MathPad for Negative User Reviews
✓ 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..Version: 1.0
✓ Mathpad sighMathpad for the iPad is a great idea but the program is very hard to use..Version: 1.5
✓ HelpMaybe I am missing something but I can't seem to figure this free version out. I can create shells of expressions and can move them around but can't fill them with numbers or variables. I just want to create math practice for my students. Is there an app for that?.Version: 1.8
✓ Not very good is it?!Probably the most unintuitive app I have downloaded. Doesn't let you do anything with ease or indeed anything worthwhile at all..Version: 21.0
✓ BuggedOk so I tried the app once and when I went to use it again I clicked on the xy2 or Aa button and it closed. I tried reinstalling and deleting it several times but still no luck..Version: 1.5
✓ Shows promise.The idea is good, but the functionality is terrible. I tried typing out the Cosine rule as a test, but the ^2 button inserts a squared sign after the cursor point, and there is no way to move forward or backward through text, so I got stuck immediately. What's more, once something is typed, it's completely unchangeable. Make a mistake? Start a new document. It really is a good concept. A Maths typing app would be incredibly useful for school students, university students, and anyone who ever needs to use difficult maths in their job. But in its current state, it is completely unusable. Please update..Version: 1.8
✓ Meeh..The idea is fine.. But it doesnt work.. I cant see what im doing, Anyways.. Delete plx :s.Version: 1.0
✓ 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..Version: 4.3
✓ Too many glitchesThe 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!!!!!.Version: 1.7
✓ NopeNot intuitive to use. Not at all useful as assistive tech for elementary student..Version: 4.3
✓ CrashesOk when first loaded or reloaded but crashes when you try to use it again. Has now become completely unresponsive to the keyboard. Would have emailed you rather than put this in a review but no option for this. Please sort as it looks very good potentially..Version: 1.0
✓ Awful...App won't even allow you to write standard double-angle notation (i.e., cos^2(x), etc.)..Version: 2.04
✓ Good appGood app but very slow...takes about 5 seconds till the number appears after pressing it...please fix then i'd be happy to buy the full version...ipad 3!.Version: 1.5
✓ Waste of timeI 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..Version: 3.3
✓ Don't waste your timeA useless piece of junk. The keyboard doesn't work right. In fact, nothing does..Version: 1.0
✓ Shockingly badIt is unresponsive, unintuitive, frustrating, inflexible; it is just generally bad..Version: 1.4
✓ UnusableI tried to import a Mathpad.mp from version 2.6.5, no go. Couldn't even copy/paste. Tried to type formulas - would not recognize my add on Apple keyboard on iPad. Typing by selecting characters from a list is slower than carving on a stone tablet and about as primitive. Version 2.6.5 is powerful and very useable. This version (26 something) is useless. Deleted app. 0 stars if I could..Version: 26.8
✓ 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..Version: 11.2
✓ Ads blocks entry keyboardLast 2 rows of keyboard is blocked by ads and not usable. Is this by design?.Version: 26.5
✓ Poor app, disappointing.Truly disappointing app. I was really looking forward to this app, it looked like I finally had something like Mathcad for my iPad. There are no instructions on how to use this app. Everything I tried seemed to just vanish. Nothing seems to work as expected, and no instructions or help available. Truly disappointing..Version: 1.0
✓ 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..Version: 1.4
✓ 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!.Version: 1.1
✓ BrokenIn response to the developer: I am happy to send you a screen recording showing you that they keyboard will not appear automatically nor that the document will fill the screen.Hopefully you can work out the bugs as this looks like great software idea. Original Review: No keyboard and too small for an iPad Pro 12”. Don’t waste your money..Version: 26.6
✓ Mise àjourLa mise à jour ne s'exécute pas.Version: 2.10
✓ No keyboardJust installed and tried it out or tried to. Never showed me a keyboard, just a pop up to buy it. If I can't try it out, I'm not going to buy it. Uninstalling it now.....Version: 4.0
✓ Kind of awful.Are you serious? I keep having to reinstall this app when things in one of my documents go everywhere on the screen..Version: 24.0
✓ A Math Typewriter?Like the title says, all I can do with this is type equations. If this app can solve the equations typed then we got something going on here..Version: 1.1
✓ ReviewPlease put retina support in apart from that its perfect.Version: 2.03
✓ Mrs.I would give 0 stars. App is horrible! Save your money. Does not work at all. I am a math teacher looking for math type and thought I had found it. Instructions are of no help either. :-(.Version: 1.2
✓ ClunkyIt looks like there are a ton of cool uses, but it's too hard to manipulate them for my class..Version: 2.04
✓ Fonctionne pasIncapable d’ouvrir un nouveau dossier pour commencer..Version: 27.0
