Morphon
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sixty-three simulations from real physics, chemistry, and mathematics — running entirely on your device's GPU. Touch them. Pinch into a Mandelbrot set. Inject a vortex. Drag a magnet and watch a fractal basin re-paint. Drop pebbles into a pool and watch the waves bounce off the walls. Nothing is pre-recorded; everything you see is computed from the underlying equations as you watch. WHAT'S INSIDE • Fractals — Mandelbrot, Julia, Burning Ship, Newton, IFS chaos game, and ten construction fractals (Koch snowflake, Hilbert curve, Apollonian gasket, and more) that build up one iteration per second • Cellular Automata — Conway's Game of Life, Lenia, Brian's Brain, Forest Fire, neural CA • Reaction-Diffusion — Gray-Scott, Belousov-Zhabotinsky, Turing morphogenesis (square + hex lattice) • Fluid Dynamics — incompressible Stable Fluids, shallow water, Kelvin-Helmholtz instability with optional vortex shedding past a cylinder, non-Newtonian oobleck • Wave Phenomena — Chladni plates, Faraday waves, cymatics, animated underwater caustics • Chaos — Lorenz / Rössler / Halvorsen attractors, magnetic-pendulum fractal basins, Hénon-Heiles • Phase Transitions — Ising, XY-model, Potts, Kuramoto oscillators, percolation, bubble foam coarsening • Field & Flow — Perlin noise, curl-noise, flow fields, paint-your-own velocity fields • Growth — crystal nucleation, L-systems, real DBM Lichtenberg lightning, differential growth • Collective Behaviour — slime-mould Physarum, Boids flocking • Plus granular sand, cloth, sandpiles, Schelling segregation, small-world networks, and more INTERACTION Every simulation responds to touch in a way that's specific to it. Drag to inject dye into a fluid; pinch to zoom into a fractal; flip spins in the Ising model; drag the magnets in the Magnetic Pendulum and watch the basin re-paint. Multi-touch is supported throughout. KEEP YOUR ART Save stills (PNG) and short loops (MP4) directly to Photos, share to social, or just sit back and watch. Six color palettes including viridis, magma, plasma, and turbo apply across every simulation. NO ACCOUNTS, NO ADS, NO TRACKING Morphon collects no data, runs no analytics, and connects to no servers. Whatever you make stays on your device. UNIVERSAL & OPTIMISED Built for iPhone and iPad. Targets 60 fps on every supported device with thermal-aware downshift on older hardware. Pencil-aware on iPad: pressure and tilt drive simulation parameters where it makes sense. Open it. Touch it. The math does the rest.

Megalith turns a handful of words into a striking, block-justified text graphic — and now sets it in motion. Every line is stretched to fill the same width, with each line's font size set by how much text it holds — so your words form a solid block with clean edges on both sides. It's the look of vintage justified posters ("ON THE BEACH," the old "FALL IN" recruitment prints), rebuilt as a fast, tactile app. Type. Shuffle. Share. Enter a phrase and Megalith lays it out instantly. Don't love the arrangement? Tap Shuffle to re-roll the line breaks and font mix — every tap is a fresh composition. Step back through previous shuffles with Undo. NOW IN MOTION Tap Animate to bring your poster to life. Each line stretches and snaps into place, turning your finished graphic into a short, looping animation. Export it as a GIF or video, built for social posts, stories, and feeds where motion catches the eye. The static poster works exactly as before — Animate just gives it a second life in motion. MADE FOR - Quotes, lyrics, and one-liners - Album-cover and merch-style lettering - Social posts, stories, and covers — still or animated - Anyone who loves bold typography FEATURES - Block-justified layout that fills clean left and right edges automatically - Animate your poster into a looping GIF or video — made for stories and posts - Shuffle to re-roll fonts and line breaks — with Undo - Three typeface families: sans serif, serif, and slab serif - Multiple fonts mixed across lines for real poster character - Force your own line breaks by pressing return - Adjustable minimum line length to control how short a line can get - Pick any text and background color - Use a photo as your background, with optional blur - Four canvas formats: Square, Portrait (4:5), Story (9:16), and Poster (2:3) - Live preview that matches your export exactly — what you see is what you share - High-resolution export to Photos, Messages, social apps, and Files DESIGNED TO FEEL EFFORTLESS Behind the simple interface is a careful layout engine that measures the actual ink of each letter to align edges precisely, then balances fonts and breaks for a result that looks composed, not computed. That same care carries into motion — the animation follows the layout, so it looks designed, not just animated. You just type — Megalith makes it look intentional. No account. No subscription. Just type a few words and make something worth sharing — still or in motion. Screenshots include quotes from Bob Dylan's "From a Buick 6," Carbon Leaf's "Paloma," Saul Williams' "Amethyst Rocks," and Temples' "Keep in the Dark," along with a photo by Gabriele Motter.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Megalith at none against Morphon's 1. On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
