Steps useful but missing Math Photo CaptureThis WolframAlpha app is useful for the ‘brief’ step-by-step solutions and advanced keyboard. This seems sufficient for the parent / school student use. (The subscription version would have more detailed intermediate steps) However, the additional $1 in-app purchase to analyze / recognize images is not directly useful for school math as it simply cannot recognize any math expressions. Almost any math app these days let you take pictures of math (Socratic, MS Math, Symbolab, Photomath, etc)- so this is a serious omission for a company with one of the best math engines. So the pro version is not as useful without this photo feature. In fact, you tend to use the other apps first to get the photo based math solving quickly and only use this app with a copy-paste of the problem using LaTeX if you need ‘steps’..Kalaga1Version: 2.0.8

Problem with Functioning -Update problem resolvedThis is an update to a previous 3-star rating. I was having an issue with this application after downloading iOS 14.4 for my iPad Pro. When I would enter a query it would show the computing message and the moving line but would not retrieve the data. It would eventually stop. This acted very much like my older iPad when its iOS could no longer be updated and this app would not run on it. After my 3 star evaluation, I received a note from a developer. In the meantime, I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it and it began functioning again. I have used this app in the kitchen nearly everyday for several years as I am working on creating gluten-free versions of family vintage recipes. I have found the data I need for converting from volume to weight measurements using this app. It is also great for calculating the nutritional values of the recipes..TiHs2018Version: 2.0.8

Excellent but with a few rough spotsThe app is a fantastic tool for all sorts of tasks and problems - especially those related to STEM - and could be considered an “all-purpose calculator” of sorts. There are a few rough spots though: 1) Some annoying bugs. 1a) It seems that the app is unable to correctly interpret some prompts despite the website handling them fine. 1b) There also appears to be a bug where pressing buttons like “more” to get more information only work once and then lock you into the original results otherwise. Not sure how common this is but it’s an issue for me. 2) Some features to be desired. 2a) Interactivity with 3D plots would be nice. 2b) For pro users a keyword or option to automatically allocate more runtime when needed would be a great quality of life improvement (and more efficient?). 2c) Some more minor quality of life issues that I know exist but can’t think of at the moment. Despite these problems, the app is still extremely useful (and fun, for nerds like me at least). I use it quite often and it usually gives me everything I need and more. There is some room for improvement but overall it’s an excellent software!.KcleonardVersion: 2.1.3

Amazing but could use workThis has everything. If you frequently use google or Wikipedia just use this instead it is so useful for such a wide variety of things, I use it mostly for STEM applications which it is amazing at. They added a camera feature which I begged for and I’m glad my pleas were answered it was definitely worth the $5. But here’s where it falls short, I still have apps like mathway because this does not accept mathematical input from images which I NEED in daily use. This would be the only math app I’d ever use if that was a feature. There is text recognition so I don’t think this is far out. Please add this and superb job on the app it’s absolutely amazing and worth the money..Mike_056Version: 1.8.5

IncredibleThis app is amazingly good for STEM majors (science, technology, engineering, math). It is not a search engine like google as some of the other reviewers seem to believe. If you want to know what it’s like, the website by the same name is almost identical. Paying for the app lets you see step-by-step solutions to math problems, but does not give you access to the website’s same premium feature. You should know the step-by-step solutions are sometimes not helpful (e.g. often uses reduction formulas to solve trigonometric integrals, when students are generally taught to use those as a last resort). Still an amazing app though. I think many people that would like it would be content with just the free part of the website..~chrisw~Version: 1.8.1

Best Search Engine/ Research App Ever!This app is honestly better than Google. It has information on everything I need instantly, without looking through multiple web pages to no avail. It’s so easy to get any research I may need for school. And, it’s not biased in any way. They do not promote any political party over the other. What I’m getting is unbiased acts only - you won’t get that from any web browser! Overall, this app is 100% worth the price and is incredibly useful for anybody who needs to quickly search something and get answers fast. It makes homework so easy, giving step-by-step solutions. I would recommend this app to everybody. Thank you WolframAlpha!.Tehya37Version: 2.0.9

