One of the most popular options on campus right now is the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gauthmath.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gauth app<\/a>, with millions of downloads. It\u2019s owned by ByteDance, which is also TikTok\u2019s parent company.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The Gauth app first launched in 2019 with a primary focus on mathematics, but soon expanded to other subjects as well, like chemistry and physics. It\u2019s grown in relevance, and neared the\u00a0top of smartphone download lists\u00a0earlier this year for the education category. Students seem to love it. With hundreds of thousands of primarily positive reviews, Gauth has a favorable 4.8 star rating in the\u00a0Apple App Store\u00a0and\u00a0Google Play Store.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>All students have to do after downloading the app is point their smartphone at a homework problem, printed or handwritten, and then make sure any relevant information is inside of the image crop.
