Abstract
A Maple procedure for the analytical solving of second-order ordinary differential equations admitting two known λ-symmetries is presented. The approach is based on the construction of two commuting generalized symmetries for the equation by using both λ-symmetries. From these two commuting symmetries, two functionally independent first integrals of the equation arise by quadratures. The set of routines includes a solver for these types of equations, and commands for the explicit determination of: integrating factors of the reduced and auxiliary equations associated with the λ-symmetries; a Jacobi last multiplier; and two integrating factors for the given equation.
