## What is TeX Go?

TeX Go is a LaTeX editor for iPhone and iPad, built for writing, editing, compiling, and previewing documents wherever you are.

Use it for equations, notes, reports, papers, and technical documents. TeX Go keeps the writing experience focused, with a clean editor, quick access to PDF preview, and tools that help you move smoothly from source to output.

You can work with files stored on your device or in cloud storage, start from templates, and use editing support such as automatic bracket and command completion.

TeX Go also supports local compilation, so many projects can be built directly on your device. Additional TeX packages can be imported when a project needs them, making it easier to keep working even without a remote build environment.

Key Features

• Clean LaTeX editing environment
• Local compilation for supported documents
• Fast switching between source and PDF preview
• Auto-completion for brackets and commands
• Document creation from templates
• Editing for local and cloud-based files
• Background compilation with completion notifications
• Build logs designed to make errors easier to understand

Whether you are studying, researching, drafting a paper, or polishing a technical document, TeX Go gives you a practical LaTeX workspace on iOS.
