Best Science App for Android
10 best science apps for Android
Science is everywhere and is a part of everything. However, most people don’t know all that much about science. We have the basics, like how water evaporates when heated or (in general) how the sun works. There is a whole lot more than that, though. There is always an opportunity to learn more about the world around us, even the stuff that we can’t see. These apps should help with that. Here are the best science apps for Android!
Curiosity
Price: Free
Curiosity
is a general information app. It features a variety of short-form
articles and videos about a variety of topics. Among them are
informational content about science, psychology, astronomy, and various
other types. The app is customizable. That means you can set it to only
see the stuff you want. It boasts over one million videos and thousands
of articles. It's also completely free to download and use. There are
some ads, though. It's one of the more accessible science apps.
Feedly
Price: Free
Feedly
is an RSS reader app. It lets people aggregate various news sources in
one spot. There are a ton of science blogs, sites, and news sources.
They can be difficult to keep up with on their own. Feedly gives you a
way to keep track of all of that stuff. The interface is simple.
Additionally, it has cross-platform support, some customization
features, and integrations with Facebook, Twitter, IFTTT, Pinterest, and
others. It's a rock solid app.
Google Drive
Price: Free / Up to $99.99 per month
Google
Drive is one of the better science apps for students and scientists.
Most people know what Google Drive is and what it does. You can store
various files there, collaborate on projects with other people, and use
the office suite for whatever you need. The Google Sheets and Docs are a
good place for jotting down data and info. In addition, Google Keep
integrates with Google Drive. That adds note taking to the whole
package. It's excellent and definitely one of the better science apps.
Google Play Books (or similar apps)
Price: Free / Varies
Google
Play Books is an ebook platform with a ton of science material. That
includes regular ebooks, audiobooks, and more. The titles vary in price.
However, Google Play Books lets you download them for offline reading
and there are a bunch of other features. To be fair, most ebook provides
have things like downloads for offline. In any case, we like Google's
ecosystem because they also have a Newsstand section of the Play Store
with science magazines like Popular Mechanics, Scientific American, and
many others. Google Play Books and Newsstand are both excellent sources
of science learning and science news.
Khan Academy
Price: Free
Many
science apps focus on specific topics. Khan Academy is great for just
the basics. It's an online learning app with plenty of topics. They
include math, science, economics, and many others. They boast a total
collection of over 10,000 videos. There is a ton of science information
in this one. Khan Academy also has a kids version of their app that was
launched in August of 2018. There isn't a ton of science there, but the
stuff it does have is great for younger kids. Both the adult and kids
versions of Khan Academy are 100% free.
NASA
Price: Free
Of
course NASA is one of the best science apps for Android. This one lets
you connect with NASA and many of the things that its doing. That
includes access to 14,000 NASA videos, mission information, NASA TV
access, and some 2D maps and 3D models of the various planetary bodies
in our solar system. Plus, it has an extensive library of 16,000 images
that make for great wallpapers. There aren't many apps out there with
this much astronomy and space stuff. Plus, it's entirely free as far as
we can tell.
Pocket Casts
Price: $3.99
Pocket
Casts is probably the best podcast app available right now. It features
rock solid performance, tons of podcasts, cross-device syncing, and
even some customization. There are a number of tremendous science
podcasts available on a variety of topics. That includes the science
behind hot new topics, science about old stuff, and just general science
stuff. There are tons of good podcast apps, like Doggcatcher and
others. It doesn't matter, really. The point is that there are tons of
science podcasts that can teach you a lot and they're consistent.
Science Journal
Price: Free
Google's
Science Journal is an excellent app for science. It records your
progress as you do various things. It may not be in-depth enough for the
every day researcher. However, it's more than good enough for students,
kids, and some scholars. You record experiments, progress,
observations, and data as usual. This app also lets you use sensors on
your Android phone to record data as well. In that, Science Journal is
unique. It's also totally free with no in-app purchases.
TED
Price: Free
TED
is an excellent app for a variety of subjects. It's not educational on
the face of it. However, it does feature talks and lectures from
prominent people of industry, experts of various topics, and others. One
such talk was about full body transplants, for instance. The app
features more than 2,000 talks, an integrated podcast, cross-device
syncing, bookmarks, and more. The app is also entirely free with no
in-app purchases. It's not a complete education, but it is an excellent
spot for hearing about the latest in science, technology, and many other
industries.
YouTube
Price: Free / $9.99 per month
YouTube
is one of the better science apps. It features a variety of YouTube
videos about a variety of scientific subjects. Some of them is just some
idiot mixing two things together. However, many channels like Vsauce,
nurdrage, minutephysics, Smarter Every Day, and many others really take
the topics they discuss seriously. Some of them are super hardcore while
others discuss basic topics. You can actually get a full education here
if you watch long enough (and watch the right videos). The optional
$9.99 per month YouTube Red subscription removes ads and allows for
background streaming, among other things.
