Alternatives to GeoGebra
Free interactive math tools for graphing, geometry, 3D, algebra and calculus, used in browsers and apps. The listings below can replace it for an important use case. Each note says what changes if you switch.
The original
GeoGebra
Free interactive math tools for graphing, geometry, 3D, algebra and calculus, used in browsers and apps.
Replacements
Listings that take over the same core job as GeoGebra.
Desmos
Free online graphing, scientific, geometry and 3D calculators, plus a math notebook.
Desmos offers free graphing, scientific, geometry and 3D calculators plus a math notebook, but runs in the browser only with no Android or iOS apps listed.
Kig
A KDE interactive geometry program for building and exploring geometric constructions with the mouse.
Kig is a free, open-source KDE geometry program for macOS and Linux with live constructions and Python scripting, narrower in scope than GeoGebra and without mobile apps.
SageMath
A free open-source mathematics system built on NumPy, SciPy, Maxima, GAP and many other packages.
SageMath is free GPL software combining many mathematics libraries behind a Python-based language, suited to computer algebra but with a large install and learning curve.
Wolfram|Alpha
A computational knowledge engine that answers math, science and everyday questions typed in plain language.
Wolfram|Alpha accepts plain-language questions and returns step-by-step math solutions on the web, but some features are paid and it lacks drag-and-explore geometry.
Symbolab
An online math solver that works through algebra, trigonometry and calculus problems step by step.
Symbolab provides step-by-step solutions with graphing calculators and practice problems on web, mobile and Chrome, with some features requiring a Pro subscription.
Also worth comparing
These listings name GeoGebra as their own alternative, so the relationship runs both ways.
PhET Interactive Simulations
Free interactive physics, chemistry and math simulations usable directly in the browser.
GeoGebra offers interactive math tools for graphing, geometry and algebra in browsers and on Android and iOS, but it has no physics or chemistry simulations.
Photomath
A mobile app that scans math problems with the camera and explains the solution step by step.
GeoGebra is free on web, Android and iOS with graphing, geometry and algebra tools, but you enter problems yourself rather than scanning them with a camera.
Similar software
Related functionality, not a direct replacement.
Mathway
A math problem solver that shows step-by-step solutions for typed or photographed problems.
Brilliant
Interactive, visual lessons and an AI tutor for learning math and coding, on the web and mobile.
Jupyter
Browser-based notebooks, JupyterLab and the classic Notebook, that combine live code, text and visualizations.
Numbat
Calculate with physical units in a typed scientific language.
