### "Enhance your computational skills" — 4.0/5

> **Abhishek** | *12 November 2020* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Any product from MathWorks deserves respect and this app is a great addition to the software that is already installed on your computer. This app helps to work on the same code on the desktop/ laptop, while on the go. It provides wonderful flexibility for assessing and modifying the code , while not being in front of the computer.
> 
> **Cons**: This tool is not a replacement to your product on your computer. I still feel the main functionality lies on working on the computer; however,  this tools helps in supporting the task.
