Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Logseq at none against LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's 2. Logseq also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 252). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LaTeX Editor Tex Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LaTeX Editor Tex Pro has 1.6K ratings behind it against 252, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's written reviews are positive against 59% of Logseq's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LaTeX Editor Tex Pro ships an update every 2 months, Logseq every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
