Materia brings the periodic table to life. Explore all 118 elements through a beautifully designed, interactive experience built for iPhone. Move beyond a traditional chart and discover the relationships, properties, and structure of the elements through multiple ways of exploring them. EXPLORE EVERY ELEMENT Browse the complete periodic table with accurate atomic numbers, symbols, categories, groups, periods, atomic masses, and carefully presented element information. THREE WAYS TO EXPLORE โ€ข Grid โ€” Browse elements in a clean, visual collection. โ€ข Table โ€” Explore the familiar periodic structure in a modern, interactive layout. โ€ข Orbit โ€” Experience elements through an immersive spatial visualization with focus, relationships, and motion. DISCOVER CONNECTIONS Explore metals, nonmetals, noble gases, elements important to life, and meaningful compositions. Select an element to bring it into focus and discover related elements around it. DESIGNED TO FEEL ALIVE Materia uses subtle motion, depth, haptics, and responsive interactions to turn scientific information into something you can explore rather than simply read. MATERIA PRO Materia includes a useful free experience with the complete element library and core exploration tools. Materia Pro is an optional one-time purchase that unlocks the premium Orbit experience and advanced interactive visualizations. No ads. No subscription required for Materia Pro.
