Freaking. Life. Saver.
Perfect for adaptive quizzing!! Saving yourself time looking up answers to some random question from the caption of a picture in a random textbook isn’t cheating. :) Busy work, no more! Used it for the first time tonight - half asleep and I remembered I had an assignment due in a couple hours. The assignment was an adaptive quiz where you had to answer questions until you “leveled up”. I didn’t have to spend hours answering the same kinds of questions over and over and wasting time looking up answers in the book so it didn’t hurt my percentage. I scan the question, and while it is searching (only a few seconds), I would answer the question on my own. Submit if I guessed it right, and change it if I guessed wrong. Saves so much time because once you answer, the rationale is right there. Can’t believe I’m only not discovering this app... but I’m beyond thankful nonetheless. *EDIT: Obviously use the app wisely. Don’t substitute it for knowledge, and always verify your answers. The answers are pulled from Quizlet and like sources, that are made by students just like us. But if I know some tiny tidbit isn’t going to be on my professor’s exam, it can be a little hard to justify reading six paragraphs on the topic to try to find my answer. And here comes in - Socratic!

a literal lifesaver
I never leave actual reviews on anything, so let this be a testimony within itself hahahah. As a highschool Junior, I can attest that this is the best app ever. Thank you Google for making this free, it’s ridiculous that some apps charge students for a genuine learning experience. angle I was super skeptical of this app at first, when my friend recommended it. So skeptical that I downloaded it, but didn’t even open it until a year later. Now that I’ve been using it , I can’t believe survived 2 full highschool years without using it. I needed this app for Algebra 2 because I was not learning efficiently with my given course material, and failed in my sophomore year. I knew I needed to pass this year, but it was still a struggle to do without cheating. This app doesn’t just give me answers, it explains how to get them step by step not only so I can understand but so I can have proof if my teacher ask lol. I am passing all of my assignments so far, so the future is looking bring for me. As an online student, this is the best tool out there for anyone who cares about their learning. Algebra doesn’t scare me anymore thanks to Socratic, honestly. Try it, you won’t regret it.

Confusing and unable to answer questions
I downloaded this app to help me understand my math homework more when trying to makeup work that I missed. It works well with taking pictures and explaining, but it only explains simple questions or questions other people have asked. It works well for problems in like 1st-5th grade, but when you start to do middle school math with it, it doesn’t have the question you asked or it explains it in a confusing way. I had a question of “Triangle A has side lengths 2, 3, and 4. Triangle B has side lengths of 4, 5, and 6. Is Triangle A similar to Triangle B?” Similar meaning same angle measures and possibly different side lengths. It gave me an answer but not for my questions. Google Socratic gave me answers that had to do with right angles, side lengths, and the differences between types of triangles but not what I was looking for. I gave this app 4 stars because it’s a good app for younger kids learning math but not for middle and high school math. The app does not seem to understand the question or gives you the answer to a “similar” question when you ask for a question more than just a simple “_x_=_”. I hope Google can fix this because Socratic is a very easy and understandable app to use, it just doesn’t meet the requirements for explaining math to older students.

Socratic has your back!
As an upperclassman in high school: take my word for this - this app is amazing! As an AP/honors students I sure know what it’s like to not do assignments (due to tiredness, laziness, or legitimate reasons) or copy from friends the period before the assignment is due. I also know what it’s like to be an active user of Quizlet whenever I need to look up some test or quiz answers for reviews/studying or for straight up cheating (lol). But what we all know is that searching up each individual question on google and then having to go through several Quizlets to find the correct answers for each and every one can be quite time consuming and tedious. However, with this wonderful app it finds all the Quizlets for you in an instant by just taking a picture of the question! Even if Socratic can’t find an answer, it provides the user with at least a legitimate, scholarly definition of the subject matter of your question! In short, Socratic is a amazing and l totally recommend it to any type of student! Honestly, Socratic came through and helped me passed my finals this semester!

