Scan & solve
How to scan math problems with Eqora
A practical workflow from camera capture to a readable step-by-step solution.
Scan & Solve is fastest when the photo already contains a complete, readable question. This guide walks through the capture habit that produces clearer explanations.
1. Frame the full problem
Include every part of the prompt: the equation, given values, and any instruction such as “simplify” or “round to two decimals.”
If the page has multiple exercises, crop to the one you are working on.
2. Keep the page sharp and evenly lit
Hold the phone steady, avoid motion blur, and watch for glare on glossy textbook pages.
Dark shadows across exponents or fractions are a common reason for misreads.
- Fill the frame with the problem
- Use even light without glare
- Crop away unrelated exercises
3. Review, then ask follow-ups
Read the solution as a tutor would explain it. If a step jumps, ask Eqora to expand that line or show another method.
When you finish, try the next similar problem yourself before scanning again.
