ScriptMind is an AI math assistant built for natural handwriting. Write equations, systems, derivatives, integrals, or calculus problems with your finger or stylus just like you would on paper. ScriptMind recognizes your handwriting and provides clear step-by-step solutions with the final answer. It also supports photo work checking. Take a photo of your completed solution, and AI will review both the steps and the final answer, mark the result as correct, partially correct, or incorrect, and explain what went wrong. Incorrect and partially correct reports are saved locally so you can review the most useful mistakes later. 【Key Features】 Natural Handwriting Input Skip complicated math keyboards. Write formulas naturally, including multi-line expressions, fractions, roots, equation systems, derivatives, integrals, and common calculus problems. Photo Work Checking Check a full written solution, not just the final answer. ScriptMind helps identify missed roots, substitution mistakes, calculation errors, and reasoning gaps. Step-by-Step Solving See the reasoning from problem to answer, with clear intermediate steps that help you understand the method. Local History & Mistake Review Solved problems are saved automatically. Incorrect and partially correct grading reports are saved to local history, where you can filter, review, revisit, or delete them. Your history stays on your device. Broad Math Coverage Works with regular equations, systems of equations, algebra, derivatives, integrals, and common calculus tasks. English & Chinese Support Fully localized for English and Simplified Chinese. 【Perfect For】 Students: Get unstuck with clear steps. Review sessions: Focus on incorrect and partially correct records that are most worth revisiting. Parents: Check math homework steps and answers quickly. Exam prep: Use detailed explanations to find gaps and understand methods. 【Subscription Information】 ScriptMind Pro is available through auto-renewing subscriptions and unlocks more advanced cloud recognition, solving, and checking features. Exact pricing, subscription period, trial eligibility, and local currency are shown on the App Store purchase confirmation screen and may vary by region or promotion.