Greatest cheating app ever
When I was in high school, I was struggling with math, I didn’t know how calculus or inequalities work. I was failing class due to the teacher failing to teach us about the importance on how to do those equations. When I saw my friend use the app called Socratic, he really helped me and he told me “the teacher doesn’t do anything for us, that’s why I am cheating” and I agreed. Then he told me to get the app and I asked “what’s it called” he told me Socratic. I installed the app and it really helped me. The app helped my grade be gained by 67%, but there was a catch tho, the problem was it was prohibited by using the app due to it was called cheating, so I decided to using the app in secret, I didn’t get caught for the first 2 months and when I did, I only lost that small quiz not he whole entire grade. To conclude this review, I would personally recommend Socratic due to it really helps you with your work especially when your in school. Just don’t get caught or else u would lose more credits than gain credits.

Best app ever
I never write reviews for apps. In fact this is my first ever review for any app. However, I just had to write one for this app. This is the best learning app ever. Mark my words. The best ever. From science to math to English any subject you want this app will have it. From taking a picture to using the microphone to ask a question this app never fails! If you have a specific question sometimes it even pulls up flash cards that associate with that question giving you the exact answer! I love this app so much it never lets me down you should totally download this app. It even has 3 math apps into this so when you take a pic of a math equation it’ll search the answer through those 3 different apps. It’s like a 3 in 1! Download this app seriously it’s a game changer this changed my life. Thanks to this app I understand every material given to me in school. Thank you Socratic !

The update sucked
To whoever is reading this, you must be confused to why everyone is talking about why the update sucked, and what did they exactly update well here’s an explanation Before the update this app would both give you the answer but explain it in a way where you knew how to do the rest of the math problems you needed help with initially. I sometimes used it just for the answers, but most times it was because I had trouble with a specific problem. Some math problems got more complicated and to understand it I would use this app, it would go into a step by step process to make sure you, the user, understood how to do the problem. Sometimes it would provide links and would show you graphs so you fully understood. I also used it to check my answers to see if they were right. Now after the update you can’t really do any of that. It tells you how to do specific things but doesn’t show the step by step on how to do the problem. For example you could in put, 5+4-3, and it’d show you how to add and subtract but wouldn’t show you step by step what to add or subtract first. I used to love and recommend this app but this partnership and new update completely ruined the app for me.

Amazing
I love this app for so many reasons. I love that it gives you answers from different sources because certain sources give better explanations than other for certain problems. It’s really good at recognizing the text in a text book or my handwriting and I have really bad hand writing. It helps when I am doing a new type of problem and to make sure I am doing it right and if I don’t know how it can teach me how. It has helped me do so well in Algebra I. I just have one problem I recently got an iPhone X and now the app is all messed up. When you try to crop your problem it doesn’t do it right and it is all off center. It almost makes the app unusable. I understand the phone is still new and it takes time to update, but if you could do it as fast as possible it would mean a lot because I need this app. Thank you for making this amazing app it is far better than Photomath

Photomath v. Socratic
I love all things apps that help you handle real-life problems. That’s why I have an arsenal of homework, study, and scholarly apps, two of them being Photomath and Socratic Math and Homework help. I like both for different reasons Photomath- Photomath can do a lot of advanced equations and problems, as well as graphs. However, it does not possess the ability to do word problems. Socratic- Socratic can do math, history, science and English. All the other subjects besides, Socratic’s math can do word problems but not a lot of advanced equations. Both apps have the ability to scan, as well as give detailed instructions on how to actually do the thing they just gave you the answer for. They are both extremely valuable apps in my possession, and as a student with honors classes, I feel ready to face whatever my teachers throw at me. Thank you, Socratic and Photomath

Useless
I installed this app to see what it was for, after about a minute I wasn’t even sure it was running. I use a iPad Pro exclusively mounted in closed frame because I have grand Children and i need to exercise reasonable since their very young. Problem is that the frame is firmly mounted to my desktop, it doesn’t rotate. This app opens the camera and starts in portrait mode. The wall behind the iPad is very dark walnut and unlighted so the screen showed nothing at all which made it impossible to read anything or know what input it was waiting for. To proceed I would have had to unplug the iPad then disassemble the frame assembly just to take the iPad out [of the frame] to stand it on edge so I could read what was on the screen. This wasn’t going to happen, I have low tolerance for sloppy coding that couldn’t even check the environment it was running on and accommodate the screen orientation immediately. End of story, there were no proper startup checks and Am not tolerant of arrogant coding.

