Earlier quoted context omitted.

Are you using the same browser on both...?

They cannot be, because all browsers on iOS are reskinned Safari (due to Apple's App Store policies), and Safari is not on Android.

Good point, I was using Firefox on both but as you said Firefox on iOS is just Safari. To be fair to Mozilla, I am running Firefox nightly on Android.

Pretty cool, but it acts more like a dense gas than water. Very bouncy and not sticky enough

Looks nice but not like water. It keeps moving forever. A bucket of water would stand still after a few minutes. Edit: Seems to lack simulation of friction between water particles?

Came here with the same nitpick. It settles down too slowly. Also takes too long to start moving after changing angle. So it's in this weird spot where it's both more + less reactive than real water.

My dad worked on the Apollo program In The 60s. They were using analog computers to simulate fuel slosh in the tanks. He also had a flight sim display that allegedly could go from space (earth as a circle?) To low level horizon and grid. I never saw either but am about to toss schematics for the later with the rest of his stuff. Personal note - he died in '03 and I'm done hanging on to stuff. :-)
