This is a math equation editor which could export the result as picture, LaTeX, MathML, UnicodeMath(Word). Include variables, binary operators, arrows, relations, brackets, underline, overline, accents, fraction, radical, large operator... Just download and have a try. ----- Functions: 1. Mathematical formula editing. 2. Import & Export - LaTeX (Pages, Keynote) - MathML (Pages, Keynote) - UnicodeMath (Word) - Image - SVG: If the .svg file is exported by xFormula, then it could be imported and edit again. 3. Image recognition - Setup large model API to recognize the math formula in the image. - The recognition of mathematical formulas in large models is getting better and better, but due to the large number of LaTeX commands for mathematical formulas, there may be some situations where the same symbol is different for different commands. xFormula cannot support all LaTeX commands yet, so there may be some exceptions. However, we will continue to optimize and be compatible with more commands in future versions 4. Mathematical formula library: - You can create several formula libraries at the same time, and each formula library can be exported and imported separately; - Under each formula library, there can be many categories, and under each category, there can be many groups. Under each group, formulas can be created and edited - Example 1: High School Mathematics Formula Library > Classification 1: Set, Classification 2: Geometry, Classification 3: Algebra - Example 2: Junior High School Mathematics Formula Library>Classification 1: Rational Numbers, Classification 2: Trigonometric Functions, Classification 3: Geometry 5. Mathematical style: - Due to font limitations, the mathematical formulas currently provided may have some pixel spacing flaws, and each style may also have several mathematical characters that are not supported. Please use them as appropriate. - We will continue to optimize mathematical styles, which is what we are concerned about. 6. Custom keyboard: -The frequency of mathematical symbols used varies at each stage, from elementary school, middle school, high school to university; The frequency of symbols used for sets, limits, matrices, functions, and each knowledge range is also different. So if you use it for a long time or frequently, it is strongly recommended to create a suitable input symbol keyboard for yourself, which is more efficient and saves more time than a universal keyboard. 7. Keyboard Extension - Could be directly used in the form of a keyboard in other text editing software - Due to the system's restrictions on keyboard Extension, there may be some abnormal situations. After installing the keyboard, if it cannot appear in the keyboard list, please restart the device and try again - Although currently compatible with iOS 15, it is recommended to use new devices as old devices may experience loading failures due to memory limitations and other issues 8. Help Document ----- Purchase: 1. This is a paid software and is provided for free download in the hope that users will know what features this software has and whether it is useful before purchasing. 2. As the payment methods for iOS and macOS were not unified when this software was first released, xFormula (iOS) and xFormula (macOS) need to be paid separately. The advantage of separate payment is pricing splitting, which means that if you only have a mobile device and don't have a Mac, you can save on the purchase cost of the Mac. If merged, the pricing will also be the sum of the current two pricing. 3. If you plan to use this software for a long time and consider upgrading more features in the future, it is recommended to purchase the Professional Edition.

This app provides the ability to perform Type I Error hypothesis testing. The null hypothesis and sample size can be specified. Depending on the selected mode, the alpha error or the acceptance or rejection range can be calculated. The different modes offer the possibility of performing right-sided, left-sided or bilateral tests. For this purpose, k1 and/or k2 can be specified for mode I or II. Various modifications can be made to calculate the acceptance and rejection ranges. It is important to note whether X should be greater than/equal to or less than/equal to k. P(X)≤ α is always assumed. The solution is shown step by step. All calculations are saved in history. The final solution can be shared. [ Contents ] - 2 modes to calculate alpha error with right, left or bilateral tests - 4 modes for calculating acceptance and rejection range depending on α - Results are calculated and displayed in detail - History to save input - detailed solution - Natural numbers and decimal numbers are supported depending on the variable - no ads! [ Use ] - There are fields for entering values using a special keyboard - Click on the checkmark button at the bottom right to start the calculation - If values are missing, the corresponding field is highlighted in yellow - If the values are incorrect, the affected field is highlighted in red - a short message explains why a value is incorrect - The entries in the history can be deleted or sorted - When you select an entry in the history, it is automatically loaded for calculation - All history can be deleted at the touch of a button - Solutions can be shared

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: xFormula at Free against Hypothesis Test's $1.99. xFormula also leads on ratings volume (55 vs 1). Hypothesis Test's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.9) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). On update cadence, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
xFormula is free to download; Hypothesis Test costs $1.99 up front. xFormula sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Hypothesis Test asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hypothesis Test holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: xFormula has 55 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
xFormula ships an update every 3 weeks, Hypothesis Test monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 24, 2026 respectively.
