Learn all about the roots!!! This app generates equations and exercises who are ALWAYS DIFFERENT and provide the COMPLETE SOLUTION !!!! The ideal tool to prepare an exam in algebra or mathematics. Also very useful for teachers who have to prepare the homework or examinations for their students. With this app you can learn and practice ALL TECHNIQUES involving square roots and roots of a higher order. 6 different exercise types are available: 1) Simplify 2) Rationalise 3) Expressions 4) Equations - Easy 5) Equations - Medium (available as in app purchase) 6) Equations - Difficult (available as in app purchase) • In Level 1 you will learn the basics in order to simplify the roots: square roots extraction and calculation rules. • Level 2: you can train the rationalization of roots that is eliminating the root from the denominator. • Level 3: introduces expressions with roots. • Level 4: you can learn the basics of solving equations with roots. The equations presented here are very simple and require a few steps to be resolved. • Level 5: equations become a bit more complicated and require more steps to be resolved. • Level 6: equations that need to be squared twice to be resolved. These equations often lead to a quadratic equation.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Equation Solver & Simplifier at every 3 weeks against Roots's every 32 months. Equation Solver & Simplifier also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.1). Roots's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Roots sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Equation Solver & Simplifier sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Equation Solver & Simplifier holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 10 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Roots's written reviews are positive against 75% of Equation Solver & Simplifier's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Roots ships an update every 32 months, Equation Solver & Simplifier every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
