Extremely useful and a steal at this price. The step by step solutions are great if you're still learning math or just stuck on a certain problem and the syntax allows for such a broad array of inquiries that I almost always find the answer to what I'm looking for. Probably the only app that makes me wish for more microtransactions because I almost feel guilty for how much use I'm getting out of it.
Reviews for WolframAlpha Classic
Not as good as the paid web version, but better than the free web version. Definitely worth it.
This app is fairly amazing and it WAS a great purchase until just like almost every other application that we all thought would be a one-time purchase, the developers decided to make numerous levels of pro, pro+ monthly subscription options, and a new version of the app which from reading the reviews, not to many people care for. Most Importantly, I noticed the developers didn't care to include in the app description that it contains in-app purchases... Probably because it originally DIDN'T!
This app used to be excellent some three to five years ago. Search engines nowadays are slowly including many features that WolframAlpha has, while it is stuck in one place. (Not saying that this is a search engine!) I would agree that this app is in many cases still useful, but overall it is not worth the money. Not mentioning the slow computing speed. The input method isn't even suited for math problems, though that is the most useful feature (at least for me).
While it's great, as far as I can tell there's a file upload/image upload in iOS, which isn't possible to use on the app on Android. I'm not sure why and it's alienating a lot of functionality just because someone doesn't have iOS. Maybe I'm wrong, but if so it's incredibly confusing to figure out how to use on the app. And there's no way to pay extra to unlock it, whereas apparently on iOS there is.
On its way, I use mostly for math related questions but allot of the times it doesn't give plot points or step by step solutions. Fairly lazy programming for a paid app.
It was much more capable until regular WolframAlpha got a subscription based premium plan. I think it would be fair to give WolframAlpha Classic owners who actually paid for premium features a permanent premium subscription in regular WolframAlpha.
it's a useful app. but it lacks many basic feature like giving access to external keyboard, and need better search recommendations for questions that it may not understand if it gave modified question that the computer can understand will be great. and it really needs UI update.
Somehow less financial than just going to the website. Now all the results are invisible and it can barely parse inputs. Basically useless.
If you need specific information about anything, the app does a great job presenting it. It is a bit slow at computing everything and it requires really specific input to give the desired results (can get used to that). The UI is a bit outdated and the in-app keyboard is clumsy (you can disable it and I do not use it) but it does what it needs to do. I recommend it, it really is a good source of information.
