It doesn't scan correctly anymore, and when it does the answer is a 50/50 if it is false or not. It literally won't scan, or will answer a question that I didn't take a picture of. Also 75% of the time, the answers are wrong more recently, if it scans, it will usually redirect you to Google Lens, if I wanted to use lens, I would, but Lens can't do graph questions, or answer them when I have having trouble with Khan academy. I used it in 2022 and it was much better, but is worse now in 2024.

This is a good app except for alot of problems it doesn't solve like word problems graphs and anything that isnt a standard equation laid out. Sometimes it works with graphs and other times it doesn't. So basically this app can't do geometry. Also if the problem can't be solved by photo math takes me to the Google lens app which doesn't even help. Even if it did what would be the point in having this app.
