Worth having

This is a good tool. No issues so far. Will report back with suggestions or glitches, should I have any.

Thank you for your work!

It works

It works, but it is missing two features that I think are essential: you cannot view the PDF and the source at the same time, and you cannot work on source files saved in other apps’ shared file systems.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your report. We just released a version that displays the editor side by side with the editor (in landscape mode or your can manually enable it in the left sidebar). Please contact us directly if you need help.

Great App

This app has been a godsend while my MacBook is out of commission. It was easy to load and use.

It would be great to have automatic completion for standard \begin ... \end blocks. Also, it would be great to have an immediate way of exporting the Tex file without having to have recourse to iTunes

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your report. If you link your Local Mode projects to Dropbox or Box all your projects incl. tex and pdf files will be automatically synchronized. Please contact us directly if you have any questions.
