ShowYourWork

ShowYourWork turns typed, photographed, or URL-based problems into handwritten-style solutions with step-by-step work. It lists Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science, and History, and is presented as a study tool for students, study groups, and test preparation. On the web, input is limited to 350 characters, with image attachments available. Users can choose among four handwriting styles, a custom free try, three paper types, detailed or summary output, and square output sizes of 1024, 2048, or 4096. Solutions can be exported as PNG or PDF, copied, printed, or shared by link. Users can upload one page of handwriting for cloning; each account receives one free try, while paid plans include unlimited cloning. The Free forever plan costs nothing and resets monthly, allowing three generations per month. A Weekly Pass costs $2.99, paid once for one week. Monthly plans cost $7 a month, $25 a month, or $45 a month. Android, iOS, and web are listed platforms. The iOS app lists voice input, camera upload, offline mode, and cloud sync. Notion export is ready; Canvas LMS and Google Classroom are marked coming soon.

ShowYourWork offers several ways to submit problems and multiple output and sharing options. The free plan has a monthly generation limit, while higher-volume options have listed one-week or monthly prices.

ShowYourWork may suit students, study groups, and people preparing for tests who want step-by-step solutions in handwritten form. It covers the listed science, math, computing, and history subjects.

Overview

ShowYourWork turns typed, photographed, or URL-based problems into handwritten solutions with step-by-step work. It is best suited to students, study groups, and test preparation where seeing and sharing worked solutions matters. Its adjustable presentation is a useful distinction, but the free plan’s three monthly generations make it a limited option for regular study.

Key features

The service covers Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science, and History. On the web, typed prompts have a 350-character limit, with image attachment as another way to submit a problem. Detailed or summary output, three paper types, and square resolutions from 1024 to 4096 let users tailor the result; the resolution ceiling and monthly generations depend on the plan.

Users can choose among four handwriting styles, or try custom styles that adjust ink bleed, pressure, paper texture, and messiness. Handwriting cloning uses a photo of one page of the user’s writing. Each account gets one free cloning try, while paid plans include unlimited cloning. This is useful for students who want a more personal-looking result, though it does not change the underlying solution.

Grader Mode provides red-ink corrections, detailed feedback, and step-by-step error analysis, making the service more useful for reviewing an attempt than a solution generator alone. Batch Processing handles 10 or more problems simultaneously through a multi-threaded engine, a practical fit for a study group or a larger practice set. The Smart Engine claims 99.9% accuracy on math, physics, and chemistry; that is a maker claim, not a reason to treat generated work as infallible.

Solutions can be exported as PNG or PDF, copied, printed, or shared by link. PDF Export and Public Links are active; Notion is export-ready, while Canvas LMS and Google Classroom are coming soon. The iOS app lists voice input, camera upload, offline mode, and cloud sync. Android, iOS, and web are supported overall.

Pricing

Free forever costs nothing and resets monthly. It includes three generations a month, with three additional generations through referral; explanations and practice problems are always free. That is enough to explore the service, but not a dependable allowance for frequent problem solving.

Weekly Pass costs $2.99 per one week, with no monthly commitment and cancellation anytime. It includes all Starter features for a week, making it the lower-commitment choice for a short study push rather than ongoing use.

Starter costs $7 a month and includes 10 generations, 1K resolution, two handwriting styles, 50 history items, and 20 saved problems, plus grader mode, PDF export, batch upload, and priority processing. It fits occasional users who want the core paid tools, but the quota and two-style cap are restrictive for heavier use.

Standard costs $25 a month and raises the allowance to 50 generations, resolution to 2K, styles to all four, history to 200 items, and saved problems to 100. This suits more regular study and preserves the same listed processing and export features. Pro costs $45 a month for 100 generations, 4K Ultra-HD resolution, all four styles, 500 history items, and 500 saved problems, alongside those same features. It is the plan for high-volume use or users who need the highest output resolution; otherwise, its larger quota and storage may be more than necessary.

Platforms

ShowYourWork is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The iOS app’s voice input, camera upload, offline mode, and cloud sync are especially relevant to students working from paper or away from a connection.

Who it's for

Choose ShowYourWork if you want worked solutions in a customizable handwritten presentation, especially when exporting, sharing, grading, or processing multiple problems matters. It is less compelling if you need a generous free allowance or only want a straightforward math solver.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Typed, photo, and URL problem inputs plus six subject areas give students several ways to work across different kinds of assignments.
• Pro: Grader Mode, batch processing, and export or sharing options support review and group workflows beyond generating a single answer.
• Con: Three free generations per month are too few for routine use, and Starter still caps users at 10 generations monthly.
• Con: The web input limit is 350 characters, which can constrain long prompts unless users submit an image instead.
• Con: Classroom integrations are not ready yet; Canvas LMS and Google Classroom are marked coming soon.

Alternatives

Mathway is worth considering for a broader platform footprint, including Windows, or if solver and calculator access is the priority. Photomath offers a free Basic plan with step-by-step explanations on Android and iOS; its custom visual aids and extra how-and-why tips are excluded from that tier.

AI Homework Help: Scan & Solve is an iOS-only option that is free to start without signup, while AskSia offers daily problem solves, step-by-step solutions, and photo input across Android, iOS, desktop, web, and extension platforms.

CameraMath is a reasonable alternative if you want online photo, screenshot, handwritten, text, and calculator inputs with step-by-step solutions. Cymath fits readers seeking step-by-step math solutions, with a $5 a month Plus plan for ad-free use and more detailed sub-steps on most problems.

Eqora is another iOS option with a free tier and optional Premium subscriptions. For Android users who want a free tier with a stated daily solve allowance, SnapSolve offers 20 daily solves and photo, text, and voice input, though its free plan has no history or saved sessions.

Verdict

ShowYourWork is the strongest fit for students who value shareable, customizable handwritten work, grader feedback, and batch processing. Its main drawback is the tight free quota and the step up in price for substantially more monthly use, so students who mainly need a basic solver should compare alternatives before subscribing.
