About this app

Master the Elements with Portable Elements — the periodic table for your phone, tablet, and Wear OS smartwatch.

Whether you're a chemistry student cramming for an exam, a teacher in the lab, or a science enthusiast who just loves how the universe is put together, Portable Elements brings all 118 chemical elements to wherever you are. Built natively for Android with Jetpack Compose, it's fast, beautiful, and fully offline.

ON YOUR PHONE & TABLET
A modern, dark-themed periodic table reference designed for everyday use:
⚛ Search any element by name, symbol, or atomic number — results appear as you type
⚛ Tap any element to see a rich detail view with sectioned data: identity, atomic properties, physical state, and discovery history
⚛ Curated 50-word summaries for every element — real facts, real history, written for humans
⚛ Complete data: atomic mass, electron configuration with proper superscripts, oxidation states, electronegativity, atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, melting and boiling points, density, and more
⚛ Interactive periodic table grid in landscape — pinch to zoom, drag to pan, tap any tile to learn more
⚛ Optimized for both phones and tablets, with layouts that adapt to your screen
⚛ CPK-colored element categories make it easy to scan the table at a glance

🎮 Test your knowledge with the "Find It on the Table" minigame: 20 timed questions, points for speed, and personal best tracking. Race against the clock to identify elements by name, with five performance tiers from "Keep Practicing" all the way to "Periodic Master".

DATA & SOURCES
Element property data is sourced from the PubChem database, maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Curated summaries are written by the Hanswatch Studio team.
