Neat feature. I think I might get a lot of use out of it as a "lighter-weight" way to write up documents that include math, using the nice LaTeX syntax, while still keeping the document as a whole WYSIWYG (better for graphics and makes it easier to avoid going back afterward for a fixing-up step). Plus, I can edit from both my Mac and iPhone with automatic sync. (There are existing LaTeX apps for iOS that can do that too, but this seems to be a solid option.)
Edit2: Tried it out on iOS. Two limitations: equations can't wrap across lines, and inserting a new equation requires a few taps - not super cumbersome but enough to discourage a "fluent" style of frequently going in and out of math mode within a sentence. Still useful.
- behnamoh 10y agoWho does this sort of stuff on their iPhone really? Even when they want to demonstrate a nice feature of an app that was originally for Mac, they show it on an iPhone... It's a shame that Mac is getting forgotten :(

- behnamoh 10y agoI know it's available on Mac too. But why use an iPhone image (in the link)? I mean, isn't this sort of stuff originally for Mac?
- Macuyiko 10y agoYou probably now about LyX already, but I found it to be a very solid wysiwyg editor able to spit out tables, images, and formulas in plain Latex.