I love this up so much It’s so good for cheating I mean learning and developing my knowledge further than I ever would. I would 10 out of 10 recommend this app because it’s so easy to use and amazingly laid out. Not only does it give you the answers it says where they get them from which I think is incredible that I can go back and cite sources. The only thing I recommend is to. Oh wait there is nothing because this is the best app on the market and I should be getting paid for this review but hey I’m not. This app is also free and super easy to download. This app helps me and pretty much all of my classes. Getting my answers super easy I mean learning and readings to get my answers. Because if you see this teachers I’m definitely not cheating.... This app is definitely one of my favorite definitely recommend.

Surprisingly Awesome
I was a bit skeptical at first before downloading this assuming it was going to give inaccurate results like the other apps. I saw that this had good reviews and I decided to check it out myself to see what all the fuss is about .it turns out that taking a picture of a math problem can give you the results you need, including a step by step process that explains everything . I am very satisfied with this. Thank you so much for making this.i’ve been struggling with math lately and this helps a lot. So far so good I guess I’ll have to see if it can do the same with other subjects. UPDATE. This won’t necessarily work all math problems and will sometimes give inaccurate result. I would still recommend this either way and it’s still good, just some minor flaws.

College student life saver
I used to have this app back when I was in middle school before it was run by Google. However, I came back to it as I am now a student at my local university and I found that it has improved a lot since Google has taken over. Essentially this app is a central hub for all of the knowledge that can be found on Google including quizlets and random and useful facts. It is extremely helpful for taking quizzes and tests and also for actually learning things. However the only reason I gave it a four out of five is because it still isn’t perfect through no fault of its own. Unfortunately in my book a perfect five would have to mean that the app has all the knowledge that you need unfortunately it doesn’t but for me it’s the highest rating that this app could ever achieve. Would definitely recommend for anyone.

Amazing!!
I’m so impressed with this app! I had found another app before this and it wanted me to pay and I didn’t want to I eventually found this app and I am so pleased that it gives you the steps the answer and even Khan Academy! My school loves to suggest Khan Academy to help us if we need help and the fact that this app gives a video from Khan Academy really impresses me. I am so pleased with this app and suggest it for your child or anyone, so if you weren’t paying attention in class (please pay attention though) or your teacher doesn’t explain math the way your brain is able to comprehend it you can come on here take a picture of the problem and it will teach you anything! This app is a lifesaver and the best and most worth it app I have downloaded!!

OMG THE BEST
This is the most amazing app last night I totally forgot about math homework at 11:30 and really was just so tired and needed to sleep but really didn’t want to get a bad grade for not doing it. So I searched up math on the App Store and this popped up and I’m so glad it did. THIS IS LITERALLY A LIFESAVER it took me 6 minutes to finish 30 problems because this app is so amazing at showing you how to do the problem quickly and then giving you the right answer I got a %100 on the math homework. Not only did it give me the answer it helped me understand the problem more then my teacher could. I’m so thrilled that I found this new app!!!! Definitely download it. It doesn’t make you pay AT ALL for any answers or anything!!! It’s so amazing!!! %100 RECOMMEND!!!!

So amazing it actually made me EMOTIONAL
Im currently planning on taking Chemistry in the following year but decided to do a little work and learn a bit before hand before school starts so I am ready. As I was studying I was trying sooo hard to find the answer to this one question I had and it’s difficult because you don’t have a tutor and Chemistry is not the current class I’m taking so it would be difficult to ask my teacher, but I literally typed it in and the answer was there and SIMPLIFIED. ITS SO MUCH EASIER THAN SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET WITH ALL THESE DIFFICULT DEFINITIONS!! I got emotional because I have got so frustrated and worked on this one question for hours and now I just have a peace of mind that this app was created. Definitely recommend 10/10

