There is a lot less functionality that the version I used with pages. Is there any way to edit an equation once it has been placed in a google doc? If so, it is not easy to find.

The functionality is good...it's got tons of options. But it's pricy for what you get. I've been able to do nearly everything this does in a basic Word Processing program such as Word for years, so I resent paying for that functionality. Also, you have to open the extension each time and it's super slow. So if you need to fill out a table with multiple equations it's klunky. I want to be able to leave the extension open and move through the document adding equations as needed.

MathType on Google workplace - This app uses password access and compromises on my account. Extremely lousy. Stop that action now, user privacy intruder!

I supposedly had a 30-day trial, but it only worked once. Each subsequent time I opened the extension in google docs a blank MathType dialog box appeared. When it works, it is great. I have used it on my work account. I am leary to purchase for my home computer since the trial did not work.

waw!!! i do not know about !!!it Is there a more computer friend app similar to MATHTYPE out there? If so, who can recommend one that works well with google doc and Microsoft. I agree with the person, who vented along the lines of "...what happened to the good old math type, that was computer friendly and easier to use.." Looking for a supplement app....until then stuck with this one. Any one know if their developers ever look at this and make changes, to better their product, or they simply take peoples money and run

This app is good when it works but it doesn't load correctly every time. It would be great if I could edit the equations once I insert them into my slides. I would not pay for this app. I have only used the free trial version.

It takes so long to open. Why can't I edit it once I insert it? I have to delete it then open a new one and create an expression from scratch. Not user-friendly. Microsoft has it down with their math type.

This app is HORRIBLE!!!! Where is the math type I used for the first 20 years of my teaching career?!?! It was so easy to use with word way back when...this is clunky, not easily editable, I constantly need to go back and forth between the app and my google doc. It's so frustrating! The equation editor(s) both in google docs and in word may not look as pretty as what I have used in the past 20 years, but they function so much better, and I am not waiting (and waiting and waiting) to get my equations inserted. I would not give this any stars...
