mozaik3D

mozaik3D is a multi-subject learning app for students aged 8 to 18, built around interactive 3D scenes and related learning activities. It is a strong fit for learners who want visual resources across school subjects, but the small weekly free allowance makes it a limited choice for regular use without a subscription.

Overview

The app’s library spans more than 1,300 interactive 3D scenes. Students can rotate and enlarge scenes or inspect them from preset angles; most add narration, animation, captions and quizzes. This variety makes mozaik3D useful for exploring and reviewing topics, rather than just viewing an illustration. Its multi-subject scope is a strength for learners moving between school topics, but those seeking a narrowly focused science simulator may prefer a specialist tool.

Key features

Walking, animation, narration, exercises, freehand drawing and games offer different ways to engage with the material. Search and filtering help students find content across the broad library. Quizzes and exercises support practice, though the app is better understood as a learning resource than a dedicated assessment platform.

More than 110 scenes offer native virtual reality, and additional scenes are being added. The app is available in the Meta and Pico app stores, but VR applies to selected scenes rather than the whole collection.

A STUDENT licence also includes mozaBook use and lets a student connect to a teacher’s mozaBook for classroom work. One licence works across multiple devices, which is convenient for a student using more than one screen, but only one device can be logged in at a time.

Pricing

The free account costs 0.00 EUR and allows five 3D scenes or educational videos and five educational tools or games per week. That is enough to sample the library or use it occasionally, but the weekly caps are restrictive for sustained study.

The Mozaik STUDENT list price is €36 a year for one student, with multiple devices and full access to interactive content and educational applications. It is the straightforward option for an individual learner who expects to use the library regularly.

Licence packs of at least 30 cost €26 a year per student, also with one student, multiple devices and full access. The lower per-student price makes this the better fit for a school or group buying at that scale; it is not an individual discount. The included mozaBook use and classroom connection add value for students whose teacher uses that software.

Platforms

mozaik3D supports web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. Minimum requirements are Windows 8.1 or later, macOS 10.14 or later, Android 8 or later, iOS 13 or later, and 4 GB RAM on desktop or 2 GB on mobile. Opening 3D scenes in a browser or on a special device requires installing one of the listed players, an extra step for web use.

Who it's for

Students aged 8 to 18 are the core audience, particularly those who benefit from visual exploration and want resources across multiple subjects. A STUDENT licence also suits learners who need regular access or classroom connection through a teacher’s mozaBook. Occasional users can stay with the free account, provided five scenes or videos and five tools or games weekly are enough.

Schools should consider the 30-or-more-user licence pack when purchasing for a group. Families or individual students who need frequent access will find the single-student annual licence more practical than working around the free limits.

Pros and cons

Pros: More than 1,300 scenes combine interactive viewing with narration, animation, captions and quizzes in most of the collection, supporting both exploration and practice.

Pros: Multi-subject coverage, educational tools and games make it useful beyond a single course or topic.

Pros: Native VR for more than 110 scenes and mozaBook classroom connectivity give learners additional ways to use the content.

Cons: The free account’s weekly limits are too small for many students’ regular study needs.

Cons: Only one device can be logged in at a time, despite a licence being usable across multiple devices.

Cons: Browser access to scenes requires installing a listed player, adding setup friction.

Alternatives

Choose Beyond Labz if you want a science-focused alternative with free instructor access for teaching, previewing and building assignments; its Chemistry plan is $31.95 as a one-time purchase payment.

PhET Interactive Simulations is the better fit for students and teachers who want free, open-source simulations that can be used online or downloaded.

Consider Inq-ITS when a school or district needs tiered plans priced by student count, including district-wide and multi-year options.

PraxiLabs offers a free plan with one month of access to three simulations, basic real-time guidance and English and Arabic interfaces; it suits someone looking to try a limited set of simulations before considering a paid plan.

ExploreLearning Gizmos is another option for learners who want interactive science activities, with a free account limited to a collection of Gizmos and paid packages for schools and districts.

Labster suits institutions seeking a paid lab-learning engagement, with annual engagements typically beginning at $5,000 a year.

MindLabs is worth considering for homeschool use: its Power Bundle is a one-time purchase of 109.00 USD for one educator and up to five students, with a one-, two- or three-year access period and one AR card deck.

Choose Pivot Interactives instead for classroom science activities: its Classroom plan costs $6.10 a year per seat and includes 500+ activities for one year, activity customization, Co-Lab student collaboration and basic LMS integration.

Verdict

mozaik3D is best for students aged 8 to 18 who want a broad, visual learning resource with interactive scenes, quizzes and optional VR. Its strongest case is the combination of multi-subject breadth and classroom connection through mozaBook; look elsewhere if you need generous free access, a focused science simulator or concurrent use on multiple devices.
