5/5Literally everything you need in one app.
I was kind of hesitant at first when I paid for this app, which was March of 2022. But I do not regret it one bit. This app has helped me in so many ways, and when you get the premium subscription, it makes everything so much better. I have been using this app to check my work and it is so fast and efficient. I love how there are so many different ways it offers to help solve the problem. For example, if you type a quadratic equation into the calculator, it would ask you how it needs to be solved, or what part of the answer you are looking for. It might come up with, “Solve for x, find the zeros, find the y-intercepts, solve with quadratic formula, solve by factoring” and etc. Point is, this app is just amazing. It saved my life during online school when I was having so much trouble with figuring things out and ultimately the teaching portion of the class fell on my shoulders since the videos didn’t actually explain anything. When I signed up for this, I was able to get a step by step explanation as to how the answer is what it is and why. I also really like the different types of problems it solves. Not only does it work accurately for algebra, but you can enter in physics questions, there’s a graphing calculator, you can work out trig, etc. To say the least, I am extremely satisfied with this app and strongly encourage anyone who is debating getting it to do so if you are going to use it a lot. Your money will not go to waste, this app does not disappoint.

5/5Reviewing solutions
I give this an easy 5 stars 👌🏽👌🏽 I first found mathway in middle school in 6th grade I believe and it was amazing. I always kept it on my phone and it was a MUST HAVE math app. But the difference between now and then (I’m a sophomore now btw) is that it used to have free answer solutions. And since my parents won’t pay for the subscription and I don’t work I can’t see the answers that I need. All of my math teachers so far are my favorites because if I don’t understand something they will explain it to me in detail. But if I have math homework and I can’t figure something out, finding a way to by using one of the best apps I’ve ever used. Yes I can ask my teacher the next day in class but I like math because you have a chance to be assertive, I wanna find the answer out my myself and using an app helps me do so. ⭐️ So I would like to propose an idea that would allow however many days that you decide, free to see the work answers. I don’t use the apps a lot so I don’t know if you do that already, or if u have the app free over the summer (because one summer years ago I used it for IXL on the computer) but I would like for that to be a thing. Maybe 2 days out of the month? Twice every month or so and you have notifications telling when the next free date is coming up. Or per say you give us 4 days are free (and with a limited amount of 5 problems that day). So we can choose our own day to use our free “Tap to view tutorial” with an AD or something? That would be very much appreciated😊. ⭐️ But otherwise please keep up the good work in finding more solutions and better answers to problems, I would love to see something of my proposal come into play so I can do my homework much easier. I do use Photomath as well but I prefer mathway 😉. I give this an easy 5 stars 👌🏽👌🏽

1/5All it does is give the answer
Seriously saying, this app is literally just useless unless if you know the answer to math problems and want to check your answers. Otherwise, paying wouldn’t be a consideration for me. For those who are on a tight budget, and have a strong desire to reach their future career, I’d say paying wouldn’t be worth it, especially if you are just doing a living only as a student with no career and if you do not have enough financial support. I’ve lived a long way with this app studying all day and all night and yet there is high demand for paying just to get the work shown to get the idea why a question is answered in a certain way. This is why nowadays I read reviews from various books titled for math and read books that give a full explanation of how an answer is earned. As a life lesson it’s just good to say the fact that spending is not worth it for this app since there are various places and apps to ask questions related to learning math (at least in my area). This app should be like a substitute teacher or tutor for those who are having trouble, but the fact that there is such huge fee just ruins the reason why I should install this app. Teachers ask for showing work, and yet I’m stuck, having no idea what to do to get the right answers. This also goes to understanding how an answer is caught as well.

4/5It works but the full version hasn’t for me
I have been using this a lot this semester so I decided to pay for the monthly subscription then I could cancel the membership at the end of the semester, but it doesn’t even work. The subscription shows in my subscriptions list in my settings but I still can’t view the steps, and when I attempt to see how the problem is solved it brings me to the menu to subscribe to the paid part of the app. Honestly though, other than that. This app works pretty great, solves problems the right way and you can select the method of how you want the problem solved. You can change what kind of math you are trying to solve, and the answers are pretty spot on. The predictive text is even really good on this, it’ll help solve word problems and you kind of don’t em have to type anything in sometimes. However, the keyboard is very buggy and you can’t type very fast. It’s also kind of hard to navigate as there are like 4 different keyboard menus to choose from, I always forget where to find things and it kind of takes a while to load the text sometimes. But it does solve the problems.