Wolfram Alpha for teachingI’m a community college professor of mathematics, and I use the WolframAlpha app to enhance my teaching online and in-person. I use WolframAlpha on my iPhone, Ipad, and my MacBook Pro. With the new Apple silicon M1-pro Chip, I am now able to do all the awesome calculations on my MacBook Pro with the WolframAlpha App that I only used to do on my iPhone. With my new Liquid Retina display, the math work is displayed as beautiful and precise as ever. I don’t allow WolframAlpha on exams and it’s very easy to check when you require students to show hand-written work and not computer work. The steps students take by hand in solving Calculus problems is very different from steps in WolframAlpha..AzerbyjonVersion: 2.0.12

Masters degree in your pocketAnyone who gives this ap less than five stars is an ignorant fool. Absolute must have for anyone seriously committed to mathematical education by actually learning the material and actually working through textbook problems. This ap basically gives you the ability to automatically factor polynomials as you develop proofs thereby getting you to the end result step by step. Not for fools this is a tool for learning and man aid to developing formal proofs by allowing you to troubleshoot each step as you go without having to constantly reference tables of identities. Basically an abstract algebra calculator much cheaper than their full product Mathematica..IgotsuckeredbythisappVersion: 1.8.1

Sometimes problematic, but generally great...I’m really glad I got this. My professor, for whatever reason, wants all solutions in y=mx+b format, but then assigns us a book that has the solutions in the back in Ax+By+C=0 format. Sometimes, it’s obvious that my solution is the same as what’s listed. Other times, it’s really not. This app helps me to check if I’m right or not and walks me through the steps to solve equations so I can see where I went wrong if my answer was incorrect. Sometimes it doesn’t understand my input. I really don’t find the input suggestions in the app to be helpful — they’re not specific enough. I wish that aspect of things were fixed. Otherwise, it’s a great resource..Sky_blue02Version: 1.8.3

Improve 3D graph viewingIt would be really nice if you could type in a 3D function to graph and be able to manipulate the graph with multitouch. WolframAlpha is an amazing product. It’s right up there with IBM Watson and other incredible feats of computer science that I can have such a versatile and useful knowledge resource on my phone. Which makes it that much more shocking that you only get a single view of a 3D graph with whatever range and graph angle that Alpha chooses for you. Make a button to go into a detailed graph viewer. I don’t understand what is stopping Wolfram from implementing this. I hope that they read these and incorporate feedback into the product..Bsg39Version: 1.8.1

Love this app butI have been using this app for years. Seeing the “go pro” come up with having advanced solutions, i decided to try it out. Did an in app purchase for a subscription based purchase and still keep getting asked in app to upgrade to pro. I hit restore purchases and i get a quick screen “thank you for your purchase” and again i go into the step by step solution and it is giving me “Basic solution” and having the pop up at the bottom AGAIN! “Go pro now”. I have cancelled the subscription immediately and now writing this review. Seems like some bugs here that need to be fixed.....ArewdeeVersion: 2.0.7

Brilliant, period.Without question, this app deserves a place on the home screen of anyone who occasionally needs a thorough answer to a technical question. What’s more, WolframAlpha is a dictionary, a fast calculator, a mathematics teaching tool, a de facto tutor, a superior substitute for Photo Math, and a great place to type in numbers for copy/pasting in other apps. If they’d add 3D Touch support, I will deem this app truly flawless. The service could use a spell check enhancement, but if you know how to type, you should be fine..ThehiltyfamilyVersion: 1.8.2

MATH 126 Online? Go For It With This AppI made the mistake of taking trigonometry over an online course. So there I was, with no instructor to teach me what I didn’t understand. I was failing miserably when I sought out a tutor…Then, my old high school Geometry teacher told me about Wolfram Alpha. It is, hands down, the best application I’ve ever spent money to access. It was only 1.99 when I bought the app in 2016. I passed Trigonometry with a solid B thanks to the way this app breaks down the work and lays it all out for you. Thanks, devs. You guys are the real heroes..SaphiraVatraVersion: 2.0.10

