Do not download unless you’re willing to pay. ### 1/5 — I payed for a year of pro *2026-02-16, version 2.3.5* My app worked fine at first now it crashes every time I try to use it. I reached out to support and didn’t get anything back. I’m still interested in getting this fixed if anyone see this. ### 1/5 — awful scam dont get the subscription *2026-02-08, version 2.3.4* don’t do it! ### 1/5 — You have to pay *2026-01-23, version 2.3.3* You cannot even get one problem for free. You have to pay. ### 1/5 — Charge *2025-10-03, version 2.1.1* Still charge when i cancel before the try period finish charge a 1 year subcription is not right!!! ### 1/5 — Not happy *2025-09-18, version 2.1.1* Not a reliable app ### 1/5 — Horrible!!! *2025-09-06, version 2.0.8* No longer the old Socratic. Gives false answers. Don’t use! ### 1/5 — Don’t Waste Your Time! *2025-09-03, version 2.0.8* Useless unless you pay for it! ### 1/5 — Not like old times *2025-08-06, version 2.0.3* I used this a lot to help with studying back in the day, with the new app you only get a few uses and then have to pay for it. Womp womp. ### 1/5 — I HATE THE NEW VERSION *2025-07-27, version 2.0.2* I used to have Socratic the old version when it was purple and one of my favourite features was the visual demos of what to do and when you swiped up there would be sections for each subjects with demos for everything you would need to learn in it and now it’s gone so i downloaded this version and it just doesn’t help me ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Review *2026-07-19, version 2.4.7* Love this ### 5/5 — top app *2026-04-29, version 2.4.1* got this for my son, if I would have had it as a student would probably become a genius lol ### 5/5 — miracle *2026-04-28, version 2.4.0* I had too much work to do, and didn't get to properly prepare for my exams, but I did a marathon with Socratic Owl to prepare over 3 days just before the real tests and it was like a miracle! ### 5/5 — lets go *2026-04-03, version 2.3.9* I hope it will help me with my exam ### 5/5 — OK *2026-04-02, version 2.3.9* I wish it would give more explanations but still works decently well for my use case ### 5/5 — rlly cool *2026-02-16* keep growing guys ### 5/5 — Does the job *2026-02-01* Needed it for a biology exam, did the trick! ### 5/5 — Great updates *2026-01-31* My sister and I have been using this app for a few months and yesterday we installed the new update. Really good to see they care about user experience. ### 5/5 — surprisingly good *2026-01-30* I tried many apps like this and normally I get disappointed quite quickly but this one is actually decent lol ### 5/5 — They answer support *2025-12-17, version 2.2.6* I recently had an issue with my phone and they were prompt in replying to my message and solving my problem.
