Simplemente excelente

Se afirma que la creatividad no conoce fronteras. Esta aplicación lo pone de manifiesto. Nos ayuda a optimizar considerablemente nuestras tareas. Quiero felicitar al equipo de desarrolladores.

Amazing app

Nothing else to say, it just simply works! Great Detexify alternative, and a life-saver for mathematics students like me.

Simple, Free, Open Source

Tbh the best companion app aiding in my current thesis. Love the fact that it’s Open Sourced as well :D

Response from developer

Thank you!

Very useful

Thanks for making this, it makes my life a lot easier!

Low accuracy

Works well for certain symbols, but for a lot of symbols it doesn't work at all, which makes it not that useful for general purpose.

Great

Amazing app. It’s not perfect but it’s correct most of the time. I am glad that I found this.

Excelente

Nos encantó.
Gran ayuda a la hora de buscar un símbolo en LaTeX. Gracias.

A great implementation of Detexify for iOS

With DeTeXt, Venkata has leveraged the power of Detexity and brought it to a pretty and functional native iOS. app. This app works well, and very helpfully finds the LaTeX command for the symbols that you draw, saving a lot of looking up. I am very grateful for this.

A great implementation of Detexify for macOS

With DeTeXt, Venkata has leveraged the power of Detexity and brought it to a pretty and functional native iOS and macOS apps (the offical Detexify macOS app is literally unusuable). This app works well, and very helpfully finds the LaTeX command for the symbols that you draw, saving a lot of looking up. I am very grateful for this.

Useful app for LaTeX users

Response from developer

Thank you! I’m glad you like it.

Perfect

I loved Detexify and i love DeTeXt even more:
• Native
• Drawing feels satisfying
• Easy, minimalist user interface
• Open source
• MIT License

It just works!

Some difficulty with more complex symbols, virtually zero issues.

You are amazing. I needed this in my life

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words :)

Does one thing, and does it well

Only issue: I wouldn’t mind a tip jar so I can give you a few bucks as a thank you ;-)

Response from developer

Thank you :)

DOWNLOAD NOW

If you have managed to stumble onto this app you already know what LaTeX is and have probably fallen victim to typing random abbreviations into your editor just to find the proper symbol. This fixes that. Developer, if you read this I just want you to know that this has saved me so much time and headache. I, as a fellow human who uses LaTeX, wish the absolute best for you and yours. I am recommending this app to everyone I know that uses LaTeX. Thank you again dev, sincerely.

DeTeXt Problems

I can’t even use it once. I have tried deleting it, reinstalling, closing it and then opening again. And it still freezes the instant it opens and won’t let me draw, search, or go to the help section. I though this app would be good with the amount of good reviews I’ve seen. But I can’t even get it to function once. Thumbs down, sorry.😐👎🏻

Response from developer

I’m sorry, this is the first I’ve heard of the app crashing repeatedly. Can you contact me via twitter or email so I can figure out what’s wrong?

Super!

Sehr flott, treffsicher und dark mode!
Und das auch noch gratis und ohne Datenkrake!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Impressive

I’m surprised that something as simple as a LaTeX lookup tool could be so well made.

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words.