Subscription warning is bogus!!I use the free version of wolfram alpha online all the time. It does NOT break down the step by step procedure... for just 3 dollars this App DOES break it down step by step. So then there IS a huge difference between the free online version and this paid app. Again, for 3 dollars you will see the step by step breakdown for the math solutions... that’s a great price even though the subscription apparently gives you even more in depth breakdowns etc. This App IS definitely worth 3 dollars, other people are confused!!.Hawk327Version: 2.0.7

Ignore the 1 starsI recommend that people ignore the one star reviews, those people have no idea how to use the app. They think this is some search engine like google but it’s more suited for running calculations. If you’ve heard of Mathematica and know what the wolfram alpha website is then you are basically getting full support with this app for peanuts compared to what the website charges. It’s not as mathematically powerful as Mathematica but for running quick calculations on the fly, this is indispensable..R1kid07Version: 1.8

WowThis is seriously an excellent app. It may seem confusing to use at first but once you have figured out how to use the notations and how it works it is actually incredible. While you do have to pay for it, I still recommend buying it. Having one of the worlds best calculators in your phone is amazing. Finding limits, graphing, solving logarithms, anything is easy with this. Seriously a must have for any high school to college math student. Thank you WolframAlpha.WeekifVersion: 2.0.8

New update made accounts/pro literally unusableI love this app/program, but this new update made the app literally unusable for me. I tried to contact their support, but long story short, this review is the only other way I can think to contact them. The issue: the app works perfectly fine until I try to sign into my account, then the screen sits on loading for minutes and after you’re “signed in” literally nothing, not any query, your account, or even app information will load. DO NOT GET THIS UNTIL THE ISSUE IS FIXED IF YOU INTEND TO USE PRO. This is a major issue that needs to be fixed immediately.123468994324Version: 2.0.8

It’s Like Google for S.T.E.M!!This should be in the hands of every child. It is amazing to see the diverse data when searching topics in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math. As a software architect, I plan to use the Wolfram Alpha API (Application Programmer Interface) and the Notebook API to build an Augmented Reality app. As a father, I want to build something useful for kids of all ages and grades. The goal will be to help them navigate this data to learn, discover and create. The in-app purchase to make the input accept images as well as text made me smile from ear to ear. I literally felt like a kid again, building a machine with the add-ons. They are totally worth it! Even with all the troubles we have in this world, I have not been this excited about the future as was when I saw the power I have in my hands right now..PritchslapVersion: 2.0.7

Name search crashGenerally, this app is stellar. Sometimes interpretation of search term can be unusual. But, certain name searches will crash the app. For example: Dana, Gerald, & Michael, to name a few. The search starts okay. Then the app crashes and a black screen appears. On an iPhone 6+, the device reverts to Home after the black screen. Even restarting the device or doing a name search hours or days later results in a crash. Lastly, the iPhone was checked out to be 100% at an Apple store..Max the MikeVersion: 1.8.1

Best App for Computation Processes and so much more!I’m a long time user of this app, and regret not rating it until now, although I have recommended it to fellow tutors and students in person and in online forums. I saw how this app was one of the first math apps to include the step-by-step operations of problems in Algebra I through Calculus III, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. And yet it offers so much more in the other sciences and even English vocabulary. I hope you’ll check this app out. It’s worth it and then some..Katyaggie99Version: 2.0.7

The Worlds Best ToolThis answer engine is the most amazing reference to search for truth and fact. Absolutely brilliant! I use it for my children with homeschooling and for my own self as I grow, heal and learn through life, and I use it for inspiration for my creative endeavors and spiritual questions. Wolfram Alpha is the biggest gift to the world and we should leverage this tool to figure things out and heal ourselves and the world. Thank you! 🤟❤️✌️.Michelle AnschellVersion: 2.0.7

Great for schoolI use this app for school and it works great for math and stuff like that it will give the answers for most algebra and pretty much any simple math questions. Mathway is better if you need the steps to “show your work” but its a significantly more expensive app thats paid annually or monthly. Wolfram has a one time payment for the paid version so if your a student I would recommend it for sure..CodyjoeofficialVersion: 1.8

Majorly HelpfulUsing this app for my college physics and calculus classes and it is a huge help. Gives more information on subjects and explanations than I can find on any other math calculator or search engine. I highly recommend for anyone with lots of questions that normally nobody understands! Also, I love the depth of information and intuitive view given on EVERYTHING.

