“One hour per day of study in your chosen field is all it takes. One hour per day of study will put you at the top of your field within three years. Within five years you’ll be a national authority. In seven years, you can be one of the best people in the world at what you do.” — Earl Nightingale

Suppose you sit at the desk to do your homework or to learn any specific concept of your field. You are reading textbooks but are unable to grasp the concept. Frustrated with it, you open YouTube and enter your query. A lot of videos are in front of you. Now, you have to choose which one would contain the precise and accurate information you are looking for. This whole drill will steal your one hour and will kill your productivity.

That's why, a lot of students and teachers are relying on Socratic by Google app to learn new concepts and do their homework. This app has 4.9-star reviews on the Google App and Apple Play Store in 2024. What is this app and how is it helping students? Let's discuss it in this blog.

What is Socratic Google AI?

Google launches a Socratic app that uses artificial intelligence just like Gemini or ChatGPT does. It is a learning app that helps students at the high school or university level. These students could double-check their homework, overcome any hurdle, and get answers to their questions.

In it, learners could send a picture of their homework, type their questions, or send the audio command to AI. They can even scroll through the app to find different topics related to various subjects. The app covers every subject, such as Chemistry, Maths, Physics, Environmental Studies, Biology, and many more. Using this app is as straightforward as using Siri and as fun as using Snapchat.

The best thing about this app is it is free to use. You can download it on iPad, iPhone, or Android. You need iOS or iPadiOS 15 and later to download this app.

How to Use the Socratic Google App?

Step 1: The first thing you need to do is to download the Socratic app from Google Play Store or Apple Play Store. Once it is downloaded, sign up with your Google account.

Step 2: Once you sign up, it will take you to various steps, asking about your permissions. One of the permissions is to access your microphone and camera. You have to give it all the permissions to use the app effectively.

Step 3: After this, an interface will come. There will be a camera screen in the middle where you can tap on the camera icon and snap a picture of your question. It is best for doing Math homework. Or, you can swipe right to verbally ask your questions. Alternatively, you can swipe left to type your question. If you don't want to use any of these features, you could scroll down to browse available topics.

Step 4: Once you have submitted your questions, Socratic will take a few seconds to respond to you. It will provide you with a detailed answer to your question, along with illustrations and links to YouTube videos. It also links top and authentic websites and relevant searches from Google. If you open the links, they will open in your Socratic app.

Socratic Apps Reviews

Android

The Android app is simple and easy to use. It uses default font size and type so it would be easy for you to read the text. If you prefer large font sizes, the app will display the large fonts. Whether it is their buttons or explanation, you will find the same font. 

Due to the large fonts, you may find difficulty in reading headings. Because they may cut down on your screen. So, you have to slightly shrink the font. Moreover, you can also view images by magnifying them through a magnifying glass feature. 

Google allows you to use Socratic with the Talkback tool for voiceover purposes. In this way, you can control your screen without your eyes.

iOS

The iPhone app has a lot of other features than the Android app. Various resources and learning materials on this app are helping iOS users. If they scroll down on the app, there are various cards with subjects on them. These subjects cover a vast variety of topics for learners.

This app supports Dynamic Text. It means that a lot of explanation is in the large print size font. But, a few Math equations are smaller because they are in other fonts. You can zoom them through the Zoom lens feature. It is also used to enlarge visuals. You can also take screenshots of explanations and equations and zoom in for better viewing.

Personalized Learning 

Every learner prefers different kinds of learning. Some have low vision so they don't want to read from the screen. Some prefer kinesthetic learning and some have auditory learning preferences. The app ensures that everyone’s unique needs are fulfilled and they can do self-directed learning easily.

For example, it provides YouTube video tutorials for those who prefer kinesthetic learning. It also provides visuals in the answer for better explanation. It has a voice-over facility for those who don't want to read from the screen. It allows you to type your query or speak it out loud.