The ReDesign is terrible + no step-by-step solutions
TL;DR at bottom (To long; Didn’t read) Let me first start this review saying how awesome Socratic used to be. Socratic used to work by letting you take a picture of a math problem and it shows you not only the solution, but the steps you take while solving the problem. Socratic is also searching other sites, although it uses a preloaded Cymath and Wolfram Alpha websites if you want to make sure your answer is right. Those also showed step by step solutions but Old Socratic had step by step solutions you could understand easily. Now let me tell you what this app is like to users (mainly kids) right now. Suppose you take a picture of a problem, like x^2 + 11x + 30. New Socratic does not give you the answer. It gives you the formula (ax^2 +bx^2 + c) and how to use the formula with using a b and c and not actual numbers, or the answer. If you want the answer you have to go on LITERALLY A SITE FOUND ON A GOOGLE SEARCH shown as u scroll down and wait for the website to load before finally getting your answer. Lots of hoops, not straight to the point like Socratic was before. This app is horrible and be prepared to lose a lot of users all because of update 5.0. Shame on you. TL;DR: Socratic does not help you in homework, nor does it give you the answer to your math problems. It just searches google and that’s it. Do not download this app.

Extremely Helpful!😁
Socratic is the most useful app I've ever used. I needed help with my homework having missed so many or days or simply just not understanding the lesson. I've tried so many apps but none seemed to give me the results I wanted, but then a friend recommended Socratic which changed everything. Not only was I able to get the answers I needed, Socratic provided examples of the problems and how I should work out my problems. It provided the answer, an explanation of how to work things out, an example of similar problems, a video that corresponded with the topic, and other sources such as Google while being simple enough for anyone to understand. Thanks to Socratic, my classes and homework have never been easier!

Best ever
Honestly this app helped me so much it solves word problems and regular problems with just a snap. Most math picture apps have taken forever to find a problem that is even close to the one you are trying to solve but this app takes only a second to find the specific problem and figure out the concept and how to explain it. Then it proceeds to tell you the steps it took to finding the answer and shows you helpful videos when trying to grasp the concept. It also shows you a web search of the problem and results that it thinks would help you. Overall this is the best app I have used so far when trying to solve a problem on my homework

A real life saver!
i’ve used socratic for 2 years now mainly for math. and i recently updated it to the newer version working with google and i found it much more difficult to use unlike the old one where i had the option type out in the keyboard or in a math keyboard. also, when i search up my equations, it doesn’t give me the solution of the given equation i searched. now, with the new update, when i choose to type down a question it only gives me the qwerty keyboard instead of the math keyboard. plus it doesn’t show me my solution on the problem i’m struggling on. please bring back the old solution and math keyboard feature! it really helped me pass!!! but overall, still a really good app! just bring back those features!

The Best App To All Questions
This app is literally one of the best app to all the questions! This app answer questions like: math, reading, history, science, things that happened million of years ago, etc. You can even take a picture of your worksheet and this app will scan it then answer your questions! Now don’t get me wrong, there may be a few questions that probably can’t be answered but that’s Okay, no app will answer LITERALLY EverY question you have. Once you get the hang of how to use this app, you’ll want to think about this app every time you have to answer questions! When people see me using this app, people always ask me “ WOW, what app is that called!” “I need that app for my questions!”

Every math problem I have submitted here has been read accurately with no numbers, variables, or operations wrongly captured like some other apps I have used. There was only one time I got a wrong answer from this app. It is easy and simple to use. Once you’ve taken a picture of the problem, the app will let you crop it according to your liking. The app will give you several different choices with answers and step-by-step instructions from multiple trusted math websites without leaving the app. I enjoy using this app and it has helped me with my a lot algebra homework. I would recommend this to someone looking for instant, accurate help for their math homework!

My teachers go super fast for every lesson. This is a LIFESAVER. GET THE APP. It is so helpful and gives you many options if you don’t understand their resources it gives you others along with videos you can watch and it’s very very very helpful. Especially if you have teachers like mine. I love how it’s super slow with you and gives you just a little more help on that subject. I definitely recommend this to anybody who doesn’t understand the subject or just want some more help or even learn something new. Answers if you need some and it comes it exclamation to and if you need to watch videos and that’s amazing the best FREE! Don’t miss out at all just stop and try it!

