Buggy and falls short
The system fails to respond to touch commands and has to be closed frequently. It also does not link to my OneDrive as advertised. It effectively is useless for any meaningful work.
Great
Useful app. Please, add the Spanish dictionary, if possible. Thanks!!
Where are you? Are you listening?
I have been using this LaTeX tool for several years and it has been consistently a fine compiler, but within the last year or so, customer support, which used to be prompt and helpful has become nonexistent. The program continues to have horrible file management and the sync to Dropbox feature is inconsistent.

Highly disappoing
Buy it not when it is free.
No support
The package developer has completely ceased their internet presence in all ways. This package will probably never be updated. Buy something else.
Poor support
Could be good but has glitches and issues and the support email doesn’t seem to respond.
GOOD
MUY BUENO, PERO LA ÚLTIMA ACTUALIZACIÓN LIMITÓ EL USO DE CMD T, CMD S Y OTRAS... POR FAVOR MEJORAR ELLO
Findet Dateien nicht
PNG-Dateien im selben Verzeichnis wie die tex-Datei werden nicht gefunden, was auf dem Mac mit texShop kein Problem ist. Habe die Tex-Version mit dem pro-Abo.
Momentan: Schade ums Geld….

lack of support
There have been no updates for a couple of years and it seems impossible to access documentation on website.
What used to be an excellent app no longer is. You used to be able click PDF file to go to relevant place in tex file but this no longer works after a recent IOS update.
So sorry that what used to be an excellent app is now so outdated.

Very disappointed
This is a very primitive app. You can’t even navigate to folders elsewhere on the iPad. Go with a free program first and see if it works for you.
Could be better
The app does support pdfTeX offline. XeTeX is supported only offline and LuaTeX ist not supported at all.
Synchronizing files via Dropbox is buggy.

Good app
Nice app and I’ve been using it. A lot has improved but I hope you can include graphicspath package.
Very useful
Does what it is expected to do, can handle even complex projects. The only downside is that one cannot switch between locations in the tex file and the pdf file (click on a word in the pdf and you’ll find the location of this word in the tex file and vice versa). So editing large files may be bothersome and the app cannot compete with user-friendliness of overleaf-likes. Still, it is the best offline Latex editor on iPad I found.

大変助かってます
日本語入力、フォントの追加まで含め、全く問題なく利用できております。日々の業務になくてはならないツールとなっておりますが、最近更新が無いので先々どうなるか少し心配しております。
Sync broken
The app is the best iPad LaTeX app I've found (at least when Dropbox sync works)! The Dropbox sync is relatively clean once I figured out how it works (I have to sync manually using the "Sync" button in the "Open file" menu), it has tools to download desired packages, and it compiles offline. The interface takes some getting used to but is quite usable after that.
The problem is the sync: my iPad is not my primary computing device, so I would like to be able to cleanly move from my computer to my iPad and back. Dropbox sync is buggy: I have to manually sync the files, and when I do, usually I get an error message and have to unlink and relink to Dropbox.
OneDrive sync doesn't work at all. That is, I have a OneDrive account through my institution that I sign into using SSO, and the OneDrive sync in this app refuses to acknowledge that my OneDrive account exists.
No sync to Box is available. So the Box synch is about as functional as the OneDrive sync but at least it doesn't pretend to exist.

Fonctionnalité perdue (lost functionality)
Since an ipadOS update I suppose, the option to synchronize the view between the tex script and the pdf has disappeared ! Please update to give it back…
Limited sync support and function errors
I was suggested by a youtuber to use this app on my ipad pro.
However, the experience is not as good as introduced. In summary, I don’t think this is a so-called productive app.
1. cmd + F: you cannot continuously start a new word searching after the previous one in the same input line.
2. bad sync support: onedrive is not enough for most of the people.
3. bad local project support: you cannot import a folder or a project into this app. Sharing the latex file seems also impossible.
4. this app has not been updated for more that one year and the mail sent to the developer has no response.
5. unknown errors happened: lipsum.ltd not found. But the same latex file could be compiled by another ipados app.
I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A REFUND!

Clunky interface; no help on ussage; works OK
Don’t do a lot of Latex and anything serious I would do with TexShop on my computer. Tex writer seems to work although I can’t get the minted package to work. My main complaint is if there is any way to start up a fresh tex file from scratch (as in new file) I can’t figure it out. I generally open ivim and do the basics there; write it to my file system on the ipad; and then open it in tex writer. That works but seems like there should be some way to do it all native.

Auf anhieb funktioniert!
Nachdem ich den kompletten appstore durchstöbert habe nach einer Latex app fürs Ipad und keine es gepackt hat, mein übergroßes dokument (Masterarbeit, 50+ seiten, viele packages, viele figures etc) zu öffnen und/oder compilieren, ist diese app dazu im stande gewesen. Einfach geöffnet und compiliert und zack fertig ist das pdf. Sieht exakt gleich aus wie auf meinem Rechner (zu vergleichszwecken).
4 sterne nur weil die Bedienung echt nicht so mächtig ist … file-handling ist sehr mühsam

Excelente aplicación, pero...
Es una muy buena aplicación... es fluida y trabaja sin problemas. El único inconveniente que veo es que no lee .tex que tenga con anterioridad. Tengo entendido que no debe haber problema con esto, pero en mi caso no he logrado abrir ningún .tex que no sea hecho en esta app. Lo curioso es que los .tex creados con esta app si se pueden abrir con cualquier editor LaTeX y compila correctamente.
