MathType edges out Photo Editor on rating (3.9★ vs 3.6★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: MathType at Free of charge trial, Photo Editor at Free of charge. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. MathType has the larger user base (2,438 reviews vs 450), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Photo Editor's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to MathType; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Photo Editor's 450-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than MathType's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Google Workspace Marketplace listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.

Both apps are one-click installs from the Google Workspace Marketplace marketplace. MathType has more onboarding documentation maturity (2,438 reviews vs 450), which usually translates to better-tested setup wizards and quicker time-to-value.

MathType typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (2,438 reviews). Photo Editor aligns more with early-stage and growth-mode stores (450 reviews). Larger review bases generally mean the app has been load-tested at scale — relevant if you're processing high order volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. MathType and Photo Editor both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from Photo Editor" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
