Psychophysical tests are commonly carried out using software applications running on desktop or laptop computers, but running the software on mobile handheld devices such as smartphones or tablets could have advantages in some situations. Here, we present StimuliApp, an open-source application in which the user can create psychophysical tests on the iPad and the iPhone by means of a system of menus. A wide number of templates for creating stimuli are available including patches, gradients, gratings, checkerboards, random-dots, texts, tones or auditory noise. Images, videos and audios stored in files could also be presented. The application was developed natively for iPadOS and iOS using the low-level interface Metal for accessing the graphics processing unit, which results in high timing performance.
心理物理学测试通常使用运行在台式机或笔记本电脑上的软件应用程序进行，但在智能手机或平板电脑等移动手持设备上运行该软件在某些情况下可能具有优势。在这里，我们介绍 StimuliApp，这是一个开源应用程序，用户可以通过菜单系统在 iPad 和 iPhone 上创建心理物理学测试。创建刺激的模板数量众多，包括补丁、梯度、光栅、棋盘格、随机点、文本、音调或听觉噪声。也可以呈现存储在文件中的图像、视频和音频。该应用程序是使用访问图形处理单元的低级接口 Metal 为 iPadOS 和 iOS 原生开发的，这导致了高定时性能。
