Abstract FizziQ is a comprehensive mobile ecosystem that transforms smartphones into portable physics laboratories, offering an innovative and accessible solution to the long-standing challenges of practical experimentation in physics education. In addition to leveraging built-in smartphone sensors, FizziQ allows users to conduct real-time measurements, analyse data in a dedicated notebook, and engage in scientific inquiry. The application includes an integrated experimental notebook for data recording and scientific methodology, as well as FizziQ connect, a hardware extension that expands experimentation capabilities through external sensor integration. In this article, we provide an overview of the FizziQ app and examine students’ perceptions of its pedagogical use in first-year undergraduate physics experiments. Feedback from students indicates that the FizziQ interface is generally perceived as intuitive and easy to use, enabling simple data analysis thanks to the FizziQ notebook. This demonstrates that FizziQ is a highly valuable tool for students and teachers to develop smartphone-based experimentation.
