Not my fave app *2024-02-06, version 3.6* ... ### 1/5 — Membership *2023-01-23, version 3.6* The answer is the whole reason i downloaded the app in the first place and i cant even see it because i have to pay. How does this make sense and who would buy it i do not understand. ### 1/5 — Rip off, not what I asked for *2023-01-22, version 3.6* I have to pay for it to calculate my question, what??? There are better apps than this DON’T even bother 😑😔 ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-01-08, version 3.6* I cant even do one problem without having to do a trial or pay for it! 😤 ### 1/5 — you cant use this app without making a payment *2022-10-25, version 3.6* I would recommend other math applications over this. this app does not provide free service :/ ### 1/5 — Don’t download *2022-10-05* It may seem free and it will work like a charm finding your problem. When you hit solve it will only solve for about $30 a month. Very disappointed thought it was free. Us broke collage kids can’t really afford this especially now with inflation. If your fine paying for it then I would go ahead and get it, like I said it found the problem quickly and I’m not sure if it’s accuracy solving the problem. ### 4/5 — I like it *2022-09-08* Im in high school now and I have tried similar apps like photomath, cameramath, mathway before. Actually the color of this one is my favorite;) After I take a picture of a problem, it recognizes the formula quickly. After that many solutions are automatically displayed. But that's why it looks so verbose. And I don't understand why some steps should be obfuscated. It doesn't seem to do anythin but take up screen space. ### 1/5 — Trash *2022-07-06, version 3.6* How do I cancel my subscription because I don’t know how to do it? ### 1/5 — WORST APP EVER! *2022-05-02, version 3.6* It wouldn’t show me the answer and I just want this to end school has tortured all of us kids enough!!😩 I thought this app was good at first but now it won’t work and we have to do a stupid trail?? Ewww someone get rid of this app forever! ### 1/5 — Didn’t work no matter what I did *2022-03-27, version 3.6* I had some maths problems I didn’t get for example I had a trigonometry question where I had to find the missing angle it just said that the missing angle was x even though that’s the missing angle when we don’t know it. I though it would be quicker than having to use a calculator but it doesn’t work for questions like this I’m not even sure if it did work for the question I used it on previously. ### 1/5 — Ugh *2022-01-23, version 3.6* So I thought this was great until by the second question it said get premium! ### 1/5 — I hate how you have to pay for it that’s stupid 🙄🤚🏻 *2021-12-22, version 3.6* Ugh ### 1/5 — It’s not permanent *2021-12-14, version 3.6* U can only do about 4 or 5 questions until it ask for ur money but it still works ### 1/5 — Don’t get it not good *2021-12-07, version 3.6* It only answered one question and then it said “upgrade to premium” ### 3/5 — Hjjjjj *2021-11-14, version 3.6* Hhhhjj ### 1/5 — no. *2021-11-11, version 3.6* its not good as it justs pops up with “buy premium” i just want to do maths ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Another app that is so useless *2025-03-17, version 3.6* First of all don’t even get me started on this app. This is called a math answer scanner for you to scan your question but clearly even if you have access to the camera you can’t scan your question this app is way more useless probably the most useless math app I have ever used in my entire life it’s ridiculous. Whoever made this app should clearly listen to the reviews and listen to the one school. The people who have issues like me the people who have issues with this app like me because it is completely useless I mean how am I even supposed to show them the question? How am I even supposed to like show up the question? What is the point of being of being fully access to Camera? ### 1/5 — Don’t! *2025-01-06* I couldn’t wait to get this app, and solve my math, but when I went to use it, it let me take a picture then it says solve, and when I hit solve, it said you have to pay. I don’t understand why you have to pay for everything it can’t just be free, and useful:/ I never write reviews, but I had to. So don’t get this unless you want to pay for your math problem. Have a great day:) ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2024-10-19* Honestly, this is the worst app I’ve ever used and I really hope none of you ever download it because literally after you solve two questions they start asking you to buy something so you can continue and it is very annoying. I am a student and I thought this would be useful, but it is of no use so I will recommend you do not download it!!! ### 1/5 — not good *2024-09-30, version 3.6* i paid the £29 for the year subscription and for every problem that i have shown it it says it can’t solve it. would NOT recommend this app ### 1/5 — Bad app alphanath *2024-02-26* That a shame that it keep saying error when we take the picture just send the picture and freaking help me with the question because that’s what the app is for write that’s what I thought whoever made this is just wrong because why would they just make something that keep saying error like what’s the point of us downloading this if it going to keep saying error I do not recommend this if your trying to get help for or off of your homework ……like what. ### 1/5 — I want a refund *2023-11-29, version 3.6* Spent £6.99 on a subscription to get: - incorrect answers - incorrect solutions - different questions to the ones I scan It’s completely useless! ### 1/5 — no *2023-11-24, version 3.6* doesnt work ### 1/5 — not working *2023-10-18* not working ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-09-14, version 3.6* Bad camera bad quality don’t waste your money ### 1/5 — Why *2023-04-30, version 3.6* U have to pay ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It really helps me with my homework, its very helpful I love this app!
