The use of Android smartphones has been emerging quite fast. It distracts most of the students’ attention from their studies. While at one side, it brings some negative impacts on students, on the other hand, it opens some opportunity to use the students’ deep engagement with Android smartphones as a source of excitement to promote physics learning-media. We have conducted research in Surabaya (Indonesia) and its vicinity to address the use of Android smartphones as student physics learning source. Applying the 4-D model, we have developed Android mobile-apps based physics learning-media on several topics of introductory high school physics. The physics learning-media have been tried out by several groups of students and have received positive comments from the users.
