Description
Unleash your inner scientist with Turtle Universe! Over 100 models designed and used by real scientists to explore the world of science. Try it out today!
Are you a curious student eager to explore deeper into the physics world?
Are you a science enthusiast who wants to share your ideas with others?
Are you an adventurer bounded by textbook instructions and budget limits?
Are you a romantic dreaming of having your own customized galaxy?
Are you a teacher who wants to use fun and interactive demonstrations in your physics lessons?
Learn science by doing experiments in your virtual lab with Physics Lab. With our new AR mode, you can even bring your experiments to life!
In Physics Lab, you can play with various circuit components, build your own 3D electric circuits, and see how they work in real time. With 100+ circuit components to choose from (and more coming soon), the possibilities are endless. Plus, all of our experiments are backed by science and calculated with precise numbers, so you can learn and have fun at the same time.
Physics Lab is not only for students, but for teachers too! Use it to demonstrate experiments in class, and help your students learn and explore in a new way. And because it's virtual, you don't have to worry about expensive lab equipment or safety concerns.
Explore with freedom
- Pick from 100+ circuit components (more coming!)
- Drag them from the toolbox to the virtual desk and connect them the way you like
- All experiment results are backed by science and calculated in precise numbers
- Design your own galaxy or load from our solar system
- Electromagnetic experiments with field line visualization
Better than real life
- Set properties of circuit components to different figures and observe changes of behavior and stats in real time
- One-click to turn what you have built into an editable circuit diagram and vice versa
- No expenses on lab equipments, no worry about safety issues
A lab for everyone
- Teachers have been using Physics Lab to demonstrate experiments and assist teaching in class
- Students, in primary or high schools, can learn science and explore freely anywhere, anytime
- Kids or not, curious minds now have their own virtual lab to learn knowledge by doing experiments
Whether you're a teacher, student, or just someone who loves learning about physics, Physics Lab has something for everyone. Connect with us and let us know what you think, and check out our subscription options to access even more experiments and components. We can't wait to see what you create!

What’s New
Version 2.5.0
This update largely comes from community member @Arendelle.
If you want to participate in Physics Lab's development, please join our Web Forum.
1) Added full subtractor and half subtractor components.
2) The position and angle of components can be precisely adjusted in the component panel.
3) Electrical components can be locked by default in the settings, unaffected by gravity and collision.
4) Fixed some experimental and interface issues.
Ratings and Reviews
Good app idea
If you’re planning on making a real life circuit, then it’s good to test it here.
Fair
This app is kinda disappointing. Wires won’t attach in desktop mode, you can’t rotate objects which is obnoxious when wires go all over the top of everything to get to the opposite side of the object.
I wanted to use this to model some sound experiments, and I expect some things to be missing from the free version. I don’t really care about that, since most of what I need is in the free version... except for a couple of major oversights that aren’t in the app at all. Specifically:
Transistors and potentiometers aren’t anywhere to be found, and I don’t believe I saw opamps either.
Great app but...
This is a really amazing app, just maybe make more stuff free. However I do appreciate that you made a lot free though because on some apps they Only give you one item for free in each section. Also, maybe add more options like the dwarf planets, Pluto, MakeMake, Haumea, Ceres, and Eris. And maybe make a way to earn gems in the app. And please tell me if there already is, I just got this app today. Thanks for reading!
Developer Response ,
Dear friend, we have a regular activity that allows you to get free trial of components using credits; and if you sign in every day, you can also get fragments or diamonds to exchange for components. We think the price is quite cheap comparing to our cost; yet we do want it to be non-profit someday. Just like wikipedia: you still need funding to continue it.
