You can either type your query (formula) using a scientific calculator in the app, or draw it on your phone’s screen. What’s more, you can just use your phone camera, and scan the formulas written in your notebook. I just hope it works with bad handwriting, such as mine.

The company uses the camera tech to scan documents in its new Office app for mobile as well.

Microsoft Math Solver supports 22 languages including English, German, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Hindi.
