Linear Algebra Visualizer vs Linear Algebra
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Linear Algebra Visualizer
This app helps you understand linear algebra by visualizing matrix transformations. It shows the step-by-step math behind transformations, allowing you to build visual intuition and see how matrices work.
- Visualize matrix transformations
- Understand step-by-step math
- Build visual intuition
- See effect of TRS order
- Explore eigenvectors and eigenvalues
- Manipulate transformations

Ever wondered what a matrix is really doing? Whether you're learning it yourself or teaching students who are stuck, this app lets you visualise and manipulate matrix transformations, so you can finally see how and why they work. WHY IT CLICKS Most apps show you the answer. This one shows you why. The columns of a matrix are just where the basis vectors î and ĵ land. Column one is red. Column two is green. Follow those colors from your input, through the transformed vectors, into the step-by-step math. One number, traced all the way to its effect. With Linear Algebra Visualizer you: - Can finally build the visual intuition of linear algebra - Understand the math behind each transformation - Visually see why TRS order matters - Understand the effect of adding multiple matrices and translations - Watch eigenvectors and eigenvalues come alive BUILT FOR - Students surviving their first linear algebra course - Graphics programmers who want intuition, not just formulas - Teachers who need a live demo that lands - Anyone who's stared at a matrix and thought "but why does this work?" - Visual thinkers who've struggled to picture it all in their head Stop memorizing matrices. Start seeing them. Download Linear Algebra Vizualiser: Rotate, Scale, Shear, Reflect, Translate and learn to understand transformations visually. Ever wondered what a matrix is really doing?

MatrixViz makes linear algebra and computer graphics understandable by turning the maths into interactive visuals. Built for complete beginners, MatrixViz lets you drag vectors, reshape matrices, move cameras, adjust projections, and immediately see what each formula does. Every learning module connects a plain-language idea to a guided experiment, a live visual, the underlying equation, and a symbol-by-symbol explanation. LEARN LINEAR ALGEBRA VISUALLY • Explore vectors in 2D and 3D • Turn matrix columns into draggable handles • See rotation, scale, shear, reflection, and composition happen live • Understand determinants, inverse matrices, span, basis, and independence • Discover eigenvectors by finding the directions a transformation cannot turn UNDERSTAND COMPUTER GRAPHICS • Follow coordinates from object space to the screen • Inspect model, view, and projection matrices • Compare perspective and orthographic projection • Learn cameras, frustums, lighting, normals, depth, blending, winding, and culling • Experiment with Metal shader patterns using beginner-friendly visual controls LEARN BY DOING • Guided lessons paired with the real interactive modules • Always-visible formulas and plain-language symbol keys • Sliders and direct manipulation instead of code-first controls • Saved sandbox presets for returning to experiments • Adaptive layouts for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro • Light and dark appearance options MATRIXVIZ PRO Optional MatrixViz Pro unlocks iCloud lesson-progress sync, educator presentation mode, and 1080p matrix-animation export across supported Apple platforms. MatrixViz Pro Monthly and MatrixViz Pro Yearly are auto-renewable subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when the purchase is confirmed. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in Apple Account Settings. MatrixViz Pro Lifetime is a one-time purchase and does not renew. Prices vary by storefront.
