You know, in the past, you had to either struggle through homework yourself or look for a solution manual.

And now you can just take a photo of the problem and get an answer in seconds.
I experimented a bit with different apps and services that help solve assignments from photos using neural networks, and here’s what I noticed.

The easiest to work with is Photomath if you're only doing math.
Point the camera at the equation — and you not only get the result but see the entire solution step-by-step.
The downside is that it doesn’t handle physics or chemistry.
A similar service, Mathway, also works pretty well, but some details are hidden without a subscription.

If you need to do assignments from photos across different subjects, it’s better to look into MathGPT.
It covers math, physics, and chemistry — all in one place.
The interface is in English, but the solver itself understands Russian quite well.

For more serious topics like higher mathematics and complex graphs, I’d recommend Wolfram|Alpha.
It’s not just a solver — it’s a whole computational system.
However, it only recognizes photos in the paid version; in the free version, it only processes text.

There’s also Symbolab — a good mathematical calculator with a nice formula layout.
If you’re a student and want not just the answer but to understand the logic, everything is explained in detail there.

Now, more universal solutions are appearing.
For example, BotHub — a platform that gathers different AI models like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude.
You can choose which neural network suits you and upload a photo of the assignment.
Gauth is similar but more focused on homework for school subjects.

Honestly, if you need to quickly do homework from a photo without hassle, Photomath or Mathway are your helpers.
But if there are multiple subjects or the problems are more complex, it’s better to have several services on hand.
Each one is good in its own way.
I usually combine them: first, quickly check with Photomath, then if something’s unclear, upload to MathGPT or Wolfram for a more detailed analysis.
It works pretty well.