Great Overall AppI’ve been using wolfram Alpha online for quite a while now. This app is perfect for me. It lets me use the full capabilities of Wolfram Alpha on my iPad along with step by step solutions at no extra charge. If you don’t want the mobile experience and step by step solutions you can use the web version on Safari for free, but in my opinion the three dollars is definitely worth the price..KeroseneMainframeVersion: 2.0.5

Superpowers in your hand!Amazing program! What do you want to know, or what do you need to solve?

Subscription is a COMPLETE waste of moneyThe app was working completely fine before i bought the pro version. Now, all it does when i write in a problem is say ‘computing...’ and after waiting, it’ll say ‘the request timed out’. So now after buying the full app, not only can i not get the step by step solution it promised, but also an actual answer. I suggest you get the app, it is very useful, but the pro version is actual garbage, and definitely not worth your money or time..ImwarningyousirVersion: 2.0.8

So much information and computation easily accessibleAs a physics and chemistry teacher, I routinely use Wolfram Alpha Pro in my classroom to help my students on projects with their data analysis. Such an amazingly wonderful tool for anyone with an interest in calculation and data analysis, or anything else in general. Getting the Pro version was worth every penny. Keep up the great work! Sincerely, Grateful science teacher.WatscrickVersion: 2.0.0

By far worth the moneyI'm a student who just is taking college classes instead of high school ones and this is a lifesaver. It will not only give you the answer, but a step-by-step guide to getting to that answer. Definitely a must buy for any students but calculus students especially. It will do everything from solving systems of equations to solving complex limits..GravyfamilyVersion: 1.7.3

Lucky me!Looks like this crackpot hit the jackpot. I’m telling you (and you know who you are) you can keep the propagating these anomalies. There’s definitely data within the background noise. I don’t mean to make anyone jealous, however I just can’t contain myself. Simple rules producing seeming random complexity. All the richness life has to offer. The app? Yeah, it’s cool, too. Thanks for hanging in there with me on this review..EdBoy63Version: 2.0.5

Excellent tool for studentsI’m going into high school and I’ve used this app for both 7th grade (Algebra) and 8th grade (Geometry). It has helped me immensely in regards to understanding graphing and geometric concepts, as well as in other projects, like programming. I’ve used Wolfram Mathematica in the past, mainly on Raspberry Pi. Most of the functionality of Mathematica is transferred over to this app (and for a mere $3!!). I can’t recommend this app enough!.RaptorGuy04Version: 1.8.2

Just because you thought it would find you memes...Folks, this is the most advance tool you will ever have access to. The ‘questions’ this app can answer are simple limitless.

Best data appBetter than Google for most questions I have. Not just math. Want to know how the Sahara compares size-wise to the US? Avoid Google unless you really want to start being inundated with ads for travel agencies and expedition pants. Wolfram Alpha is my go-to app for data questions. Never tried it for philosophy, but I wouldn't be surprised to get those answers, too..Patrickdallas416Version: 1.7.3

Very usual tool for just about anything you can think ofThis is a must have app for people that need answers to just about anything, quick and fast. It doesn’t have answers for everything but about 90% of the time it’s spot on with what I need. Definitely recommend.Jp0692Version: 2.0.12

Nice idea, less powerful than the online version.I use this to just do sanity checks of definite integrals as I work. The app constantly computationally-times out before it can produce the result I need. However, the website has no problem analyzing the same quantity. I find myself coming back to this app less and less as it doesn't seem to handle very basic mathematical. I highly recommend the website. Especially since this is not a free app..Tony.guerraVersion: 1.7.3

