Definitely the best math -app available. It includes all the necessary functions and explains how to do the assignment yourself in a understandable way. The photo funktion is surprisingly good and works most of the time. It doesn't require you to carefully write everything in a perfect manner, however you won't get a successful reading, if your writing is hard to read for a normal person. I recommend it to anyone who has a hard time understanding mathematics, and to anyone else.

If you want a calculator that can do everything from a little addition to solving differential equations with a great input interface or even by scanning your handwriting - this is one of the best. There are similar ones like the one from Microsofts, but where Photomath is special is that you can also do (almost) all of this while being offline. Edit: At least until version 6.2.0. In version 7+ you cant even calculate 2+2 without a connection. Fortunately I was able to find an old apk online.

We recently updated our app to give users around the world a better experience regardless of the OS or device. This shift allows us to ship updates and bug fixes faster. And the app does indeed require Internet access. That said, we’ll pass your comments back to HQ. We’re always reachable at support@photomath.com for further feedback.

I love this app. Need help explained how I got from 3×5 to x²+4x-21=0 The camera is good, the format is easy, the answers are reliable. The only thing that changed that I don't like is the fact they made the app only usable with internet. You used to be able to do math anytime, even with airplane mode on but now you can't. Wish they would bring that back. But other than that, it's really good!!!
