Graphing Calculator lets you visualize algebra and calculus interactively and experience 3D graphs in augmented reality on devices which support AR. Graph functions, implicit relations, parametric curves and surfaces, inequalities, points, vectors, contour and density plots, color maps, vector fields, ordinary differential equations, surfaces of revolution, coordinate transformations, conformal maps and complex-valued curves, surfaces, and ODEs. Use rectangular, polar, cylindrical, or spherical coordinates. Solve equations numerically, graphically, or symbolically. "Graphing Calculator is one of the best examples of elegant power and clean user interface of any application I've seen." - Bruce Horn, creator of the Macintosh Finder.
Drawing with Math
This app offers vector and pixel art editors with tools for free drawing, shapes, and function plotting. It allows for linear transformations of images using matrices, eigenvalues, and rotations, alongside pixel image compression.
- Vector and pixel art editors
- Free drawing and shape tools
- Function plotting (Cartesian, polar, parametric)
- Linear image transformations (matrix, rotation)
- Pixel image compression
- Editable greeting cards

Our “Drawing with Math (Vector and Pixel Art)” app combines two main components: * uniquely versatile image editors, * various methods of linear transformations of both user-entered and system images. Image editors are available in vector and pixelated forms. The editors offer such options as: * free drawing, * entry of all standard shapes, * entry of regular Cartesian, polar, or parametric function into image editor. List of several visually appealing functions is provided. The App stores 10 most recent user entries for each type. Vector images can be linearly transformed in a variety of user-defined ways: * 2x2 matrix, * eigenvalues and eigenvectors, * rotation by degree, * reflection across a given vector. Pixelated images can be compressed by segments to user-selected rank. Mathematical context for the above is provided, whenever possible. Explanation of image compression algorithms requires significant understanding of Linear Algebra, and is available in our “Matrix Solver Step by Step” app. Several bonus images with animations and editable greeting cards are also available. Suggestions and any other feedback are welcome! Write to us at graphmath@aol.com.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Drawing with Math at 4.5 against Graphing Calculator AR's 4.0. Drawing with Math also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 70%). Graphing Calculator AR's advantage is ratings volume (40 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Drawing with Math holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Graphing Calculator AR has 40 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 70% of Graphing Calculator AR's written reviews are positive against 100% of Drawing with Math's.
Graphing Calculator AR ships an update every 9 months, Drawing with Math fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
