### 2/5 — Packages?

*2025-10-22, version 1.0.6*

I can’t seem to get any packages to work. All it does is say that it’s looking for the sty file.

I’ve tried
\usepackage{suppose}
and
\usepackage{verse}

### 3/5 — Ok

*2025-08-25*

Requires internet connection to typeset and can be quite slow but it’s free and seems to work

### 4/5 — 95점 TeX 편집기: Virtually flawless

*2025-07-09*

Builds well, Previews well, Simple as well, LaTeX editor done right.
But 3 minor blemishes:
1. edit text ui is partially redundant. Immediate edit by keyboard input redirects cursor to the end of document.
2. preview pdf window has header and footer bars do not hide, irritates me.
3. online compilation is slow and untrustable. where did you send my tex file for building it?

### 3/5 — Works well

*2025-05-31*

Does what it says! *** EDIT: This remains true, however, I have found that I am not able to install packages. Once this gets fixed then the 5* review will be reinstated as without this, most documents that people use and create will not be viable.

### 2/5 — One compile and that is it.

*2024-12-10, version 1.0.6*

Once you run the code to generate the PDF, any changes made afterwards do not get changed. Once in a while it works but most of the time the PDF just stay the same as it was the first time you ran the code. There is also a bad habit of the code not saving any updates as well. This makes this app unusable. Hope it gets fixed soon.

### 1/5 — Kein Stern Betrug

*2024-08-01*

Die sagen free pro hab sogar Foto davon. Aber belasten die Kreditkarte mit 34,99.

Einfach Betrug. Rezession wird geändert wenn Geld zurück überwiesen wurde.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2024-07-29, version 1.0.6*

I could not use this app at all, the cursor kept jumping to the last line after every letter I typed. I tried pasting some code from a different file and it wouldn’t compile. I downloaded because it was free but the app turned out extremely buggy and impossible to use.

### 1/5 — Crashes, useless

*2024-05-28, version 1.0.6*

I loaded a doc that runs just fin on my PC. I hit the arrow and — poof — the program just crashed.  I tried multiple times. Plus, I cannot directly edit Dropbox files. Worthless.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2024-05-25, version 1.0.6*

I’m having the same experience as other reviews. I make corrections in my document and then it reverted back to the original, and all the corrections are lost.

### 1/5 — Sieht Vielversprechend aus, aber…

*2024-05-18*

… der erste logische Schritt ist, dass sich die File-Ansicht öffnet. Gut, ergibt Sinn. Aber: Tex Files sind ausgegraut. Man kann sie nicht öffnen. Das ergibt so leider keinen Sinn.

### 1/5 — Does not recognise the .cls file

*2024-04-07*

Such a nice software but compilation breaks.

### 1/5 — It does not work on ipad os 17.x

*2024-03-10*

Thank you for the trial, anyway.

### 1/5 — Wastage of time

*2024-03-04*

I spent an hour trying to write some basic equations; it didn’t helped to write even a single word. Always you see on white page “this is my first LaTeX document.
So annoying.
Wastage of time!

### 1/5 — Asked to pay repeatedly

*2026-08-06*

I bought this app in pro version a couple years ago but now I have to pay it again in this subscription form. ridiculous!

### 1/5 — Utterly Pointless Review

*2026-05-15*

They asked me to submit a review the moment I opened the app, so here it is, every single moving of my time with the app, about ten seconds so far, consisted entirely of a completely useless review prompt. Great if you’re looking for an app with review nags!

### 1/5 — Если закрыть предпросмотр, закрывается приложение.

*2026-02-15*

Несколько проблем. 1. Если закрыть предпросмотр, закрывается приложение полностью. 2. Внизу одна панель перекрывает другую.

### 1/5 — Can’t compile

*2025-12-13*

Did not compile my file, asked me to check error file, error file said there is no error.

### 1/5 — Tex pro

*2025-10-01, version 1.0.6*

Locked up unable to edit now can’t retrieve file .

### 1/5 — jump to the end every time i try to edit it

*2025-04-10, version 1.0.6*

it moves cursor to the end of the document every time i tries to edit it

### 1/5 — scam. does not work

*2025-03-01, version 1.0.6*

scam. does not work as advertized. trap to get you pay for premium

### 1/5 — Does not save progress

*2024-11-28, version 1.0.6*

Be prepared to type up a few paragraphs and have them disappear randomly. Do not use unless you enjoy redoing your work over and over again.

### 1/5 — Wont save. Wont compile

*2024-09-22, version 1.0.6*

No thanks.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert leider nicht

*2024-08-20*

Leider funktioniert weder das Kompilieren des Texts (es lädt ewig, wird aber nicht fertig), noch der Button um Fehler anzuzeigen (App stürzt jedes mal ab). Sehr schade

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-10-04*

Good application. Could you please go forward?  Need some more clarity.

### 5/5 — LaTeX

*2025-02-17, version 1.0.6*

Now we can use phones, and for a markup language that is a bit extra, but if fancy is what you want, no markup language beats LaTeX. A hustler won’t wait to get to a computer; they will do it with their phone. This app is a must for any hustler on the go. Take it from me.

### 5/5 — Nur wegen gratis Pro

*2024-09-11*

.

### 5/5 — Question

*2024-07-09*

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-02-24*

App breaks when I run “ \documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[
    axis lines=middle,
    xmin=0, xmax=1.5,
    ymin=0, ymax=1.5,
    xlabel={$x$},
    ylabel={$y$},
    ticks=none
]
% Draw quarter circle
\addplot [domain=0:1, samples=100] ({cos(deg(x))}, {sin(deg(x))});
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

\end{document}”

### 5/5 — Perfect

It worked. It just worked.
