Quick Graph

Type an equation. See it drawn.

Quick Graph is a graphing calculator for iPhone and iPad. It draws curves and surfaces, in 2D and 3D, from what you write.

The coordinate system comes from the equation

Write y in terms of x and you get a cartesian curve. Write r in terms of Θ and it switches to polar. There is no mode to pick. Tap one to draw it at the top.

The equation editor and its keyboard

A keyboard that speaks math

Functions, powers and roots are one tap away. Touch and hold a key for the ones behind it: sin opens asin, sinh, csc and csch.

While you type, the equation appears the way you would write it on paper, and the line under it tells you its value or what is missing.

r = 2 · cos(3Θ)

The equation list open over the graph, with a slider for n

Every equation stays in reach

The list slides up from the bottom and the graph keeps working above it. Hide a curve, change its color, or drag the slider for n and watch it move.

Six graphs at a time are free.

A surface in 3D with colored axes

Add a z and it becomes a surface

Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical equations, drawn as solid or wireframe surfaces you turn and zoom with your fingers.

Implicit surfaces such as x² + y² + z² = 4, and inequalities, are part of Advanced Features.

z = sin(x) · cos(y)

Free, with an upgrade for the advanced tools

Everything you need to enter equations and see them is free. Advanced Features is an in-app purchase that adds the rest.
