3DPhyS offers a fun way to learn physics using Physics Simulator! Localized the home scene into Japanese, English, Chinese, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Russian, Indonesian, Arabic, and Korean! Some parts are still in Japanese, but you can still simulate the game even if you do not understand Japanese! The following courses of experiments are available Free Fall Vertical projection Horizontal projection Oblique projection Monkey Hunting Bounce coefficient Object sliding on a slope Buoyancy force Frictional force Momentum conservation law for two-object collision (bounce coefficient) Momentum conservation law for splitting Circular motion Circular motion under gravity Single swing of pendulum Universal gravitation In each experiment, you can freely change parameters such as initial velocity and bounce coefficient! Please use this app to improve your performance! If you have any comments or typos, please feel free to contact us.

About

HIGLab

Designing for the Apple ecosystem requires more than just knowing the rules; it requires understanding how native components feel, react, and scale. Welcome to the ultimate interactive companion for Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines (HIG). Whether you are a seasoned iOS developer, a UI/UX designer, or just starting your Swift journey, this app bridges the gap between theory and execution. Static documentation can only teach you so much. We transformed the HIG into a living, breathing playground. Tweak parameters, test dynamic typography, experiment with dark mode, and see how native components behave in real-time. Build your intuition for Apple's design language by getting hands-on with the very building blocks of iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. Core Features • Interactive Playgrounds: Manipulate native sliders, toggles, buttons, and pickers to see exactly how they respond to user input and accessibility settings. • HIG Cheatsheets: Quickly access beautifully summarized rules, best practices, and "do's and don'ts" directly from Apple's official documentation. • Typography & Color Labs: Test system colors, semantic materials, and dynamic type scales to ensure your app looks perfect in both Light and Dark modes. • Component Gallery: Browse a comprehensive library of native UI elements, complete with code snippets to instantly implement them in your Xcode projects. • Accessibility Preview: See your designs through the lens of your users by toggling VoiceOver outlines, increased contrast, and larger text sizes on the fly.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: HIGLab at none against 3DPhyS's shown. 3DPhyS's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
