Works decently well

The Dropbox integration makes it really easy for me to sync my documents between this and my computer. It has worked decently well with the documents I’ve tried with it, although there were some issues at one point where documents I edited on my computer wouldn’t work in this and vice versa but those issues disappeared one day. Overall I’m pleased, although it would be nice if there were more customization options with the appearance of the editor, as well as stuff like more advanced text replacement and macros.

George Japaridze ,

Friendly and easy to use, just:

1. The search does not work - drawback when have document >= 1 page.
2. Could not rename project or file in project.
3. Not clear how to include in project specific routines like sty and use package.

User friendly, nicely synced with Dropbox, easy to use. Definitely recommend.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your report. You can rename the project by pressing the "Rename" button right next to the project. You can also simply add your .sty, .cls, etc. files to your project by putting them in Dropbox or Box or copy them to the Documents folder using iTunes. The app will take care of using them. Please contact us directly if you have any questions.

Works well except for lack of search

A one page document is fine with no search, but to not have a search option in a 20 page document is prohibitive.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your report. A search is already on our todo list. Please contact us directly if you have any questions.
