Don't bother with the app as it is currently. The default keyboard is pretty bad compared to most custom keyboards out there. Pressing the back button closes the app instead of going back? For some results it gives me the measurements in feet and inches; I can't recall if it was possible on the site, but you'd expect an app to be a tailored experience. What use is it to give me units I don't know? I went for a refund. I wanted to support Wolfram, but not by paying for a shite app. The website works just fine on mobile, I'll just use that.

Luke M

Honestly, for a paid app, it's really bad. The custom keyboard (that you can't switch from if your Android doesn't feature a "Menu" hardkey) is overly large, clunky, and lacks haptic feedback. It was obviously built around the time of Android 2.X and never really updated significantly, and now every query just returns "Failed to parse" instantly, even with a good data connection.

Devin Samarin

Great computing service, terrible user experience. Save your money, the mobile version online works way better. There's no loading indicator for new queries and layouts are misaligned on the Google pixel XL.

Stas M

Constantly crashes. Keyboard barely responsive. Seems like the app is updated once a year if we're lucky.

Miguel Ballard

Please update the aesthetic to android 5.0/lollipop. Also please allow the use of our regular keyboard. The current ui looks like shite

Derek Matuszewski

I love the search engine but the app is very dated and needs to be updated to meet Android's be standards. How can such an advanced search engine have such a horrible app.

Smart and intuitive Picked this up using google rewards credit, good buy. It's also helpful outside of math, I haven't used it for anything math related yet and I still find it coming in handy. I pair it's info with Google to provide context and it's very clever.

Prafulla Kumar March 20, 2016

Very nice app... Amazing indepth data... About almost any thing! I am stunned by its accuracy and it's coverage... All conceivable aspects about a topic are touched... This is what makes its intuitive too...

Russell Thiessen November 14, 2016

Missing basic quality of life features The engine itself is great but you're better off using the mobile browser version. There is not search history, tutorials, no way to sign in to pro for more processing time, a terrible keyboard, and the list goes on. Needs LOTS of usability updates. Also as a pro subscriber I would hope that the mobile app would be free. Instead it's 5$ and sucks.

David K. September 17, 2016

Its not better than web where is my search history? Cache of search results? Where is tutorial mode? Where are news for features and explore mode for all the features? Why there is no side drawer? Show me how awesome is app, i know it is, but hiding info is not goi g to help. Im new to this and dont know what to do except math questions. You have this on your page but mobile app should be friendlier than web that is the reason why i bought app. User experience needs serius work.

Marshall Whittaker July 29, 2016

Terrific app but NO pro on website!! This a wonderful tool for me as a computer programmer however.... When I decided to buy this app I was under the impression that I would be able to sign in the Wolfram Alpha website for the full desktop pro edition. You cannot!!! Misleading! Will give 5 stars when I get a lifetime pro membership on the site as I had expected. Please make this clearer on the app stores.

Pratyush Ghosh January 29, 2016

Speaking as a post graduate student of theoretical mathematics, the mathematical abilities of this app really floored me. Its ability to correctly interpret and solve complex mathematical expressions is very impressive, and I like that it gives all sorts of additional information about it too. The interface is interactive and fluid. Can't thank the developers enough for making something like this, worth every penny and more!

Marco Polo October 16, 2015

Key board. And suggestion One the keyboard is atrocious it is very in responsive and straight just doesn't work well. One suggestion of mine that would get this up to 5 stars is if there was a "home" page in which there would be like most searched inquiries for the week or month and maybe a top pick of interesting results (or facts ) picked by the staff. In all the app is not bad to any degree and is very functional and helpful I would gladly of paid 5 dollars for it rather than 4. 4/5 stars would recommend again

David Watson September 7, 2016

LIterally nothing better Where do I start... They can answer damn near any math question you've got. With a whole bunch of different representations of the solution. Its incredible. I bought this app twice now... Switched from iphone to android... Worth it both times. Step by step problem solving... Fact checker or just basic research engine really.... Only problem... No camera input so math problems have to be handtyped.

Ryu Takada April 25, 2016

Great app I wish they'd add the option to see the way of a solution about series. Where it checks if a series converges or diverges. Right now it only tells you which and what type of test is used to check but the actual way is left off. PLEASE ADD A BACK BUTTON TO SEE THE PREVIOUS QUERY seriously, if you tap the back on your phone it exits the app from every screen... WTF. Why not show the previous query(calculation) that I did instead??

