Physics++ is the perfect companion for physics students and students of other science classes. Physics++ is a collection of physics formulas. The more than 120 formulas cover the topics mechanics, relativity, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and electrodynamics. In addition there is a small number of primitives and a section with often used units. Physics constants are also included. With the search function formulas can now be found even faster. Most formulas have a calculator attached to them. So you can easily calculate values in exercises. In future update the number of formulas and constants will be increased.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Formula MAX at 4.8 against Physics++'s 3.9. Formula MAX also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 68%) and ratings volume (52 vs 8). Physics++'s advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 11 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
