MathKey
MathKey is a mathematical expression editor and calculator for macOS that allows users to type, edit and evaluate mathematical formulas and equations. It integrates with other applications and supports scientific notation, calculus, matrix operations and symbolic computation. The app is distributed through the Setapp subscription service, which bundles hundreds of macOS applications for a single monthly fee.

1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about MathKey's Apple Silicon compatibility. The bundle ID indicates this copy is distributed through Setapp, which means your first step should be to check your Setapp app library — if an updated version with native Apple Silicon support is available, Setapp will offer it automatically. If you still see MathKey listed as Intel-only after checking for Setapp updates, contact Setapp support directly to ask whether a native build is planned. You should also reach out to the developer (Nico Darci) at the product's official site to confirm their native Apple Silicon roadmap. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to clarify the app's status before that deadline. As an alternative, consider mainstream scientific calculators like Soulver (available standalone and via Setapp) or Python-based tools like Jupyter Notebook running natively on Apple Silicon.
