### 2/5 — Its okay I guess

*2022-08-28, version 1.3.13*

I mean in the ads it worked but when I took good photo it couldn’t scan it and I tried everything I mean I think if it did work I would love it but it’s just not working and I tried to paste the question but it just didn’t let me

### 5/5 — The app is really helpful

*2021-12-20, version 1.3.12*

The app helps you with math a lot but don’t cheat on your online or offline exam with this this is to help you when you can’t understand anything or if you don’t have a home teacher to help you

### 3/5 — It was ok.

*2021-11-30, version 1.3.12*

This app is great for math problems but I will say that there are a lot of adds from when you click on your scanner to when your done scanning it. If you don’t like adds then this app isn’t for you but I personally don’t mind them because it lets you click X as soon as it pops up.

### 2/5 — Fake

*2021-11-21, version 1.3.12*

This app good for only plant 🌱 study, not for math problems….. This app is totally fake fake fake….. I recommend you to download Photomath app, if you have any doubt so you could get answer from it, please get your app check once again and please grant my request🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 With honour 
From Britain 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

### 3/5 — Excellent BUT

*2021-11-16, version 1.3.12*

It’s very useful but it takes too much space, nearly 1G !

### 1/5 — photo math is better then dis .

*2021-09-27, version 1.3.12*

This app is trash , there’s a ad every I hit the scan button to work a problem out . Honestly I would not get the app I think photo math is better in my opinion .

### 1/5 — Don’t even bother downloading the app,it doesn’t even function

*2021-08-26, version 1.3.12*

I tried to take a photo of a quadratic function and it didn’t even solved it, it said it can’t be solve but I tried until I could solve it on my own so it is pretty bad the app

### 5/5 — The best app

*2021-06-01, version 1.3*

I Gotta say is the best app I think I’ve gotten

### 1/5 — Why is that subscription?

*2021-05-30, version 1.3*

This subscription has no sense. I know apps that have the same function as yours and they are completly FREE. For translator you have Google Translate. For math stuff you have Photomath. For plant identifier you have Google Photo Search. And all they are completly FREE. So i dont think this have sense.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2021-05-30, version 1.3*

Over half Of your time will be wasted on ads.
