User Reviews

Users broadly praise Mathway as a helpful math tool, with many noting it solves problems and shows steps. However, a dominant recurring issue is a privacy/cookie overlay that blocks answers and cannot be moved, making the app often unusable. Additional frequent complaints include slow performance, unreliable scanning/graphing, and overlays that block the results. When it works, users find it very useful; when it doesn’t, the blocking widgets and glitches severely hamper usability.

Pros

Solves math problems with step-by-step explanations.
Generally helpful and highly rated by users (described as life-saver when it works).
Overall useful math aid for solving problems and getting help with math concepts.

Cons

Persistent privacy/cookie overlay blocks the answers and cannot be moved.
Slow loading and overall unreliability, with buffering and delays.
Camera/scanner feature unreliable; problems or graphs often not recognized.
Popups/overlays obstruct the view of the solutions.
Occasional errors or explanations that are not clear.

Recent reviews

I originally used Microsoft Math Solver but when Microslop took it down I switched to Mathway and am very happy with it. Highly recommended!

I really like Mathway because it is fast and easy to use. However, many students cannot afford the premium version. It would be great if Mathway allowed users to unlock detailed step-by-step solutions by watching ads sometimes. This could help students learn better while still supporting the company through advertisements. I think this feature would make more students stay with Mathway and appreciate the app even more.
