Comments on phyphox for Android

★★★★★ NoNameIdk1 · May 21, 2026

This is what a utility app should be like. There's absolutely no ads or (from my experience) intrusive popups, it's completely free (although if your phone has some sensors missing you'd need to buy a new one, but that's not something the app can fix) and it has all the utilities and data exportation you could like.

★★★★☆ J Gower · May 7, 2026

Very useful tool for gathering pressure data, but it would be helpful if you could keep experimenting running in the background instead of having them stop the moment you exit the app

★★★★★ Billy Thornton · Jun 4, 2026

Chris Boden sent me, ended up loving the app and that's pretty cool.

★☆☆☆☆ Paul Skinner · Feb 12, 2026

Download data, nothing. Waste of several experiments. Don't waste your time; data should be SAFE.

★☆☆☆☆ Alex Lammert · Jun 29, 2026

DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. The reason why is because since this app requires all the permissions on your phone it will lead to a viruse. When I had this installed it put a Trojan horse viruse on my phone and 5 months later it attacked. Killing 2 servers of my family member, it infected 3 tablets 2 phones, 2 very import ain servers, and a printer. it's not worth the gag to have to factory reset everything and having to lose everything with no redemption. Plz be safe
