Fly Lab: Pocket Laboratory

A living laboratory in your pocket. Start with one fruit fly, shape its world and discover what happens next. Fly Lab is an open-ended 3D life simulator for iPhone and iPad, inspired by fruit-fly research. Place food and water, adjust the environment and watch how your choices influence behavior, health and the next generation. No levels to clear or script to follow. Bring your curiosity. PLACE SOMETHING. SEE WHAT CHANGES. Try sugar, yeast, banana and more. Choose where each sample goes, then observe how the fly responds. Different materials serve different needs: energy alone is not the whole story. MAKE THE CHAMBER YOUR EXPERIMENT Adjust light, temperature and humidity. Explore the day-night cycle. Change one condition to make a comparison, or try your own combination and see how the chamber responds. WATCH A COLONY DEVELOP Follow eggs, larvae, pupae and emerging adults when conditions allow. Food, water and crowding matter. Select individual flies to check their condition as the colony grows. LOOK BEYOND THE MOVEMENT Follow seven readings covering food, water, energy, protein, toxins, rest and health. Explore a simplified neural diagram showing connections between the founder fly's modeled needs and behavior. TURN CURIOSITY INTO AN EXPERIMENT Find starting points in Ideas, record your predictions and observations, and explore the research sources. Use them as inspiration, not a fixed list of things you can do. FOLLOW LIFE AT YOUR OWN PACE Observe movement in real time and use limited time advances to explore longer biological changes. Optional Run while closed calculates the elapsed biological time when you return. A Home Screen widget shows the founder fly's saved readings or timestamped estimates; updates are managed by iOS. Made for iPhone and iPad, with extra room for observation on the larger screen. Includes English and Danish. No account required. One purchase, with no subscription or in-app purchases. One chamber. Your questions. See what develops. Fly Lab is a simplified simulation, not a validated biological prediction tool or a complete brain simulation. Its readings are model scores, not measured biological percentages. Explore hazardous scenarios only in the simulation, never on real insects.