This app is poggers!
I have only used this app for 10 minutes, and it is absolutely amazing. Yesterday, I saw a TikTok that said it was a great app, so I downloaded it. Today, I was doing my math homework and realized this would be a great time to try it. I took a photo of a word problem, and it showed me a pdf of the answer key. (I didn’t use the key for the whole thing. I did the questions then checked my answers with the key, so I could teach myself if I was wrong.) Just for fun, I took a picture of my social studies homework. The app told me a few things about Ancient Greece, and boom. Pdf of the answer key. If you are a burnt out gifted kid or have piles of missing assignments, this app is for you!

This app is truly helpful
I'm in 8th grade and just switched schools for the second time this year. Today was my first day at my new school and I wasn't focused enough to understand what my teachers were going over in class ( AP algebra and AP physical science). I got home to do my homework and was stumped. I tried a couple times to get the answer to the first problem on my sceince work sheet, but it matched none of the answers given in the answer book (thank God for the answer box) so I opened up Socrati, which I hadn't used since 6th grade. I took a picture of the question, and up popped step by step instructions. I now fully understand the concept and can finish my homework. 👍

The best app on the market
First of all, I’d like to say that this app is the best thing I’ve ever come across. When I tell you it’s literally the only way I’m passing my math classes, I’m fully serious lol. It’s helped me to quickly learn math problems that I don’t understand how to do and gives explanations on how I can do them so I don’t have to spend hours trying to search for a video online that shows me what to do. It can instantly scour the internet for pdfs of homework that I’m doing if I need help on a question or need to check my answers. I swear to god this app literally has everything. And best of all, ITS FREE!!! I love free. Thank you to the app creators for saving my grades and my time, I recommend this app to all my friends now when they need help on things.

Socratic is great! BUT it could be GREATER.
Socratic is very helpful and helps on my homework approximately 85% of the time. I have been using the app for a little over two years now and don’t think I’ll be shying away from using it any time soon. I highly recommend it to anyone that would like some help with homework, whether it be from pre-k to the University level. Overall, my experience using Socratic has been phenomenal. The biggest problem with the app is that it doesn’t have the ability to capture full questions sometimes, and it also can’t read long questions. I see where the app can have trouble with that, but with today’s technology, I’m more than sure the app can be updated to fix this.

This app is amazing 👌👌 !! All you have to do is take a picture of the expression you want to solve and after Socratic will solve it for you .This app doesn’t just give you the answers ... it also shows you the step by step process ‼️ And also if Socratic does not find the answer then it will show up with other approved websites that might have gotten the answer . I really consider getting this app because this will prevent you forming having trouble with your homework and will help you understand if your teacher or professor didn’t make any sense to you . This app is also free so you might as well get it ... hope you enjoy it ☺️😉‼️

So far this app has been amazing I love it so much it helps me with tons of stuff it doesn’t just tell you the answers it also gives you a little paragraph explaining hue to do it and shows you websites and where to get more information about or to help you with the subject thus app doesn’t just give you answers to math questions as I thought that this app was only meant for that but it helps you and gives you the answers to history, science, and if you take a picture no your essay or narrative it automatically tells you where you need puntion it is a amazing app and if I told you any more thus paragraph would be so much longer

I was using this app for my math problems and it worked perfectly, but little did I know that it can be used for other subjects too!! I used this app on a very specific English question doubting it would work, but I COMPLETELY UNDERESTIMATED IT!!! It works so good and I use this app as much as I can, it gives you multiple websites for your answer and gives a detailed description so it makes sure you understand and best of all... ITS FREEE!!!!!!! Other apps like this you either have a month trial or pay before hand, but this app is the best of the best 5 stars and I recommend it to EVERYONE!!!!!!!! And if u don’t download this, your missing out ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Okay so when I first saw this app I was like this is probably just a scam or something but it look interesting. So I installed the app and I was like I hope this works , so after I saw the rating I was like okay I’m gonna need this cause I need a lot of help with my homework and the teachers send me like a binder full of homework. So I checked this out with a few questions I wrote on a piece of paper and I was like wow. 😮 This has almost all the answer, was so surprised and I was like I need to give this a five star I think you guys should also check it out helps a lot with test and homework’s and all that so I hope you guys enjoy this!

