internet connection needed) with your students and, using the mobile technology (smartphones, tables), conduct amazing science experiments. Measure, take notes, screenshots, record and even connect to other devices like micro:bit!!! Bravo!!!

App that helped me learning and understand much more about my phone, its gear, how to conduct and assess the mesures, and eventually greatly help me understand physical phenomenon that were still a little bit obscure to me! I recommend warmly!

What's new

In the latest update of FizziQ, we have enhanced the spreadsheet functionalities, introduced automatic recording for external sensors, and expanded language support to include Arabic, Romanian, and Turkish.