Mixed feelings about this appThis is a review as a hobbyist; I’m not sure how well this app would be suited for professional use (it’s definitely priced for that use, though). I’ve used the WolframAlpha app and website for many years and always thought it was a good start, but could be so much better. It has not advanced the way I thought it could, however AI (generative transformers) have and are making apps like this obsolete..SOU812Version: 2.1.3

FantasticI cannot recommend this app strongly enough. I am semi-retired, work a minion-type job (to stay busy) and I am always thinking Great Thoughts, a process requiring the occasional small datum. I regularly access this app for information and it has yet to fail. Even if the answer is not exactly what I am looking for, it creates other pathways to pursue the answer..The Rock LookerVersion: 1.7.3

It's worth the three bucks.The app doesn't give you useless data, making it a streamlined way to search for random questions that enter your head. The user has to be able to construct good keywords, because he quality of input determines the quality of output. Overall, my new favorite way to look random stuff up..Shea WadmanVersion: 1.7.3

Lots of practical uses within the appIt has tools to help you, whether you are studying economics to physics to data science. The natural language processing allows for many questions to be asked and lots of information can be provided from a simple search. Very useful application..GlenProVersion: 2.0.11

Saved my Calculus GradeThe fact that I can use the app to see step by step solutions for only a fraction of the price to see them on the website is GODSEND. Unfortunately I downloaded this app near the end of my class and I only wish I’d thought to do it earlier. Highly recommend for checking your work for integrals and derivatives..Moonfairy65Version: 1.8.3

A student’s or a lifelong learner’s best friendI’ve been using this app, off and on, on the web and now through my iPhone for a long time. I cannot stress how important this app is.

Not as good as I'd hopedInteresting app, but I'm having problems asking the question to get results. I also got the second party guide. Trying to find "Philips Vue lights" ( without the quotation marks), for instance, tends to break up the words and ask which word I want to look up. This does not get me shopping advice (as it is supposedly should) - just definitions of each word. Some queries are easy ( eg. "Highest Montain" gets to detailed info about Everest), but even after watching several videos and reading the guide I can't always get the expected results. I'm hoping to learn more about how to ask the question properly, but I wish there was a help area in the app itself that could help. Siri seems like to understand questions better than this app. When a search brings up a picture it's often very small and you can't zoom the screen or make the picture larger. Overall, it's a good app but it still needs some upgrading..ChapterableVersion: 1.7.3

WolframAlpha Classic Negative Reviews

!!! Subscription Warning !!!I would have give this app 5-star a couple months ago. However, I was only able to give it 2 (I originally want to give it 1, but at the mercy that it helped me a lot in the past). I paid for this app many years ago as it can request longer computation time and show step-by-step solution than the web version. However, this additional feature is curtailed after a recent update, and there is practically little difference of using this app now and the web version (maybe the UI is a little bit cleaner and user friendly, but remember this is a paid app, and now you have to pay for the subscription to use those features as you do with the web version). If this app is not for free, PLEASE DON’T BUY IT !!! Use the web version and it doesn’t cost you anything, your one-time payment makes no difference. If this is app is free, I would wish them to refund my money back, and I will probably give it a 4-star..As GUI..Version: 2.0.4

Good information + Bad Subscription = WolframAlphaGood information + Bad Subscription = WolframAlpha Please value the early adopters who supported WolframAlpha in the beginning by purchasing the app. The switch to a subscription model that limits the information available (i.e., step-by-step problem solving) is a bit disappointing to those who find mathematics interesting and paid to support the app. I used to be excited because app updates used to be upgrades. But like so many others, WolframAlpha has downgraded the app by pushing a subscription. I keep auto-update off all the time now since so many apps get worse each update. 😕 If you don’t mind forking over money each month via a subscription, then WolframAlpha is nice. If you just occasionally like to play with numbers, I can no longer recommend it..Island LifeVersion: 2.0.6

