Playground Physics

I’m a high school physics teacher, and this app is better than anything else free out there on mobile. I like that students can upload videos they took previously, but just watch out bc it only accepts landscape orientation. I also would really like to see some slow mo options, because the time intervals aren’t adjustable, so it works best on fairly slow moving objects. Otherwise, works well.

I've been searching for an app that my students can use more accurately time motion of falling objects and rolling objects, and pendulum motion. This is simple to use,quick to learn, and even gives average velocity between multiple points on a video. Cool speedometer on screen, and on screen graph of speed between multiple point.

...where's the slow-motion? As a martial artist, I bought this give me an idea of my speed and relative power and hopefully to help me better break down my form and look for my mistakes. Can you PLEASE fix the lack of slo-mo?? Thanks! Keep up the good work!

The app was released with iOS 9 on the horizon and still crashes due to developers not having played catchup. Great idea, for the app, and I'm sure the tool is useful on older devises, but I traded in my commodore 64 a long time ago.

This app has the feel of a hastily put together, half-formed thought. Tagging the position of an object in a video is crazy imprecise... the position marker is large, making it difficult to center, and there's no algorithm or tool to keep the marker on-target. This results in a jagged path, and because of this no single piece of data is accurate or useful. In addition, you get values for instants in time, but you do not get graphs of position, velocity, acceleration... no vectors... I teach physics, and I can honestly find no place in my classroom for this app. I am not sure at all to whom they are marketing this app.

This might be a great app, but it isn't what I was looking for. I know it was only $2.99, but it's useless to me, so I'm stuck with it. I really do wish we could try before we buy. You can't even return it.

Don’t get this app ur a loser if u play this

This game is trash, I don’t even know how to play it, fix your game cause playgrounds is good.

I hate school, period.

This app is terrible, coming in at one star. You are a nerd if you get this.
