MathScope turns equations into graphs you can see and play with. Type a formula and its graph appears instantly; drag a slider and watch it change. From a textbook parabola to a Klein bottle, it all renders smoothly at your fingertips. Free to download: graph y = f(x) and implicit curves, plot 3D surfaces z = f(x, y), animate parameters with sliders, mark zeros and extrema, and explore part of the gallery at no cost. Upgrade to MathScope Pro when you want the full toolkit. 2D GRAPHING β€’ One smart input box: y = xΒ², xΒ² + yΒ² = 9, r = 2sin(3ΞΈ) and (cos 3t, sin 2t) are recognized automatically as explicit, implicit, polar or parametric β€’ Overlay several functions, each with its own color and one-tap show/hide β€’ Parameter sliders: write a, b or k in a formula and a slider appears; tap β–Ά to animate it β€’ Analysis tools: mark zeros, extrema and intersections; long-press a curve to trace coordinates and the tangent line; show the symbolic derivative fβ€²(x); shade a definite integral with draggable bounds β€’ A keyboard designed for math, so input is fast and accurate 3D SPACE β€’ Surfaces z = f(x, y), implicit surfaces F(x, y, z) = 0, parametric surfaces and space curves β€’ C++-accelerated Marching Cubes engine generates complex implicit surfaces in seconds β€’ Cinematic rendering: physically based materials, environment reflections, bloom, 7 color maps, wireframe mesh and auto-rotate CURATED GALLERY 50+ classic and surprising shapes: cardioid, rose curves, butterfly curve, spirograph, Fourier square wave, Taylor expansions, Mexican hat, MΓΆbius strip, Klein bottle, trefoil knot and more. Tap one to open, edit and animate it. FAVORITES & EXPORT Save the graphs you like, with history kept automatically, and export images to share with friends. MATHSCOPE PRO Unlocks parametric and polar curves, the full 3D space, intersections / derivative / integral tools, the entire gallery, all color maps and ultra-high-resolution meshes, 4K export without watermark, and unlimited functions and favorites. β€’ Yearly (includes a 3-day free trial) and Monthly: auto-renewing subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

About

QuackyBrush

Features
Read full description

QuackyBrush 3D is a freestyle 3D modeler and painter. Tap to place primitives β€” sphere, ellipsoid, cylinder, capsule, cone, frustum, torus, box. Move, resize, rotate, mirror, group, and carve them into anything you can picture. When the shape is right, bake to fuse the primitives into a single smooth model. Then paint directly on the surface. Save as a Creation. Place it in a Scene with a movable light and other models. Render the scene to your camera roll. Built for everyone - ideal for 7+ (kids who play Minecraft/Roblox or other 3D games performed well in UX testing). The interface respects your time. Drag-first input on top of an SDF + smooth-min CSG engine. Premium creative ownership - buy once, no subscription. What you can make. Stuffed animals, cute characters, low-poly game assets, 3D-print-ready props, game mascots, geometric sculpture, snowmen, ducks, chess pieces, mushrooms, robots. The primitive set composes into more than its parts. Negative-space carving. Switch any primitive to Carve mode and it becomes a subtractive ghost - eye sockets, mouth slots, embossed details, cavities. Smooth-min CSG fillets the boundary so carves feel hand-shaped, not Boolean-clean. Groups + pre-bake. Build a head, group its parts, pre-bake the group into a single fused unit. Drag the head as one piece while you keep adding to the body. Mirror. X, Y, or Z. Place one ear, get the other automatically. Place one eye, get the second symmetric. Free trackball rotate. Drag in any direction - the model rotates around the axis perpendicular to your finger. Need axis-locked rotation? Switch to X / Y / Z sub-tools. Orthographic toggle: Faux-orthographic camera for design-grade views.
