MATLAB Mobile 4+

I used to have a problem loading live scripts but that seemed to go away since. The only reason I have it 4 stars is because if I have the app in the background for too long, it will disconnect. This forces me to wait to reconnect before using the app or just having to close the app entirely. If I didn’t have to reconnect every time after having the app in the background it would be perfect. Otherwise I really like the app.

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you are having problems to load live scripts. Please reach out to us with more details about the problem (and error messages if present) at support@mathworks.com – we are happy to investigate further.

This app produces exceptional performance on iPad/iPhone considering it can process results faster than most of my college’s desktop computers. I’ve run into a small issue figures. MATLAB seems to create permanent figures that cannot be cleared with the clear function. Each overwrite with new data confuses the figure and plots the old data, or simply omits the new data. The resolution to the bug(s) seems to be removing app and redownloading. Overall, the app works great with the files app. Creating, moving, renaming, etc. work wonderfully in both apps. Data collection with device sensors also works great. PS: I expect that MATLAB could/should replace clunky Pasco Capstone software (commonly found in physics classrooms) if resources were available and taught in previous classes. I do wish I had access to and knew how to use Matlab in high school.
(Edit) I’m still learning Matlab.

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are happy that you are enjoying the app. You can close individual figures selecting the share icon on the top right of the figure view or simply use the "close all" command to delete all your figures. If you have more questions, feel free to reach out to us at support@mathworks.com.

The iPads hardware continues to match forward and Mathworks isn’t taking advantage of that. An app such as Pythonista gives a first class Python IDE taking advantage of local file providers (to use working copy for git). And it’s completely developed by one person. Super disappointing considering it basically hasn’t improved to even do basic file operations (import from other apps, let alone external file provider support). Given all of the made per matlab license I would think even a simplified version of full matlab would be possible.

If you’re looking for a viewer for your files already in the mathworks cloud this is fine. For real development work especially using git version control, this is a joke. If you have a choice in the matter learn Python get Pythonista and leave mathworks proprietary stuff behind.

Hello, thank you for the feedback and the vote for more advanced file options (like import, version control etc.). We're in the process of enhancing our capabilities when working with files and will take your comments into consideration for future releases.