Needs easier design and Apple Watch interfaceSearching with this app should render some great results based on what Wolfram Alpha's website states. Yet, it is not easy to search for information or get results that help to enhance my life. It seems like it requires a certain way to speak to it, in order to get a certain usefulness. While that may seem great for certain cases, putting the customer at the center of the product's usefulness will greatly enhance its reach and potential. I feel there is some real limits with this app. Especially with the inability to get detailed information using Siri and from Apple Watch. The app just isn't intended to provide a usefulness. You would think that chatbots would help to make the user experience even easier. But that may point to the lack of the company's willingness to play with creative ideas in expanding its usefulness..Hoorayberet00Version: 1.7.3

Give me back my privilegesPaid for this app years ago when it was just starting out on the app store. Always had access to full step-by-step solutions, as detailed in the description for the [then] paid version. Recently updated and got downgraded to basic privileges. What a slimy thing to do, the developers have no respect for those who helped get them off their feet. Since they replied to another review saying the same thing, let me say this to the devs: I will change my review back to 5 stars if you *choose* to make things right. If my review is still 1 star while reading this, then steer clear of the subscription and just use the free version — I paid and got downgraded anyways, so you might too. 100% comes back down to greedy devs, do better. I’ll bet my bottom dollar they’ll ignore this review too. So disappointed.Screw nicknamesssssssssssssVersion: 2.0.7

Turned uselessI paid for the app years ago and understand the need for devs to monetize their work, but since I’ve used it so little I’ve hardly realized much value. For those of us who actually paid for the app initially, the ability to “go back” and see step-by-step solutions for say, the first X queries would be appreciated. I don’t need more than that. I recently discovered something was missing when I was sure this thing provided solving info and checked the reviews and discovered it had been changed. No need to keep this in its current form when I can just go to the website..LAX20531Version: 2.0.7

A reviewThe last paragraph is my previous review. With this app switching to a subscription model, it makes me think, why should I? There are plenty of free options out there and I probably to write my own app that does everything this app use to do without a pesky need for a subscription. This app has become a complete waste of my money and time. 1 star for basic functionality. WolframAlpha is a product that's a throwback, in a good way, to database searches. As long as the user sticks to keywords, the experience is enjoyable, and direct. There are search examples to learn from. Wolfram isn't going to be like google; but, if you know your keywords, it can be a lot more useful..YaarotiVersion: 2.0.4

Took my money now telling me i need to subscribe for the same features I already paid forI already paid you guys my money for the app. You took away my access to it and now telling me I need to Pay for a subscription. GIVE ME BACK MY MONEY THEN!!! What did I pay you guys for the first time? How can you take my money and then take away the product that I paid for. This should be illegal. If you buy a pair of shoes and then Nike makes a subscription service they dont take the shoes away that you already paid for. This is absolutely ridiculous and I will never trust this company or their products every again. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!!!.Shun5Version: 2.0.2

Don't waste your expectationsI wouldn't guess in 3-4 weeks why it has high ratings, does really nothing, and I'm not even saying better or different from regular search, gives you some silly mostly useless stat. Furthermore, inputting can't perform any 2- or multiple-word search, if its not already inputted I mean, gets you an error with mean options to choose one of words from many inputted, combine couple and you get error again. Several other things, not even worth mentioning, no zoom, etc. And, its pricey too and in-app purchases to add photo check, etc. Not worth having on your phone, I'm deleting it.SNOWMAN12213Version: 1.7.3

Requires Internet ConnectionI didn't realize this app requires an internet connection to be useful. Sure, it can do simple stuff like 1+2=3 without an internet connection. But I can do that in my head. I thought I would be able to use it to calculate derivatives and integrals offline, when I don't have access to the WA website. That would have been useful and I would deserve a 5-star review. But the simple fact that it needs an internet connection is kind of bogus. I can just pull up the WA website whenever I have an internet connection, why should I use this app??.RishiduttVersion: 1.7.3

GarbageApparently this turned into some kind of graphing calculator that does your homework for you when I wasn’t looking. Stephen Wolfram had this TED talk where he claimed this was something else entirely. That’s why I paid around $5 for this, but it has NEVER done what was claimed. Now it’s marketed as some kind of homework cheating machine, I guess. I still wish it was the thing that Stephen Wolfram got up on stage and lied about. Every once in a while I think just maybe it’ll actually do that and I try. Nope! So I come here to recreate this grumpy review which gets repeatedly deleted when they update the app..MetallurgicarboristVersion: 2.0.7

