Physics Lab is all-in-one Sensor app which let you know physical entities around you like acceleration, magnetic fields, light intensity, sound decibel and much more... Physics Lab measures physical parameters by using your device sensors which typical device contain bunch of those sensors! Application give output in high precision with short intervals based on your sensor's capabilities. In Physics Lab, you can observe physical data in coordinates (X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis) or in scalar magnitude. If you want, you can export sensor data into Excel by one click! Using export to excel feature you can obtain statistical information about your measurement. Physical quantities that can be measured Physics Lab: * Accelerometer: Measuring acceleration around your device. Output in m/s2 for x, y and z axes. Also, you can eliminate gravity from your measurements by one click and see real acceleration. * Magnetometer: Measuring magnetic field around your device. Output in µT for x, y and z axes. * Gyroscope: Measure angular inclination in x, y and z axes. Output in degree (°) * Luxmeter: COMING SOON * Barometer: Measure atmospheric pressure. Output in bar. * Noisemeter: Measure loudness around you. Output in dB. If you like our application, you can give us 5 stars.

What is that? Point your camera and find out in seconds. SnapID identifies anything you can photograph — a rock on a hiking trail, a coin in a drawer, a bug on the wall, a plant in a friend's window, a building you walked past — and gives you a clear name plus a detailed description covering material, color, shape and key features. One app instead of seven. Most identifier apps do one thing: rocks, or birds, or plants. SnapID handles whatever you point it at. WHAT YOU CAN IDENTIFY • Rocks, minerals, crystals, gemstones and fossils • Coins, stamps and collectibles • Bugs, insects and spiders • Plants, flowers, trees, leaves and mushrooms • Birds and animals, including dog breeds • Landmarks, buildings and monuments • Products, gadgets, tools and everyday household objects HOW IT WORKS 1. Open SnapID and point your camera at whatever caught your eye 2. Frame the subject so the AI knows exactly what to look at 3. Get an instant identification with a full description 4. Every scan saves to your history automatically, so you can revisit it later WHY PEOPLE USE SNAPID • Rich descriptions, not just a one-word label • Works on anything you can point a camera at, indoors or outdoors • Your whole scan history in one place • Fast enough to use while you are still standing there PREMIUM SnapID Premium removes the daily scan limit and unlocks full AI descriptions for every scan. Choose the plan that suits you — weekly or annual. • Unlimited scans every day • Full AI-powered descriptions and details • No daily limits interrupting you SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS SnapID offers auto-renewable subscriptions. Payment is charged to your App Store account at confirmation. Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
