  • You’ve changed...

    How could you do this Math Papa? Since the 7th grade you have helped me survive the endless math homework that was forced upon me, giving me the answer that I needed and the work that went along with it. You were my friend, a great companion for all things math related. But when school rolled around this year, you try to start charging me for the “how to do” part. Why is this? You are a CALCULATOR that was so heavily depended on by many students suffering through their math. And now all of a sudden you get all greedy and take one of the few hopes that we have and pull it out of our grasps. Yes some people might be able to pay for this minor inconvenience and yes you need a way to make a living, but this is not the way. People like me can not and will not pay for certain things like this, having to pay 10 dollars a month for the step by step guide is ridiculous. I’m still keeping the app for a quick conversion here and there, but that’s about it’s good for now. To those who are looking for a free and far superior app, check out Photomath. How could you Math Papa, you’ve changed for the worse...

    Dear LBHurd, So glad you enjoyed our step by step homework help and found MathPapa to be a trusty math companion! Yes our prices are slightly higher than your usual “math app.” We've done a lot of work on the app since you first downloaded it. We take extraordinary time and care to craft our explanations and clean design so you can learn and understand your homework with minimal frustration.
  • It's ok

    I love this app but I dislike the fact that you must pay to show the steps. I would recommend this app to my friends and family IF you could show steps for free.
  • Fully functional

    It simply works as it should.
  • Bruuuuuh 😭

    I used to absolutely adore this app and use it literally all the time. I stopped using it for a while cause it was summer and stuff and I didn’t need to be doing any math, and I’ve gotten back on this year and I now have to pay to see the explanations :(. The fact that it showed me how the problem was solved is the reason I loved this app, but now it doesn’t help me nearly as much as it used to.

  • Needed Money?

    This app was undeniably the best app for when I had trouble with math, but now I could just say it’s another calculator in a sense. With the instalment of “ new”premium features you now have to pay to see how to solve the problems step by step. That in itself wouldn’t be so much of a big deal if it wasn’t for the fact that the cost is almost 10 dollars per month!? This app is still great for getting answers to problems but that’s about all it’s good for unless you want to pay a monthly fee to learn something along with it too. I suppose ads weren’t enough to keep the app running? Whatever the case may be for this seemingly major change I hope it isn’t forever because it’s a still a nice calculator but no longer an easy, quick, and free teacher.

  • Y tho?

    I USED TO really like this app. It really helped me with math. Like A LOT. But then there was a study a guide. And there were questions I didn’t understand, and my answers were completely different from the calc’s. And when I wanted to know what I was doing wrong, but you have to pay for step by step. That’s ridiculous. Ur a calculator. Just solve the problems and help us understand how you got the answer. Why do we have to pay for it now? Math Papa, you shouldn’t have done that. I’m really confused. I’m supposed to be ur grandchild. Don’t make me pay to understand things. Plz stop this foolishness because u don’t know how close I am to deleting this and giving u an even worse review. Itz 2 stars right now but I’ll bring it up if this app reads this review, responds, and changes the app so we don’t have to pay for step by step. Please.
    Thank you.

  • Why so expensive!!???

    I would have paid 10-15$ for this app (full price), but it is 13$ per month...!!!

    Cool app, but WAY to expensive...!

    ... Don’t need this application to do the math on hoe expensive this becomes... 🙄
  • Algebra

    Hi MathPapa I love algebra I’m only 8 years old and I love it so I am going to keep the algebra calculator on my iPad (forever)
  • Amazing but...

    This app is really useful when you have algebra homework but it can get confused sometimes if it thinks the sums are trying to be written in a way it recognises differently to the way you need it to be. This happened today when I was trying to mark a sum; when I checked it in the answer booklet it turned out that the calculator had misunderstood me. Would recommend the app but just be aware of this issue.

  • SUGGESTION: Surprisingly amazing, but not gonna pay extra.

    So I use this all the time. It helps me teach the math using what I recall from class and what the answer does. It’s so helpful. I don’t use it to teach step by step, I just see the answer and try to get it myself. If I’m still stuck, I use step by step. However, I’m never gonna pay a single dime on a freaking calculator. Can there be a "don’t ask again" button for the premium? I can see schools paying extra for it as it is great for different teaching methods, but don’t keep trying to get me to pay. Please take this suggestion into consideration, I’d really appreciate it.