Very outdatedMany things are not there. For example, can’t inform me about anything related to Machine Learning, Data Science or even Gestalt Theory. It doesn’t return anything related to Settlements in Palestine. I found my free friend Google a much better aid in my research..PurestoneVersion: 1.7.3

Requires Internet connection :(Useless without internet.ItisastealVersion: 2.0.8

Doesn’t work on iPad with Pro AccountBuying this was a waste of money. Takes an eternity to login, doesn’t show results, can’t even see any of them. It just doesn’t work. I bought this to have ease of access to my pro educator account, but the web app does that already. This iPad app was a waste of money..ZushauqueVersion: 2.0.8

No step by step solutionsWhat happened to the step by step solutions? Why does this requires a subscription now?!.Joe7830Version: 2.0.7

Goodbye, money grabber! Deleted the app.Nice update to bring the feature of subscription. Bought and use this app for years, but deleted it today. This app not improved much during years but starts seeking money from customer. Good bye..SkipsoulVersion: 2.0.4

ScamCompletely waste of money.i wish i could give it zero star..AbrjoVersion: 2.1.3

Not worth the money without a pro subscriptionScam is the first word that comes to my mind: Same features as the free version or the web version! I was hoping by paying I’d be able to upload Mathematica files for computation. Alas, it doesn’t allow uploading files from your device. I asked about “comoving distance” and it doesn’t provide any definition or clarification, yet it does output that value in examples of cosmology. Google + any other free algebraic computing system, e.g. Sagemath, can do the same if not more..Ma2681Version: 2.1.0

Not User FriendlyThis is not user friendly. Purchased it for only 1 reason, and I can't make heads or tails out of this app. Instructions would have been helpful..FritzmomVersion: 2.0.9

Pro issuesI’m frequently unable to sign in to the app or the site. Step by step solutions won’t load, hang infinitely, or tell me to sign in when I have or when I’m unable to. I pay for the service, so to have it frequently unavailable is disappointing..SdokingVersion: 2.0.8

Not worth it for mathsThe picture system is busted. Symbolab is a better alternative for me personally. FOR MATHS USE !!! I have not used the other functionalities.Super Mario CrashVersion: 2.0.8

Not working greatWon’t compute certain integrals on the app but when I type in the exact integral the same way on the website, it works.Sarah with the marinaraVersion: 2.0.7

App No Longer OpensThe app immediately crashes as soon as I click on the app to open it. The app worked perfectly before, but now I can’t even access it..NeoShadowXVersion: 2.0.5

Horrible updateServes me right for updating apps. They will always find a way to try and squeeze more money out of you. Now the steps to the solution have random blue boxes that hide answers and prevent you from seeing steps. I’m sure the Pro version clears it up right? I already paid for this app, it’s disgusting that Wolfram decides to screw us all over by trying to charge more for functions that previously existed. Sleazy bait and switch. What a shame..AjaytechVersion: 2.0.2

New version is trashThe new version sucks, now you have to pay way more in order to get step by step solutions. It's now a monthly subscription where in the previous versions it was a one time payment..Tha00BossVersion: 1.8.5

Sometimes usefulThe handful of topics that it knows about are reasonably covered, but it doesn’t know about very much..Aspiring TunaVersion: 1.8.5

Ugly and slowThis is a terrible app. It’s poorly designed, returns results ridiculously slow and overall just a major disappointment. Would not recommend considering the price..Vincent.gVersion: 1.8.2

Removed the step by stepI bought this app because the reviews said that it featured step by step for solving equations, which was true for a short while but they removed it, rendering this as a fancy calculator but no longer a good study aid. Id give it a bit of a higher note for the encyclopedia part but it usually crash after a few second on my admitedly deprecated iphone5.Mathstudent346Version: 1.8.1
