Photomath vs Quizly

Photomath is a mobile app for working through math problems on Android and iOS. It can scan a problem with a device camera or accept input through its smart calculator, then show a step-by-step solution. It can handle word problems as well as other math questions, and a scan may offer multiple methods to choose from. Its listed subject range spans elementary math through college math, including algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics and calculus. Interactive graphs can be zoomed and tapped for information, with definitions available in context. The free Basic plan includes step-by-step explanations; Photomath Plus adds custom visual aids and extra “how” and “why” tips, with Animated Tutorials and teacher-approved definitions also listed as Plus features. A free trial may be offered, but a subscription trial converts to paid billing unless canceled before it ends. Plus is listed at $9.99 per month or $69.99 per year. Paid Services are billed through Google Play or the iOS App Store, and use is limited to personal, non-commercial purposes.

Quizly turns uploaded course materials into AI-generated quizzes, flashcards, revision sheets, podcasts and mind maps. It accepts PDFs, Word and plain-text files, and PowerPoint imports are also listed; PDFs are its main input. Quizzes can adjust difficulty based on performance, explain answers and link to source passages. Flashcards schedule review using self-assessed recall, and an exam date can be used to build a revision calendar that is continually updated. The AI tutor can provide course-context explanations, examples and simpler summaries, while QwiMaps organize concepts into hierarchies and support exploration activities. Quizly runs on the web, iOS and Android, syncing classes and progress across devices. Its free plan is available indefinitely with limited use. Premium costs €2.91 per month when billed annually at €34.99 per year, and a seven-day trial is listed. Premium includes unlimited quizzes, cards, flashcards, podcasts and QwiMaps, and supports files up to 50MB. Quizly says courses are not shared with other users or used to train public models.
