Mobile App: PhotoMath


XDA-Developers has posted a thoughtful review of a new mobile app named "PhotoMath". While there are plenty of calculator apps out there (and even MyScript Calculator, which lets you hand write in simple problems), PhotoMath takes a different approach. This app uses the camera on your smartphone to analyze equations. This turns the camera on your smartphone into a tool you can use to analyze where you made a mistake. It does not simply show the answer, but also the steps along the way to solving the equation. When encouraged to use this app in the proper way, it could be a nice study tool for low level Math classes. I suggest you give this review a look:
