What makes our smartphones interesting and useful? Of course, it is the apps! Here are some newly designed apps that you may want to have a try!
Beaker
Is chemistry your favourite subject? With this app, your smartphone turns into a beaker. You “pour” chemical materials by touching the upper right-hand corner of your smartphone. You “light” a match by beating the screen quickly. You can ▲ the “beaker” to make chemical reactions(反应) go faster. There are 300 chemical reactions in all. The interesting thing is that you can “pour” chemical materials from one “beaker” to another with two smartphones.
Star Chart
Are you an astronomy fan? If so, Star Chart is the perfect app for you. It is like a real-time 3D universe in your pocket. Point your smartphone at the sky. You might discover that you are pointing at a planet. You can also use it during the day. Want to know where your star sign is in the sky? Star Chart will tell you all this and more. Point your phone to the ground and you can even see what the night sky looks like for people on the other side of the globe!
