### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-04-15*

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-12-19*

The developers set this up to pay first and try but the App does not work on my iPad. I cannot create a new sheet in either orientation. They advised to quit and retry which I did. I then uninstalled the App and tried again. It’s useless and not worth 50-cents let alone the $29 for an annual subscription. They get one star because I could not post at ZERO stars.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-03-24*

Didn't let me make a new document

**Developer response:** Thank you for your interest in the MathPad app. The FREE VERSION allows to: • Create documents with one page • Open and edit documents shared by other MathPad users • Open and edit documents created during any active subscription periods • Import documents from the ZurApps Vault using a private key • Use the app features in the Share menu by watching reward video ads. 

To create NEW documents you will need to use the PAID version of MathPad.

### 1/5 — What happened

*2025-01-03*

Horrible , bring the original version back.

**Developer response:** Please contact Apple Support to restore previous versions of the app (previous versions available are 26.5, 25.1, 22.2, 21.4, 20.3, 11.4, 10.1, 4.13 and 3.4). If we can be of any further assistance, please reach out to us at: email@zurapps.com.

### 1/5 — Fonctionne pas

*2024-01-24*

Incapable d’ouvrir un nouveau dossier pour commencer.

**Developer response:** For MathPad support inquires, please send details to email@zurapps.com, including screenshots.

### 5/5 — The app is pretty good

*2023-09-22*

It allows you to rapidly creat math formulas and edit it later if needed.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience; we are happy to hear that MathPad is meeting and exceeding your needs.

### 4/5 — Pretty good!

*2021-12-30*

Some of the buttons could be more responsive, and I would appreciate an “there exists” and “for all” symbol, but overall this works pretty well!

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave us this comment, as well as for your suggestions. We will take them into consideration for future versions.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2021-08-24, version 26.8*

I tried to import a Mathpad.mp from version 2.6.5, no go. Couldn't even copy/paste.

Tried to type formulas - would not recognize my add on Apple keyboard on iPad.

Typing by selecting characters from a list is slower than carving on a stone tablet and about as primitive.

Version 2.6.5 is powerful and very useable. This version (26 something) is useless.

Deleted app.
0 stars if I could.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-11-28, version 26.6*

In response to the developer: I am happy to send you a screen recording showing you that they keyboard will not appear automatically nor that the document will fill the screen.Hopefully you can work out the bugs as this looks like great software idea. Original Review: No keyboard and too small for an iPad Pro 12”. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Ads blocks entry keyboard

*2020-02-08*

Last 2 rows of keyboard is blocked by ads and not usable. Is this by design?

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. The advertisement does not block any essential buttons, only the quick buttons, and because the keyboard is scrollable you still have access to the most crucial features and functions. If you do not want to experience ads while using the app, you can purchase the one-month subscription of MathPad, and cancel at any time. Please send us an email to emails@zurapps.com if you have any other issues, and we will try to assist you.
