## Review summary

Desmos Graphing Calculator is praised for power and versatility, especially given that it’s free. Reviewers highlight derivatives, integrals, polygons, and even sound features, making it a strong educational tool and easier than a real graphing calculator. However, common complaints include: no dark mode, UI that relies on small buttons and lots of scrolling, and persistence issues where settings or saved items reset. Users also want copy/paste support and advanced features like geometry/3D graphs or a basic regular calculator mode. Overall, it’s powerful with notable usability gaps.

### Pros

- Powerful, feature-rich graphing with derivatives, integrals, polygons, and even sound features.
- Free to use with no in-app purchases and widely praised as an essential educational tool.
- Easy to navigate and intuitive, making it a preferred calculator for students and everyday math.
- Excellent for algebra and visual understanding of graphs; highly versatile beyond a standard calculator.
- Long-time users rely on it daily; praised as a reliable, widely loved tool.

### Cons

- Lack of dark mode / need for a dark theme (frequent requests across reviews).
- UI/UX issues: small buttons and cramped keyboard, plus content that requires lots of scrolling or is offscreen.
- Persistence issues: settings and saved items can reset or disappear when the app is backgrounded.
- Missing advanced features like geometry/3D graphing (and lack of a true regular calculator mode on mobile).
