Description
Archimedes is a Markdown editor designed to make mathematical writing easy with inline LaTeX support.
MARKDOWN EDITING
At its core, Archimedes is a fully-featured plain text and Markdown editor. It includes a fast syntax highlighter and provides convenient keyboard shortcuts for common actions, such as inserting images and links. With complete support for Markdown and the Format Bar floating above the keyboard, Archimedes makes formatting and structuring documents elegant and easy.
MATH MODE + AUTOCOMPLETE
In Math Mode, Archimedes lets you write mathematics in a subset of LaTeX, making it an approachable LaTeX editor. Just enter $$ to get started. Over 700 intuitive commands, such as \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}, help you produce stunning mathematical output. Archimedes even autocompletes commands and intelligently matches closing braces, brackets, and parenthesis as you type.
MAGIC TYPE
Just getting started with LaTeX syntax? Don't know the code for the asymptotically equal symbol? Just draw it! Archimedes will recognize the symbol and insert the corresponding code for you.
LIVE PREVIEW
As you work, a beautifully-typeset live preview of your document is always visible. You can even select a custom theme, and Dark Mode is fully supported. Themes come with various font faces.
MATH LIBRARY
Browse the math library to see all available LaTeX commands and their previews in one place.
NAVIGATOR
Working on a long document? Use the Navigator to pull up a table of contents and quickly jump between sections.
IMAGES
Insert images from your Photos library, via the Document Camera, or by drawing sketches right inside the document.
DOCUMENT SYNC
Archimedes is the only app of its kind that supports syncing documents via iCloud with its Mac counterpart.
SHARING
Share your work with the rest of the world via email, iMessage, AirDrop, and more. Export documents to the Files app in PDF or HTML formats. You can even print with AirPrint.
SEARCH
Use the Find bar to quickly find text in any document.
STATISTICS
View the character count, word count, and reading time as you work.
KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
Take advantage of Magic Keyboard and keyboard shortcuts to quickly navigate the app.

Ratings and Reviews
Rare Combination of Features
Finally! A markdown editor that:
- has a 1-time purchase, not a subscription
- doesn’t require a proprietary format or vault
- has a live preview split alongside the editor
- auto-formats common markdown syntax
- syncs silently with Nextcloud, GDrive, others
Essentially, what I wanted from Obsidian but even better? Barring major bugs or drawbacks, this will be my go-to writing app on iPad.
