The Big Picture: Why Solvely Exists

Solvely’s goal is simple—turn every homework panic-moment into a teachable aha-moment. Snap a photo, paste a prompt, or record a lecture and the app breaks the problem down so you actually learn instead of memorise. It has already helped more than two million users solve well over four-and-a-half million questions, boasting a 90 percent overall success rate.

A quick look at the App Store shows a 4.7-star average from almost twenty-thousand ratings, so the crowd seems on board.

Solvely’s Main Features

Below are the headliners that make the app stand out. Each one sits under the same friendly interface, so you can jump from solving derivatives to drafting an essay without leaving the app.

Homework Help (Step-by-Step Guidance)

Type or paste any STEM, social-science, or liberal-arts question and Solvely walks you through every step until you understand the why—not just the final number. This “ask until you understand” loop is what many students say keeps them coming back.

AI Photo Solver

No more re-typing a monster equation. Point your phone at textbook text, handwritten notes, or even a whiteboard. The image is parsed in seconds and returned with colour-coded steps you can expand for deeper detail.

Quiz Maker

Paste lecture notes (or last night’s reading) and instantly generate a custom, shareable quiz. It’s a speedy way to check recall before an exam or build flashcards for your study group.

Essay Writer

Stuck on a blank Google Doc? The in-app writing assistant suggests outlines, thesis statements, and citation structures. You can then tweak tone and word count until it sounds like you—not a bot.

AI Note Taker

Hit record during class and let Solvely transcribe, highlight key points, and build a searchable Q&A database from the audio. Perfect for professors who sprint through slides.

Multi-Platform Compatibility

A browser extension brings the same toolbox to Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, Google Docs, Word, Zoom, and a dozen other platforms. It feels like the app travels with you, not the other way around.

Pricing: Gems, Subscriptions & the Real Cost of "Free"

Solvely is free to download and lets you test a couple of questions before asking for money. After that you have two payment routes:

1. Gems – Pay-as-you-go credits starting around $0.99 for 10 questions or $2.99 for 200. Ideal for light users but watch the meter; every follow-up costs gems.
2. Subscription – Unlimited scanning and explanations: $6.99 weekly, $12.99 monthly, $38.99 for six months, or $46.99 per year. A free trial is usually on offer.

Students on tight budgets should note that some reviewers complain gems disappear or scans mis-fire without refunds, so keep a screenshot of your balance before each session.

FAQ

Is Solvely really free?

You can download and try a handful of questions for free, but regular use will require either buying gems or a subscription.

Does Solvely only handle math?

No. While the camera solver shines in math and statistics, the app also supports science, humanities, and even essay writing thanks to its integrated language model.

How accurate is it?

The company claims about 90 percent accuracy across subjects, and public reviews generally back that up—though higher-level calculus and proofs occasionally stump it.

Can it work inside my LMS?

Yes. Chrome and Edge extensions bring Solvely’s toolbox into Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, Google Docs, Zoom, and more.

What about privacy?

Solvely stores questions on its servers to improve the model. You can delete history inside the settings, but there is no end-to-end encryption, so avoid uploading sensitive info.

Final Take

If you crave speed and accuracy when stuck on homework, Solvely earns its spot on your phone. The free tier is enough for casual checks, and the yearly plan is cheaper than a single tutoring session. Just keep an eye on your gem balance, and remember that learning happens when you engage with the explanation—not only when you copy the answer.
