This has made my life better

VerbTeX Pro means that I can now travel only with an iPad and be able to write up maths. That's a huge win for me. The editor might seem a little limited for big documents but, if things are synced with Dropbox, you can use any editor you like, so this is a non-problem. It's great.

Almost superb!

Apart from the fact that one cannot compile Latex documents offline, this app is superb! Add this feature, and the app gets 5 stars!

Good app.

Does what you would want and expect it to do with a nice layout and is easy to use. Linking to Dropbox folder on iPad can be troublesome as often seems to overwrite Dropbox document version with its own saved-elsewhere one when opened. Some means to return to the same point in a pdf after rebuilding a document would be nice too...

Not worth the money I paid

I don't know what this is all about and where this guy studied UI design. This is quite frankly the worst piece of software I just wasted my good money on.