Pre Update was better...
Socratic was one of the apps that had my back throughout most of the tough problems I had during school. It was working fine, but the new update made all the good features of the app go away. One of my biggest uses for the app was to use the math keyboard, because it allowed for me to easily search for solutions to problems, but it seems that they seem to be more reliant on the photo taking feature now... The next issue I had was that there were no longer solutions to specific problems. If I went to socratic, it was usually to see an answer to a specific problem, and to see a solution. They seem to be leaning toward teaching the topics needed, instead of giving specific solutions. Lastly, the format of the app itself has gotten a lot messier. Weird purple gradients and smaller button sizes make the app more awkward to use, and more confusing for returning and new users alike. I hope that socratic will consider will consider bringing back some of it's older and most popular features. Even if it cannot come back completely to what it once was, I hope they consider bringing back some of the aspects that made it a great student friendly app.

Saved by Socrates
I teach middle school in Saint Petersburg Florida. I was hired, to go into every classroom, due to my education to step in up when the teacher slot was empty and teach until they hired a new teacher. Although I studied college algebra college trigonometry economics and other high-end mathematics,Not working with it for over 30 years. The Socrates app has made it possible for me to gather the math information that I need including helping me work problems, showing the problem solving in detail, giving me the rules, and generally being a great tutor. This is definitely an app that you want in your repertoire.

It helps me when I am stuck on a question mostly in math on bounce pages which is a app I use in my school it only helps on my pages related to common core or not written on but zi like that even if you wrote on it will solve what you crop in so cropping is a great tool Also I love that I can screen shot the ways it hints or shows you in pictures to show my teacher of there way and it’s shows sources to prove to teachers we aren’t cheating and if we are it’s not really though but if you do get caught just tell them this is a great helping app that can’t be used for cheating! Btw I love it that this app is for free and it can solve not just math answers but any subject you scan pictures of

Can't find flaws
Has everything I wanted and then even more things I didn't even know I wanted until I took a crack at this amazing app. You can tell they took there time to make this more than an cheat sheet it's aimed at helping teach and explain in any it can. The program runs smoother than butter and the app is so user friendly my grandmother could use it (not sure why my grandmother would be taking difficult school courses😂) all in all this app is great and I highly recommend it to all students needing a little nudge in the right direction in any of their classes. I'm Glad to have this wonderful app in my tool box!

Awesome app!😊😁
This is a really helpful app and really makes all my homework a lot easier. I have a ton of math homework that I get every night and this app is really helpful especially if I need to check my work or if I just forgot a multiplication fact. I was actually really impressed when I tried this on a word problem and it worked. I also love how after it finds the answer it gives you resources you can go to to help you understand the math even better and has a page of the step- by- step solution of it. Anyway, I would definitely recommend this app for all ages, and hope you enjoy it too!!! 😊😁😁

This is the best app ever
I have tried downloading other apps like this but they make you watch video or pay to get the answer. Socratic is nothing like that. It is amazing and helps me get my homework done. I’m so grateful of Socratic. I deserves its 5 star rating. I recommend this app for ANYONE!! Best app ever!!! CONGRATS TO SOCRATIC!! Actually I’ve never written a review before and this is my first. I’m glad my first review is on Socratic. They totally deserve it. Great job. My one question is, is hat maybe y’all could make one for sleeping or Language Arts? Or maybe some other common subjects in school. Just a suggestion. Love Socratic and I’m so happy I got it!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great App but There’s a Good Chunk Missing
I would give it 5 stars, but I feel like there is so much left out! It’s such a great app and helps with homework all around, but in the American History section, they do not include ANYTHING regarding Black History. The civil rights movement, black power movement, Black American Heroes aren’t there! Not even just Black History, but the Chicano Movement and Farmworkers rights. There’s so much that just isn’t there and it’s kind of disappointing. Google does all the doodles every month to acknowledge these people, but it takes a lot more. I submitted some feedback and not sure if they saw it, but here’s a review. Again it’s a great app and helps SO much, but there’s also a lot missing! 😊😕

