TeX Go vs PocketGit

Pick up your Overleaf project on the train. Version 3.0 imports your Overleaf projects, lets you edit them, and keeps them in sync, as long as the project owner has a paid Overleaf plan. TeX Go is an editor for writing LaTeX, Japanese included, on iPhone and iPad. 【Sync with Overleaf】 Save a Git authentication token once in TeX Go’s Settings, paste a project URL, and the import begins. The project arrives as a folder on your device. While the project is open, your edits are sent to Overleaf automatically, and changes made on Overleaf are pulled in at the interval you choose: 1, 5, or 15 minutes. In a hurry? Tap Sync Now. Imported folders are also visible in the Files app. If the same file changes on both your device and Overleaf, both versions are kept and you choose which one to keep. Your edit stays in the original file; Overleaf’s version is saved as a copy whose name is marked “(Overleaf)”. Compiling happens on your device by default. For supported documents, you get a PDF even where there is no signal. 【What sync needs: a paid plan and a Git token】 Projects whose owner is on a free plan can’t be synced. TeX Go on its own still edits and compiles as it always has. You create the Git authentication token in your Overleaf account settings. TeX Go keeps it in this device’s Keychain and uses it only to sync with Overleaf. Step-by-step instructions are in TeX Go’s Settings, under “Overleaf Setup Guide”. 【No Overleaf? Still a complete LaTeX editor】 • A LaTeX editing environment with Japanese document support • On-device compilation, even offline • Compile-error suggestions from Apple Intelligence (iOS 26 or later, on supported devices with Apple Intelligence turned on; processed on device) • Add packages from .zip files containing .sty or .cls files • Command completion • Create documents from templates • Edit files on your iPhone or iPad and in cloud storage Overleaf is a trademark of its owner. TeX Go is not affiliated with Overleaf and is not endorsed or sponsored by it.
