Doesn't work effectively. I have very neat handwriting, and I've been told so by multiple people. Unfortunately, this app seems to work sporadically. I can't really rely on it, which means it's effectively useless for my purposes. It's a shame, because it would be fantastic to have something like this and the few times it's worked, the results are incredible. But ultimately the unreliability is a significant blocker - even as a free app

Hi Nitin, we have released the new version of the app.(https://mathpix.com/blog/snip-2.0-ios-android) We worked really hard on handwriting recognition. You should definitely try how it works. Also, check our new drawing features with live preview. Please, rate our app again after testing. Emails us at support@mathpix.com if you need any help.

It's okay. It confused k and x a few times, didn't know "n choose k" and I needed to do a fair amount of hand editting in TexMaker to incorporate it into what I was doing. It pulls in packages I didn't want to use. (mhchem and stmaryrd) Not impressed that I ran out of monthly free snips (10) before I tested whether it was worth it. As a broke grad student, I'd buy with a one-time $10 - $20, but not worth any subscription, esp $60/year. If it wasn't for the pricing, I'd rate it higher.

Hi Rachel! Thank you for your feedback! I'd like to mention that we have a plan for students with 100 free snips and 35 PDF pages per month. And also our yearly Pro subscription costs $49, but not $60. Please, email us (support@mathpix.com) if you need help with getting an Educational account.

First I couldn't set the crop box for the image to the edge of the screen, so I had to add a white border and try again. Then it scanned the image and said: "No content found in image". --- Tried a smaller section of the original image, no success there either. So my experience has been worse than for others. Fortunately they say that they save their logs to improve the APP, so maybe next update. :(
