iTutor teaches you how to solve a math problem, while Photomath focuses on giving you the solution. Both can read a problem from a photo; iTutor can explain it directly or, in Teach me mode, walk through the reasoning step by step and generate practice problems so you build the skill, not just the answer.
More detail
Photomath is fast for checking your work: snap a photo, see the answer with steps. iTutor is the right choice when you actually need to learn the topic: it explains the underlying concept, asks check questions, and generates similar practice problems. For exam prep where you'll need to solve problems on your own, iTutor's approach builds real skill. Both have a free option.
