User reviews

Zombie app that barely works

App obviously has not been updated in years, and most of the functionality such as graphs doesn’t work at all.

Useful tool

Not perfect but very useful. Exports a .CSV file via email but also allows you to view graphed data in the app itself. Recommended.

Acceleration App

3.5
Needs to store and retrieve data.

No units.....

Acceleration-speed-distance axis hasn't any unit.

Nice

The best of all the ones I've tried, primarily due to the ability to email the log (and with all 3 axis values). Nice options for viewing results, eg zoom in using start and end points.

One feature that would be really valuable, especially for paragliding, would be the ability to keep recording whilst the screen is blanked/locked (more battery life). This would make it a winner.

FAQ

What is Mobile Science used for?

Mobile Science records, graphs, and emails accelerometer measurements from your device. It's useful for measuring acceleration, velocity, and distance resulting from motion along a single axis.

Can I record a lot of data with Mobile Science?

Yes, you can record up to 120K unfiltered measurements at a rate of 1 to 100 samples per second. The data can be graphed while it is being recorded.

How does the calibration feature in Mobile Science work?

The calibration feature toggles zeroing of X, Y, and Z axis values to ignore global acceleration effects. It uses the initial second of measurements to determine an average, which is then subtracted from subsequent measures.
