Needs Manual !!!!

I downloaded this app and after playing with it, watching the less than 1 minute tutorials multiple times, and reading the "how to use notes" multiple times, over the course of almost two hours; I could not enter the simplest of expressions using the app. There is no way I would pay anything for this app. I am certain that once you figure out how to navigate the app, after how many hours I can only imagine, you might be able to enter 2 + 2. This app needs better user instruction, without them it is a pure waste of my time and energy. I am better off with pencil, paper, and a scanner to communicate my ideas and equations.

Can't export without paying up.

If the developers want to charge for saving "MultiDocs" they can-- but exporting should be standard. Unfortunately if I want to clip my notes to another app I need to buy the "MultiDocs". MultiDocs is marketed as a "module" but the app is useless without it. This isn't a "free" version, it's a trial in disguise. And maybe that could be forgiven if the app wasn't ugly, slow, confusing and crash-ridden. Of particular note is the use of weird icons. Is that the share icon? I dunno, looks like the old iOS 6 one… kinda? What does the folder icon do? Dunno, I need "MultiDocs". You have to toggle between two keyboards and the backspace doesn't go back and… ugh.

Great concept!

This is a great concept, especially for kids with disgraphia. I'd like to see it do more stuff specifically for elementary and middle school math like mixed fractions, spaces and semicolons in the math notation. I have some challenges using drag and drop and consistency of selecting and editing formulas, but the concept is great.

Good start but lacking "undo"

This app has a good interface, but lacking the undo feature, it is not usable for anything other than a proof of concept. I hope the developer remedies this because I think the app is easy to use and has a lot of potential.

Waste of time

I don't ordinarily write reviews of apps, but this app aggravated me so much I needed to warn others.I am a math teacher and rather tech savy, I usually use tablet PCs but this year am experimenting with the iPad as an instructional vehicle.I downloaded this app to whip up equations to import into notability for my class. I was unsuccessful in doing anything productive for approximately 20 minutes.The documentation is insufficient, and the interface is not intuitive or functional as far as I can tell.I brought up the special "math" keyboard and was utterly dumbfounded as to why it was so poorly done. I couldn't create a simple equation that included an exponent without having to constantly tap and fidget with the awkward interface of this app.I had hoped for something like math-type but got something completely non-useful. I'd avoid it if I were you.

Has Potential, but---?

I gave this app a one-star rating, but did it with regret. The idea is good. Though somewhat overloaded, the math keyboard seems pretty logical. I also like being able to try it out for free, then pay for functionality (ability to save, export, etc.).I think the killer, as of now, is the almost complete lack of instructions:the "help" menu is one of the sketchiest I have seen. I tried to write an integral, one of my most common needs, and got hung up. There was no indication about how to complete the symbol.I say good luck. Improve your instructions with an immediate update, or it will be a loser. Otherwise, might be great.

Nice App, But Some things need to be fixed.

I am a math tutor for high school and college students. From time to time, I need an app like MathPad to send notes to some of my students. However, after typing 3 lines of mathematical expressions (answers to worksheet answers written out) the virtual keyboard blocks the view of what I'm trying to type. There is also no way to scroll up and down the document to make sure the expressions are what you want them to be. Finally, the explenation of gestures for certain commands is very small and hard to see.

Too many glitches

The app would be marvelous if it WORKED!!! I tried to make a review sheet for one of my tutorial students, but failed miserably due to sparse instructional help and lack of communication between the pad and the app. It's as if the app wasn't made for the iPad, but for some other system, and it's like someone unlocked it for the iPad, causing it to work at a SUBPAR level. My fingers STILL hurt from trying to double-click on an expression to alter it! Just so...FRUSTRATING!!!!!

Hmm...

It's good once you figure out how to use it, but I'm having problems resizing/rearranging equations below the point where you have to scroll down from the top... Every time I try, the app freezes for a minute, and when it unfreezes, nothing happens.

Promising, but not there yet...

This app is the closest thing so far to a real WYSIWYG Math type editor for the iPad. Although this app shows great potential, it falls short of what I need. Unfortunately, this app does not support function notation ( i.e. f(x) ) or implicit multiplication, among other things. Currently, the only way you can type f(x) is if you type it as normal text, and you cannot type something like 2(1/x) in Math type, without it showing a dot for multiplication. Please add these features in the next update!
