PHISIOS β the physics of every shot. Most sports apps show you what to do. Phisios shows you WHY it works, by letting you feel the physics behind each sport. Each sport is a different physics domain. Read a short, illustrated lesson β then test your intuition: call where the ball lands, whether the arrow recovers, how much it drops. No formulas to memorize. Just the feel of the principle, the way great athletes know it in their hands. IN THIS RELEASE β’ Basketball -> projectile motion. Why every shot is an arc. β’ Soccer -> the curve. Why a ball curves mid air after shooting. β’ Archery -> the pin gap and the archer's paradox. Why an arrow drops more than you'd guess, and why it bends through the bow yet hits dead center. β’ Formula 1 -> the energy and forces. β’ Coming soon β pool (elastic collisions) and many more! HOW IT WORKS β’ Quick, illustrated lessons β tap through, no walls of text. β’ Call the outcome β put your intuition on the line and see if you were right. β’ Climb your Sports IQ and keep a daily streak.You can earn higher IQ by answering the daily questions as well! For the curious β athletes who want to understand their craft, students who want physics to finally click, and anyone who loves a good "oh, THAT's why." No account. No ads. Works offline.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Phisios at every 5 days against APOD Pro's every 5 months. APOD Pro's advantage is device support (5 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
