FastMath review
A worksheet-focused math solver for iOS, with handwriting support and follow-up explanations.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Sep 2026
FastMath is a mobile math-solving app for students and learners who want to scan individual problems or full worksheets. It detects multiple questions on a page, supports printed and handwritten math, and presents answers with ordered solution steps. The app is available for iPhone and iPad, with compatibility also listed for Mac and Apple Vision. That makes its worksheet-first approach a natural fit for learners who work from paper and want explanations tied to the problems they scan.
Its standout strength is the combination of full-page detection and tools for continuing beyond an initial answer. Users can ask AI follow-up questions, listen to audio explanations, and keep questions in organized cards. PDF export can help preserve or share work. These features give FastMath more scope than a camera tool that only returns a single answer, particularly when a page contains several exercises or a handwritten problem. Choose it if scanning and reviewing a batch of mobile homework is central to your workflow; a learner who mainly wants a desktop-first or non-Apple option should look elsewhere.
FastMath is listed as a freemium download with in-app purchases. Its listed purchase options are Weekly Pack, Subscription Monthly, Subscription 3 Months, Six Months Subscription, and Lifetime Pack; the Weekly Pack listing indicates a free trial, while the other subscription entries describe subscription access and Lifetime Pack is a lifetime purchase. According to the product listing, this structure gives buyers several access periods, but it does not establish an unlimited free solving tier. Consider the trial and purchase format before relying on it for ongoing study. Its narrow Apple-device availability is the clearest trade-off for learners who need broader platform coverage.