Socratic Review
Not gonna lie didn’t believe the person that told me that there’s an app that just gives you all the answers for math homework. Was pleasantly surprised to not only see it gives correct and accurate answers, but also shows its work. The purpose to this is twofold. One: If your assignment or teacher requires you to show work for whatever reason, it’s all there for you. And Two, my person favorite, it actually helps you learn if you can see the problem and the answer worked out in front of you. And yes, I am trying to learn so i can eventually pass, that’s why I’m cheating in the first place.

Amazing app!
This app helps me check my work when I'm not so confident about my answer! I am in love on how you can use three options to search up your math problem. Such as ABC, Photo, and #s. I think the photo and number options are the most helpful and is amazingly easy to check your work. It also helps you understand a certain type of math you are trying to learn better by giving you hints. I hope to use this app more. Although sometimes I have difficulties camera. I can just use the ABC or # options! This is extremely helpful and vital to my learning. I would highly suggest this app!! ❤️😍❤️

annoying bug :(
when i first downloaded this app, it worked great and it always helped me with all sorts of classes but now when i try to take a picture of a problem it won’t find the right words, it’ll usually only sense an “r” or “*” so i always have to type it now which is very inconvenient for long problems :( plus when it senses the “*” their won’t even be one in the problem, idk it’s annoying but overall a good app UPDATE: i was reading reviews and it seems like other ppl are having this problem and it’s always after you’ve had the app for 4+ months , whyyyyy

Socratic is a God!
I never write reviews but my heart made me!! This app is so helpful... I’m in high school, Other apps such as Mathway or Symbolab are not really good because you need to pay. This app is ... (can’t explain in words) helps me with my hw and I got better at math only because of this by understanding. I don’t even have to search up tutorials in online and waste my time, but this app (everything is in here). Thank you developers for this such a wonderful app and helping out those who is in pain (LOL, but true). Please do reply developers... Will be eagerly waiting for your response.. which will make me happy... U know what I mean... :)

New update is a flop
This is an amazing app. When I needed to get some answers on problems I was stuck on, but as soon as you guys paired with google and changed the format things have been difficult. Scanning the questions always translates it into something that wasn’t written in the actual photo/physical paper. I try different angles and there are still many errors that I have to fix by hand. Although, this app is supposed to make things easier, it’s giving be harder time than before. Overall, the app is still helpful and makes life so much easier but I just hope the picture function improves more so I don’t have to fix the sentence every time I take a picture.

So much more than a search engine!!!
Socratic is such a life saver. Whenever I’m stuck on a question for homework (no matter which subject), I open Socratic. All you have to do is take a picture of the question (you can all type it if you would prefer) and it will show you an easy answer. My teacher assigned homework on something we hadn’t even done in class and I was so desperate for help. I remembered hearing about Socratic and decided to try it. I ended up finding a website through Socratic that explained it to me. It’s so much more than your typical google. It is a must-have for any student!

The best of the best
I have never heard of this app before, but once I have set my eyes on it. It like a teacher teaching me step by step the equations but on your phone. Thanks to this now I can solve and have the answers of any maths or science problems😍. I feel so smart suddenly. It gives you multiple ideas on how to get your answers before it does the answers will be right there and all u have to do is write it down step by step. And boom 💥 no more suffering. But I advise you to also learn something from it if you don’t understand than try and do it by yourself and go to compare ur answers to theirs.

This app is actually a blessing
Ok so I was on my way to download Photomath (because there’s less than 15 days left of school and ya girl is just not trying anymore.) and I find this gem. I downloaded it after seeing the reviews and was hoping that it actually worked. And I just gotta say, THIS APP IS AMAZING. It’s honestly such a help and all of the resources and hints it provides are VERY helpful. Even though I was just downloading this app to get homework answers, I ended up really liking it and it can DEFINITELY be used to help understand the subject better. I recommend this app to anyone who is struggling and you will NOT regret it.