RyanWake bradtelle March 22, 2016

This app is freaking amazing There are so many features but I know the creators can do more. This app will get better and more efficient I know potential when I see it. Maybe connecting to your accounts and compiling data from it. Find other programs that do new and innovative things and emulate them and integrate them. Try. I'm posing the input text box. Have the program ask questions if it cannot understand what is being asked.

Lucas Negreiros November 11, 2015

Works great for me It comprises a great overview when you search for companies. It can show a whole lot about countries and cities. It gives all possible solutions when searching an equation. It even plots graphs. It's pretty awesome for a single app to do all this. I use an xperia m4 aqua with android 5.0 and have encountered no bugs so far. It's an insane access to useful information in few seconds. I loved it.

Juraj Mavračić January 2, 2017

Wolfram Alpha is excellent, the Android app sucks Although Wolfram Alpha is a brilliant piece of software, the Android app could have been made much better and more convenient. The most annoying thing is that there is no history, so when you typed in some longer equation and then something else later on, you have to type the previous thing again if you want to see it again. no multitasking. not even history. that's a shame. obviously no thought whatsoever was put into the development of the app, and what you see is basically just a browser window.

Skip Montanaro December 19, 2015

Missing some basic features It would be nice if the alphanumeric portion of the keyboard supported SWYPE... There seems to be no way to access a menu, provide feedback, get a tutorial, our anything else within the app. Fortunately, I've used the website for some basic things before, so wasn't entirely lost.

Brian Schultz April 11, 2016

Supercomputer in my pocket? Wolfram Alpha close to the work of science fiction. It's faster and smarter than Google or my TI-84 Plus. Wolfram Alpha can solve any math problem, calculus, algebra, or basic arithmetic (step-by-step explanation included)! Wolfram Alpha can find any information and analyze it for you. Don't let the price fool you, either. At $3, it may be above the market anchor, but it's well worth it. A must have for advanced math students (and infomaniacs). EDIT: I haven't had technical issues as with other reviewers.

Zanzibar Zedley March 16, 2016

Ok but missing crucial desktop facility The ONLY reason I bought this was so I could have a somewhat similar experience on mobile. However the critical feature of "random" as an entry is sorely missing from the mobile version. It cannot be too tough to implement what is already an auxiliary action on desktop on mobile, especially given that the desktop platform is free.

matt dunaway January 29, 2016

Very useful, sometimes.. I'm currently using this for algebra and after some use I'm changing my 5star rating to 3. The reason for this is because of the user interface. It does show a step by step solution to one form of solving an equation; however, in some cases where there is more than one solution it fails to provide the step by step for those other solutions. allow the user to decide which method to learn and I'll definitely change the rating. The problem was x^2-d=(x+c)(x-12), for d&c. Apparently d=144. Why??

notstarboard November 21, 2015

Bug fixes only for years now The UI very antiquated, and the keyboard has a maddening input delay that makes fast typing difficult. This app should get a material redesign, but even if that isn't happening it definitely needs sprucing up. Look at the screenshots - the UI hasn't been changed since Jelly Bean at the latest.

April 15, 2017

Wolfram Alpha rarely understands more than the most basic queries I make. It takes many tries before I find a wording for a query like "what is the size of 1 molecule of water" that returns the result that I want. It's incredibly frustrating to use at times. The app isn't worth the money, the full website in your browser will offer a marginally better experience.

Benjamin Wiebe March 6, 2016

Don't Bother, Use the Site A great service with a terrible app. The interface is clunky and annoying to use, plus the forced keyboard causes for difficulties with typing simple phrases. Overall you're much better off just using the web site from your device's browser.

h99gG Kl March 7, 2017

Amazing app for any STEM related work. Detailed step-by-step is my favorite feature. The only down side is the in-app keyboard is quite slow and not accurate. Like if I want to type a formula a bit too 'fast', 99% of the time the app doesn't register the button I press leading to a typo in the formula. Beside the keyboard is slow, the app is worth to pay for it.

Michael Thompson November 10, 2016

Awesome I gave 5 stars, because it's deserves 5 stars XD Honestly I don't know why everyone it's complaining about the keyboard, I think it it's amazing! I'm glad you just pay for it once, which it's completely worth it. When I'm going engineering problems and need to type in an integral without doing everything by hand, I go to this app every time.

Spencer Dirrim October 14, 2015

Unpredictable except for simple arithmetic Ask it for statistical operations on a set of data. Or information about chemical mixtures. Or a few other things that I have spent longer trying to get wolfram to understand than it would have taken me to look up the equations and do then myself. This is barely more powerful than a Google search bar, if that.
