# Findings vs LaTeX Editor Tex Pro

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Findings at none against LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's 2. Findings also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 51%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 29). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LaTeX Editor Tex Pro sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Findings asks for nothing beyond the download.

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 1.7K ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Findings's written reviews are positive against 51% of LaTeX Editor Tex Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Findings ships an update monthly, LaTeX Editor Tex Pro every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
